Sex-specific effects of a parasite evolving in a female-biased host population
BMC Biology, 2012 Background Males and females differ in many ways and might present different opportunities and challenges to their parasites. In the same way that parasites adapt to the most common host type, they may adapt to the characteristics of the host sex they ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Disentangling of Local and Wide-Field Motion Adaptation
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021 Motion adaptation has been attributed in flying insects a pivotal functional role in spatial vision based on optic flow. Ongoing motion enhances in the visual pathway the representation of spatial discontinuities, which manifest themselves as velocity ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...

Microbial effects and home‐field advantage in holm oak (Quercus ilex) germination
EcosphereGermination is a critical process influenced by multiple abiotic and biotic factors and depends on the interaction between microorganisms and the environment. As plants select specific sets of microbes that evolve together in response to local conditions,

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
