Endocrine Functions of Bone Are Suppressed by Orally Administered Glucose Regardless of Bodyweight

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Bone is a target for diabetic complications, but the impact of metabolic changes on bone metabolism is less understood. Bones participate in energy metabolism by via secreted osteokines. Glucose ingestion reduces bone resorption, but the effects on osteokines remain unknown.

Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

A closer look at Doleac and Mukherjee (2022) and the effects of naloxone access laws on opioid ER admissions

Economic Inquiry, EarlyView.
Abstract In their 2022 study, ‘The Effects of Naloxone Access Laws on Opioid Abuse, Mortality, and Crime,’ Doleac and Mukherjee conclude that broadening access to a life‐saving drug—naloxone—does not reduce opioid‐related mortality as the drug simultaneously encourages riskier drug use. I show issues with their data, design, and estimation methods. For
