Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Direct comparative data on periodontal regeneration (PR) versus extraction and implant placement remain limited. Tooth‐specific periodontal conditions such as furcation involvement and overall tooth prognosis may dictate success or failure of such treatment.

Drivers of intrapopulation variation in resource use in a generalist predator, the macaroni penguin [PDF]
Intrapopulation variation in resource use occurs in many populations of generalist predators with important community and evolutionary implications. One of the hypothesised mechanisms for such widespread variation is ecological opportunity, i.e. resource

Approach to Nail Pitting in Pediatric and Adolescent Patients: A Dermatology Perspective
JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This narrative review aims to discuss the etiologies of nail pitting in pediatric and adolescent patients, while providing a framework for further evaluation of possible underlying systemic conditions and their clinical findings from a dermatologic standpoint.

Oikos, EarlyView.Competition theory suggests that interspecific prey competition can result in changes to the dietary niche, but obtaining timeseries of data from sympatric species experiencing temporal variation in competition is challenging. Scotland is an important area for two species of seals, but over the past 20 years, populations of harbour seals Phoca vitulina

Oikos, EarlyView.Some prey species have evolved background matching, that is they resemble their surrounding environment in terms of colour and/or brightness. When prey populations inhabit patchy environments, they may even have evolved specialised phenotypes: each phenotype matching a specific subset of patches.

Protein folding and the robustness of cells
, 2007 The intricate intracellular infrastructure of all known life forms is based on proteins. The folded shape of a protein determines both the protein’s function and the set of molecules it will bind to.

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Nacho Nyäk Tagé (Stewart River) watershed in central Yukon (Canada) is characterized by discontinuous permafrost that is locally highly sensitive to thaw. This study aims to map the spatial distribution of permafrost terrain disturbances (PTDs) in the watershed and model thaw susceptibility to support community‐led land‐use planning by the

Body size changes in passerine birds introduced to New Zealand from the UK [PDF]
, 2013 One feature of global geographic variation in avian body sizes is that they are larger on isolated islands than on continental regions. Therefore, this study aims to assess whether there have been changes in body size following successful establishment ...

A framework linking silicon fertilisation, plant silicification and soil carbon cycling
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Soil organic carbon (SOC) is vital for soil health, food security, and climate change mitigation. We reviewed how silicon (Si) fertilisers, commonly used to improve plant health, may also influence SOC dynamics. We developed a framework linking Si and SOC and discussed the possibility of Si‐mediated plant changes contributing to SOC sequestration.
