Ecology, 2014 Negative density dependence (NDD) and habitat specialization have received strong empirical support as mechanisms that explain tree species diversity maintenance and distribution in tropical forests. In contrast, disturbance appears to play only a minor role.

Gerodontology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Periodontitis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory condition that frequently co‐occurs with systemic chronic diseases. Although older adults experience a high burden of both periodontitis and chronic conditions, the extent to which age‐specific evidence has been synthesised remains unclear.

PlantsCanopy lianas differ considerably from trees in terms of wood anatomical structure, and they are suggested to have a demographic advantage—faster growth and higher survival—than trees.

Ibis, EarlyView.Human‐induced environmental change is reshaping plant communities, requiring native animals to adapt their foraging behaviour to track and exploit novel food resources. Trees such as pines (Pinus spp.) introduced for plantation forestry outside of their native ranges often become naturalized.

Lianas as a food resource for brown howlers (Alouatta guariba) and southern muriquis (Brachyteles arachnoides) in a forest fragment [PDF]
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2009 Lianas as a food resource for brown howlers (Alouatta guariba) and southern muriquis (Brachyteles arachnoides) in a forest fragment.— Lianas, woody vines, are abundant and diverse in tropical forests, but their relative contribution as a source of food ...

Mapping malignant T‐cell states and immune circuits in Sézary syndrome by single‐cell analysis
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.Peripheral blood single‐cell RNA‐seq from leukaemic CTCL defined three malignant T‐cell programmes: MTC CM, MTC Reg and MTC E/EM, each with distinct features and candidate vulnerabilities. For example, inferred immune circuits highlighted actionable IL‐10/JAK–TYK2–STAT3 signalling, KIR–MHC I inhibitory interactions and myeloid/B‐cell inflammatory and ...

Neural correlates of pure apathy in multiple sclerosis: An exploratory neuroimaging study
Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.Abstract Pure apathy is relatively common in people with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS), but its neural mechanisms remain unexplored. Therefore, we investigated the neural correlates of pure apathy in PwMS, differentiating it from depression. Sixty‐two PwMS underwent neuropsychological assessments and Magnetic Resonance Imaging scans.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.A well‐preserved 20 post‐conception week human brain was obtained and finely dissected into 18 anatomically distinct regions, including the pia mater. Each region underwent in‐depth proteomic analysis, encompassing both total protein content and post‐translational modifications.
