Embedded Interactions and Selective Disclosure: Network Effects on Conversations aboard Skylab

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
How do absent others influence our interactions? We argue in this paper that interactions are embedded within networks formed by chains of specific relationships between known third parties. The anticipation of future interactions with external others conditions our interpretation of the current situation and affects our behavior in the interaction. We

European Mistletoe (Viscum album) Extract Is Cytotoxic to Canine High-Grade Astrocytoma Cells In Vitro and Has Additive Effects with Mebendazole

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2022
Malignant gliomas are associated with extremely poor clinical outcomes in both humans and dogs, and novel therapies are needed. Glioma-bearing canine patients may serve as promising preclinical models for human therapies, including complementary medicine.

A Case Report on Rehabilitation of the Asiatic Black Bear (Ursus thibetanus ussuricus) in the Wild 亚洲黑熊 (Ursus thibetanus ussuricus) 野外放归野化案例报告

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.

Seasonality and plasticity in the use of native and introduced plant resources by a large forest parrot

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Human‐induced environmental change is reshaping plant communities, requiring native animals to adapt their foraging behaviour to track and exploit novel food resources. Trees such as pines (Pinus spp.) introduced for plantation forestry outside of their native ranges often become naturalized.

A global review of mistletoe frugivory and seed dispersal: The plant perspective

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
We reviewed studies on mistletoe frugivory and seed dispersal worldwide. Although mistletoes are relatively well studied, major taxonomic, geographic, and methodological gaps remain. We conclude that modern technologies offer new opportunities to address long‐standing but still poorly explored questions about these interactions.

Spontaneous regression of equine sarcoids is an exceptional event

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 4, Page 889-894, July 2026.
Abstract Sarcoids are benign, yet locally aggressive skin tumours that commonly affect horses and other equid species. The lesions are induced by bovine papillomavirus types 1, 2, and probably 13 in conjunction with other factors including trauma and a genetic predisposition.

Functional and species composition of understory plants varies with mistletoe-infection on Vachellia karroo trees in a semi-arid African savanna

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2021
In savanna ecosystems, tree canopy patches differ in plant species composition compared to adjacent intercanopy spaces due to different levels of resource availabilities. Mistletoes further augment nutrients underneath tree canopies whilst reducing their
