Cochlear Implant Complications and Outcomes: National Trends of the MAUDE Database From 2016 to 2024
Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.Abstract Objective As cochlear implant (CI) use expands, complications have become a growing concern. While prior studies analyzed CI failures, few have comprehensively assessed national complication temporal patterns and clinical outcomes. This study evaluates patient and device complication patterns and outcomes from 2016 to 2024.

Generalized Additive Models for Location Scale and Shape (GAMLSS) in R
Journal of Statistical Software, 2007 GAMLSS is a general framework for fitting regression type models where the distribution of the response variable does not have to belong to the exponential family and includes highly skew and kurtotic continuous and discrete distribution.

Inequalities in intraspecific plant–lemur interactions drive seed dispersal patterns
Oikos, EarlyView.Biotic interactions occur between individuals and accumulate to shape species‐level interaction structure across a community. Skewed interaction structures, where a few individuals are highly connected and most have few interactions, are increasingly identified at the individual‐level.

Biodiversity Data Journal, 2013 Echinorhynchus truttae and the E. bothniensis species complex are common parasites of salmoniform and other fishes in northern Europe. E. bothniensis and its sibling species E. 'bothniensis' are thought to be closely related to the Nearctic E. leidyi Van

Age ratio in groups of a social ungulate affects epizoochorous dispersal and diaspore exchanges
Oikos, EarlyView.Animal‐mediated seed dispersal is a key process in plant population dynamics, species distribution and ecosystem functioning. As long‐distance dispersal agents, ungulates help to maintain native plant populations facing abiotic changes in their habitat and habitat fragmentation or habitat loss.

MortalitySmooth: An R Package for Smoothing Poisson Counts with P-Splines
Journal of Statistical Software, 2012 The MortalitySmooth package provides a framework for smoothing count data in both one- and two-dimensional settings. Although general in its purposes, the package is specifically tailored to demographers, actuaries, epidemiologists, and geneticists who ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Forest restoration success depends crucially on the reinitiation of ecological processes such as seed arrival that drive natural regeneration. We know little about whether, by increasing and diversifying local seed sources to alleviate seed limitation, and attracting animal frugivores to alleviate dispersal limitation, restoration could shift seed ...

Hierarchical Generalized Linear Models: The R Package HGLMMM
Journal of Statistical Software, 2011 The R package HGLMMM has been developed to fit generalized linear models with random effects using the h-likelihood approach. The response variable is allowed to follow a binomial, Poisson, Gaussian or gamma distribution.

Oikos, EarlyView.Fruit colour has long fascinated scientists and is widely considered an evolutionary adaptation to attract both avian and mammalian frugivores. While fleshy fruits play a key role in plant–animal interactions by promoting seed dispersal, the functional significance of colour variation, particularly multicoloured displays during ripening, remains poorly
