Flourishing through adventure learning: A (semi)cautionary tale

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies suggest that adventure learning can develop children's cognitive skills and promote social and emotional learning. However, evidence is needed as to whether the design of adventure learning—school‐based or external/residential—plays a role in that development/promotion, and whether learning gains are maintained.

Calcified Plaque Detachment: Alternative Calcified Plaque Modification After Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified plaque (CP) detachment (CD) and calcium fracture (CF) can occur following coronary intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). The extent to which CF alone facilitates stent expansion during CP modification with IVL remains unclear. Aims This study aimed to investigate the clinical implications of IVL‐induced CD.

Increase in plant productivity in the tundra in Sweden is not related to increasing presence of warm‐adapted vascular plant species

Ecography, EarlyView.
Over the past decades, Arctic and alpine biomes have warmed faster than the global average. Substantial vegetation changes have been reported as a response to this warming, including increased productivity and the spread of warm‐adapted (thermophilic) species that are less resistant to grazing pressure into higher latitudes and altitudes.

Gene signatures characterizing driver mutations in lung squamous carcinoma are predictive of the progression of pre‐cancer lesions

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is more aggressive than lung adenocarcinoma, and is most often diagnosed at an advanced stage. Here, the authors evaluated gene expression data from LUSC tumors and came up with gene signatures for 34 genetic abnormalities whose expression changes throughout different precancerous stages. Several of these

Warm‐wet transition restructures arid lake microbiomes and functional potential

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This study summarizes how a long‐term warm‐dry to warm‐wet transition restructures microbiomes and functional potential in Lake Bosten, an arid lake in northwestern China. Warm‐wet hydroclimatic change increased water level and hydrological connectivity, while decreasing salinity and total nitrogen.
