Postoperative rehabilitation after transtibial pullout repair of medial meniscus posterior root tears: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To characterise rehabilitation protocols after transtibial pullout repair for medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) and evaluate whether study‐level rehabilitation parameters were associated with longitudinal changes in patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs).

Benefit or ecological trap? Monitoring the effects of small clear‐cuts on capercaillie Tetrao urogallus and its mammalian predators

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The shift to ‘close to nature forestry' as the dominating forestry regime in western‐European forests has resulted in increasing timber volume and denser forests with negative effects on photophilic species. Hence, there is an increasing focus on active habitat management measures to support these species.

Comparative evaluation of noninvasive DNA sampling and line transect surveys for spring density estimation of black grouse and capercaillie

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Reliable abundance estimates provide essential information in ecology, conservation and management of many wild grouse populations. In this 3‐year study, we comparatively evaluate the suitability of traditional line transect distance sampling of flushed birds versus a spatial capture–recapture survey with noninvasive DNA samples for individual ...

Ecology of greater sage-grouse populations inhabiting the northwestern Wyoming Basin

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Range-wide population declines of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse) have been largely attributed to habitat loss and fragmentation. However, the specific conservation threats affecting the ecology of sage-grouse populations may

The performance of drones and artificial intelligence for monitoring sage‐grouse at leks

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Accurately monitoring sage‐grouse populations is critical for conservation, yet traditional ground‐based visual surveys face challenges in scalability and consistency, prompting the exploration of innovative drone‐based methodologies enhanced by artificial intelligence.

The importance of simulation assumptions when evaluating detectability in population models

Ecosphere, 2019
Population monitoring is important for investigating a variety of ecological questions, and N‐mixture models are increasingly used to model population size (N) and trends (λ) while estimating detectability (p) from repeated counts within primary periods (

Adipokines in Obese Asthma: A Complex Relationship Influenced More by Sex, Weight, and Oral Steroid Treatment Than Disease Severity

Allergy, EarlyView.
Adipokine secretion from adipose tissue may be involved in obesity‐related asthma, but it is unknown how adipokine levels relate to asthma characteristics. Plasma adipokines were measured in well‐characterized lean, overweight or obese patients with mild‐to‐moderate or severe asthma.

Sustained Clinical Improvement in Birch Pollen Allergy After Two Pre‐Seasonal Short Courses of Allergen‐Specific Immunotherapy: A Long‐Term Open‐Label Extension Study

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
3 years follow‐up study to a DBPC dose‐finding trial investigating subcutaneous immunotherapy with T502 in birch‐pollen induced allergic rhinoconjunctivitis. 154 birch‐pollen allergic adults received short‐course treatment of 10,000 mTU/mL of T502 for 2 years and were observed during the next season without treatment.

Greater sage‐grouse dynamics are influenced by winter temperature rather than indices of grazing, drought, and breeding season weather in a northern Great Plains population

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We evaluated the impacts of grazing, climatic variability, and vegetation productivity on the population dynamics of a northern Great Plains greater sage‐grouse population. We found winter temperature influenced annual population growth rates, but did not detect influences of drought, breeding season weather, vegetation productivity or short‐term ...

Aristocratic identification in Felix’s Life of Guthlac

Early Medieval Europe, EarlyView.
Recent scholarship often sees high‐born monastics and clerics in early Christian England as part of the aristocratic class. Modern identity theories, however, suggest that social identity could be dynamic, situational, processual and discursive. In light of this concept, the present article reads Felix’s Life of Guthlac as a text that constructs an ...
