Impact of Clear Aligners on the Temporomandibular Joint: A Systematic Review

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) may experience alterations during orthodontic treatments. Furthermore, gaps in the literature highlight a lack of robust evidence on the impact of clear aligner therapy (CAT) on the TMJ. This review aims to find the current evidence regarding the effects of CAT on the TMJ. Electronic searches were conducted in

Limited drought tolerance in the neotropical seasonally dry forest plants impairs future species richness

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Global climate change will likely modify the plant assemblages of the Neotropical seasonally dry forest based on the physiological capabilities of the species. Abstract Neotropical seasonal dry forest (NSDF) is one of the most threatened ecosystems according to global climate change predictions.

Exotic aromatic B-series for the study of long time integrators for a class of ergodic SDEs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We introduce a new algebraic framework based on a modification (called exotic) of aromatic Butcher-series for the systematic study of the accuracy of numerical integrators for the invariant measure of a class of ergodic stochastic differential equations (

The role of tropical forest fragment vegetation in maintaining arthropod diversity and spillover to adjacent sugarcane fields O papel da vegetação de fragmentos de floresta tropical na manutenção da diversidade de artrópodes e na sua disseminação para campos de cana‐de‐açúcar adjacentes

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 82-93, February 2026.
Tree diversity increases arthropod richness and the abundance of beneficial arthropod groups within Atlantic Forest fragments. Higher insect richness in forest fragments is associated with greater richness in adjacent sugarcane fields, and both habitats share insect families, suggesting spillover.

Hydraulic architecture of lianas in a semiarid climate: efficiency or safety?

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2015
Xylem anatomical traits can provide insights regarding the mechanisms affecting the distribution of vascular plants across environmental gradients. In this study, we aimed to investigate the hypothesis that lianas occurring in semiarid environments have ...

Changes in the carbon balance of tropical forest: evidence from long-term plots [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The role of the world’s forests as a “sink” for atmospheric carbon dioxide is the subject of active debate. Long-term monitoring of plots in mature humid tropical forests concentrated in South America revealed that biomass gain by tree growth exceeded ...

Las lianas como recurso alimentario para el mono aullador (Alouatta guariba) y el muriqui meridional (Brachyteles arachnoides) en un área forestal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Las lianas (enredaderas leñosas) son muy abundantes y presentan una gran diversidad en las selvas tropicales; sin embargo no se ha tenido en cuenta su contribución relativa como fuente de alimento para los herbívoros.
