Floristic diversity, composition and dominance across Amazonian forest types respond differently to latitude

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 685-698, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim The latitudinal biodiversity gradient is considered a first‐order biogeographical pattern for most taxonomic groups. Latitudinal variation in plant diversity is not always consistent, and this could be related to the particular characteristics of different forest types.

The efficacy of subcutaneous slow‐release melatonin implants in the prevention of canine flank alopecia recurrence is uncertain: A double‐blind, randomized, placebo‐controlled study

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 553-558, December 2022., 2022
Background – Canine flank alopecia (CFA) is characterized by seasonally recurring noninflammatory, occasionally hyperpigmented alopecia predominantly in the thoracolumbar area. Previous studies suggest that reduced production of endogenous melatonin may play a role in the pathogenesis of this condition, and placebo‐controlled studies on the efficacy of

Pain trajectories and well‐being in children and young people with cerebral palsy: A cohort study

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 64, Issue 11, Page 1416-1424, November 2022., 2022
What this paper adds Five distinct 5‐week pain intensity trajectories were identified in children/young people with cerebral palsy. Thirty‐two per cent of participants had moderate‐to‐high pain intensity trajectories. Participants in the trajectories with higher pain intensity reported lower physical and psychological well‐being.

Mattering and parental presence in systemic therapy using nonviolent resistance: The utilization of imaginary methods

Family Process, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 507-519, June 2022., 2022
An empowered sense of “self” is crucial for emotional well‐being and positive relationships. Certain family interaction patterns can disrupt the adult's sense of “mattering” to the child, eroding their perceived self‐efficacy. Mattering can be understood as a felt sense of relational agency which is necessary for experiencing one's interactions as ...

Importance of health assessments for conservation in noncaptive wildlife

Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 1, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Wildlife health assessments help identify populations at risk of starvation, disease, and decline from anthropogenic impacts on natural habitats. We conducted an overview of available health assessment studies in noncaptive vertebrates and devised a framework to strategically integrate health assessments in population monitoring.
