occumb: An R package for site occupancy modeling of eDNA metabarcoding data
This study introduces a new R package, occumb, for the convenient application of site occupancy modeling using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding data. We outline a data analysis workflow, including data setup, model fitting, model assessment, and comparison of potential study settings based on model predictions, all of which can be performed using

Multiple Sclerosis: Multiple Etiologies, Multiple Genes?
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by multifocal damage of the central nervous system myelin. Both humoral and cell-mediated immune abnormalities have been observed in patients with multiple sclerosis, but their relation to the demyelination process is not understood. The etiology of the disease is still unknown; however,

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

The Fibonacci sequence \(\{F_ n\}\) is defined as follows: \(F_ 0=0\), \(F_ 1=1\), \(F_ k=F_{k-1}+F_{k-2}\) for \(k\geq 2\). A well-known theorem, due to Zeckendorf, states that every natural number has a unique representation as a sum of distinct Fibonacci numbers, if we stipulate that \(F_ 0\) and \(F_ 1\) are not used in the representation and that ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Multiplicativity factors and mixed multiplicativity
The author continues his work on the multiplicativity of operator and matrix norms [see ibid. 73, 123-131 (1986; Zbl 0588.15014)] and his joint paper with \textit{E. G. Strauss} [ibid. 52, 351-360 (1983; Zbl 0516.15025)]. Now the case of rectangular matrices is treated. The interested reader may learn in observation 2.2 that the multiplicativity factor
