The Difference in Shear Behavior and Strength between Loess and Paleosol and Their Prediction of Unsaturated Strength

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In recent decades, loess landslide events have attracted increasing attention in the South Jingyang tableland. To elucidate the mechanical mechanism of landslide initiation in the region, this work collected undisturbed loess and paleosol samples taking ...

Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Early Detection of Lower Adherence to Long‐Term e‐Diary Recording: A Checkpoint to Target Early Educational Intervention in Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis?

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
Adherence to e‐Diary reporting was investigated in a blended care setting among pollen allergic patients with heterogeneous cultural backgrounds. A stable ‘higher’ and a more variable ‘lower’ adherence cluster were identified. Early identification of lower adherence is possible and might inform early interventions to improve patient adherence.

Turf track surface interaction with speed and musculoskeletal injury risk in Thoroughbred racehorses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Injury modelling based on changes in speed and stride characteristics of racehorses has become a primary industry focus for the Thoroughbred racing industry. However, speed and stride characteristics are strongly associated with track condition; therefore, reliable quantification of surface variables for use in future models is ...

Opposing roles of DGAT‐mediated lipid droplet biogenesis in the regulation of ferroptosis sensitivity

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ferroptosis is driven by unrestricted peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acyl (PUFA) chains in membrane phospholipids. In triple‐negative breast cancer cells, lipid droplets (LDs) sequester dietary PUFAs, limiting their incorporation into membrane phospholipids, preventing mitochondrial damage, and reducing lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

Beyond the Ratios: Evidence for Optimal Minimum Nurse‐Patient‐Ratios in Medical‐Surgical Settings

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the maximum number of patients per nurse before quality and safety outcomes deteriorate in medical‐surgical settings. Design A secondary analysis of cross‐sectional survey data. Methods We analysed data from 609 direct care nurses working in British Columbia's medical‐surgical areas.

Mobilising Judicial Voices: How and Why National Courts Express Their Opinions in the Preliminary Reference Procedure – A Case Study of Czechia

open access: yesJCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article interrogates the national courts' pre‐emptive opinions expressed in the Article 267 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union preliminary reference procedure from both theoretical and analytical angles. First, we theorise about the variety of factors influencing national courts' decision to supply the Court of Justice

Do Laboratory‐Reared Flies Perform Differently as Pollinators? Morphology, Behaviour and Pollination Performance of Eristalis tenax (Syrphidae)

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flies (Diptera) are important pollinators in global agriculture, yet little is known about how intraspecific trait variation influences their pollination performance. We compared morphological traits, foraging behaviour and pollination‐related performance metrics between laboratory‐reared (hereafter lab‐reared) and wild populations of ...

Individual variability in activity patterns in Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) revealed using pop‐up satellite tags

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding fish behaviour and activity patterns is essential for interpreting their ecology and the processes that shape population dynamics, yet such information remains limited for wild fishes because observing individuals in situ is challenging.
