Nesting Preference, Nesting Biology and Associated Natural Enemies of Chalichadoma flavipes Spinola, 1838 (hymenoptera: Megachilidae)

Sociobiology
Bees of genus Chalichadoma is a diverse group with numerous species mainly present in the Mediterranean region. Most of these species are using mud for building their nests, while some species are cavity nesting using available holes in the nesting area.

Cutaneous Melanoma Drives Metabolic Changes in the Aged Bone Marrow Immune Microenvironment

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, increasingly affects older adults. Our study reveals that melanoma induces changes in iron and lipid levels in the bone marrow, impacting immune cell populations and increasing susceptibility to ferroptosis.

Exploratory Analysis of ELP1 Expression in Whole Blood From Patients With Familial Dysautonomia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a hereditary neurodevelopmental disorder caused by aberrant splicing of the ELP1 gene, leading to a tissue‐specific reduction in ELP1 protein expression. Preclinical models indicate that increasing ELP1 levels can mitigate disease manifestations.

Discovery and Targeted Proteomic Studies Reveal Striatal Markers Validated for Huntington's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Clinical trials for Huntington's disease (HD) enrolling persons before clinical motor diagnosis (CMD) lack validated biomarkers. This study aimed to conduct an unbiased discovery analysis and a targeted examination of proteomic biomarkers scrutinized by clinical validation. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from PREDICT‐HD and

NEST, EGG, AND NESTING BIOLOGY OF THE SNOWY COTINGA (CARPODECTES NITIDUS)

The Wilson Bulletin, 2002
I describe the nest, egg, and nesting behavior of the Snowy Cotinga (Carpodectes nitidus) in La Selva Biological Station, Costa Rica. The nest was placed 7.5 m high on a fork formed by four branches of a leafless tree. The nest was a simple platform made of dry tendrils and lichens. It contained a single large egg, which took at least 27 days to hatch.

Bioecology and Domiciliation of the Alkali Bee, Hoplonomia westwoodi (Gribodo, 1894) (Hymenoptera: Halictidae: Nomiinae) from India

Sociobiology, 2022
We describe here nesting biology of Hoplonomia westwoodi, a common ground nesting solitary bee in India. A typical nest consisted of a straight main tunnel with the cells arranged horizontally at the end. Number of cells per nest ranged from 2 to 4 (x̄ =

Fluid Biomarkers of Disease Burden and Cognitive Dysfunction in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Identifying objective biomarkers for progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is crucial to improving diagnosis and establishing clinical trial and treatment endpoints. This study evaluated fluid biomarkers in PSP versus controls and their associations with regional 18F‐PI‐2620 tau‐PET, clinical, and cognitive outcomes.

Evaluation of a Novel Electric Health Record Sidecar Application to Display Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinical Outcomes During Clinic Visits: Results of a Stepped‐Wedge Cluster Randomized Pragmatic Trial

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We developed a novel electronic health record sidecar application to visualize key rheumatoid arthritis (RA) outcomes, including disease activity, physical function, and pain, via a patient‐facing graphical interface designed for use during outpatient visits (“RA PRO dashboard”).

A long-term study of green turtles on Lanyu Island, Taiwan, suggests resilience to global climate change

Endangered Species Research
Resilience is the ability of an ecosystem or species to maintain key functions and processes by resisting or adapting to changes when faced with stress. To survive stressful environmental conditions caused by climate change, populations must respond via ...
