Home sweet harm: Confinement and tranquilidad in post‐asylum Peru

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how Peru's Community Mental Health (CMH) model contributes to the exclusion and home confinement of mentally ill individuals. Based on the experience of a woman diagnosed with schizophrenia and her mother, I show how CMH's emphasis on community‐based care often fails in practice, as neighbors respond to people with mental

Comprehensive Analysis for the Evaluation of Torrential Floods and Slope Stability of River Channels: La China River Area (Colombia)

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Colombia and other tropical regions face a very high threat from torrential floods, which have resulted in over 25,000 deaths in a single event. Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive assessment methodology to zone and determine the magnitude of these disasters; therefore, this research aims to help fill this gap.

Water and Gas Exchange Responses of Five Related Blueberry Species (Ericaceae spp.) to the Dry Season in the High‐Andean Forest of the Colombian Eastern Cordillera

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vaccinium, Cavendishia, and Macleania are typical genera of blueberries from the Ericaceae belt, a narrow ecosystem that connects the high Andean forest and páramo, where fragmentation makes the species more vulnerable to climate change. To answer the question of whether five related blueberry species could physiologically behave similarly in ...

Instrumental Reminiscence and Coping Strategies in Older Adults Exposed to Armed Conflict in Colombia

Stress and Health, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Older adults exposed to prolonged sociopolitical violence often experience chronic stress that may undermine adaptive coping processes. Instrumental reminiscence, which focuses on recalling past experiences of successfully managing adversity, has been proposed as a strategy potentially associated with greater coping flexibility in later life ...

Local Adaptation to Current but Not Future Climate in Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests: Population Genomic Evidence in a Neotropical Legume Tree

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Neotropical seasonally dry biomes are amongst the world's most threatened ecosystems and are predicted to lose more biodiversity with climate change. The capacity of natural populations to respond to these changes depends on their genetic variation, but is poorly understood in most Neotropical seasonally dry forest species.

Nocturnal Sleep Breathing Patterns in Healthy Adolescents Residing at Very High Altitudes in Bolivia

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Data on sleep and respiratory patterns among adolescents residing at very high altitude (> 3500 m) remain scarce, and altitude‐related physiological differences may influence these parameters. Studying adolescents at different very high altitudes is crucial, as subtle environmental variations could affect sleep‐related oxygenation and ...

Presencia del Grisón Galictis vittata (Carnivora: Mustelidae) en el Valle de Aburrá, norte de los Andes colombianos

Mammalogy Notes, 2022
El Grisón es uno de los mesocarnívoros más crípticos y poco estudiados a lo largo de su distribución. En Colombia, su presencia está limitada a registros anecdóticos y sin evidencias en ecosistemas circundantes a las ciudades. Aquí reportamos los primeros dos registros de la especie en hábitats con una alta influencia antrópica al norte y occidente del

Fossil freshwater fishes from the Pliocene of northern Colombia and the palaeogeography of northern South America

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Freshwater fishes from the northwestern Colombian Andes are reported from the Pliocene Sincelejo and Ware formations. A total of 10 taxa have been identified, involving two orders, five families and nine genera. Characters from dental morphology, fin spines and cranial bones are provided as taxonomic tools for the study of fossil fishes.
