Taste for pollen comes in different shapes: Consumption by tadpoles from three divergent ecomorphotypes

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 320, Issue 1, Page 42-52, May 2023., 2023
We studied pollen consumption and breakage of pollen grains by tadpoles of three different ecomorphotypes likely to influence ease of access to different feeding microhabitats. We found tadpoles adapted to feed on the water surface (where pollen is first available to aquatic food webs) to eat more pollen and break relatively more grains, which is ...

Seroreversion of IgG anti‐HEV in HIV cirrhotic patients: A long‐term multi‐sampling longitudinal study

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e1541-e1548, September 2022., 2022
Abstract The aim of our study was to evaluate HEV antibody kinetics in HIV/HCV‐coinfected patients with cirrhosis. A longitudinal retrospective study was designed. Patients were followed up every 6 months; anti‐HEV IgG and IgM antibodies levels and HEV‐RNA by qPCR were analysed. The prevalence and incidence of every HEV infection marker were calculated.

Hepatitis E virus in the endangered Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus)

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e2745-e2756, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen in Europe. In the Iberian Peninsula, wild boar (Sus scrofa) is considered the main wildlife reservoir of HEV. This wild ungulate shares habitat and resources with other potential HEV carriers in Iberian Mediterranean ecosystems, although information about the role of such sympatric ...

Development and validation of an instrument to assess Brazilians’ knowledge, perceptions, and behaviors toward salt and sodium

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 555-565, May 2022., 2022
Abstract This study aimed to develop and validate an instrument to assess Brazilian adults’ knowledge, perceptions, and behaviors (KPB) toward salt and sodium. Based on a PAHO/WHO questionnaire, a new instrument was developed and evaluated by 11 experts, generating item and scale‐level content validity indexes (I‐CVI and S‐CVI, respectively).

El entorno construido en los programas diseñados para promover la actividad física entre las niñas, niños y jóvenes latinos que viven en Estados Unidos y América Latina

open access: yesObesity Reviews, Volume 22, Issue S5, Octubre 2021., 2021
Resumen Prevenir la obesidad entre los jóvenes latinos que viven en Estados Unidos y en países latinoamericanos requiere reconocer la especificidad de los contextos y las interacciones entre actividad física (AF) y entorno construido (EC). El objetivo de este artículo es avanzar en la agenda de investigación sobre el EC y la AF con el fin de prevenir ...

Capacidad de investigación en obesidad infantil en Latinoamérica y en las poblaciones latinas de Estados Unidos: estado de la investigación, problemas, oportunidades y líneas de trabajo para el futuro

open access: yesObesity Reviews, Volume 22, Issue S5, Octubre 2021., 2021
Resumen La obesidad infantil es un problema grave en Latinoamérica y entre la población latina de EE. UU. Para ser eficaces, las políticas de salud pública tienen que estar guiadas por evidencias contextuales pertinentes, lo cual exige una capacidad de investigación sostenida a través del tiempo.

Chrysoperla externa (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) as a Potential Biological Control Agent of Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 4, Page 335-342, April 2026.
First and third instar Chrysoperla externa showed efficient predatory capacity at low R. indica density, but second instar C. externa exhibits a density‐dependent predatory ability. The lacewing C. externa shows promise as a biocontrol agent for R. indica in coconut because it consumed 8362 R. indica females across all its larval instars.

Scaling the effects of size and temperature on animal consumption rates from individuals to populations in a subtropical reef fish

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3385-3395, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Measuring how temperature and body size drive individual consumption rates is fundamental to predict how climate change might shape population‐level consumption pressure. Yet, such measurements remain rare.

When Raptors Are Away, Opossums Will Play: Woolly Opossums as Carrion Feeders in Harpy Eagle Nests

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.
Scavenging by New World marsupials is rarely documented. We recorded woolly opossums (Caluromys lanatus) scavenging prey remains from a Harpy eagle’s nest in central Brazil. The low overlap in activity periods between the two species may facilitate the behavior observed here.
