“I Was Just Like a Sponge, Absorbing All the Wrong Information”: Examining the Role of Social Media in Athletes' Eating Disorder and Recovery Experiences

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Within sport environments, athletes are exposed to norms that circulate narrow meanings about the body and food, contributing to the high prevalence of eating disorders (EDs). While social media can support ED recovery, it can also further constrain food‐ and body‐related messages for athletes.

Tick‐Tock, the Time Has Come: Leveraging TikTok to Understand, Prevent, and Treat Eating Disorders

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective TikTok—a highly engaging social media platform with a powerful algorithm that displays short videos—has become massively popular in recent years. As research highlights the concerning relationship between image‐based content on social media and disordered eating symptoms, TikTok may serve as an optimal platform to understand eating ...

Biogeography of intertidal invertebrates is influenced by latitude along the west coast of Australia

Ecography, EarlyView.
Along the west coast of Australia, intertidal rock platforms support high invertebrate diversities that provide vital ecosystem services, yet patterns in diversity are not well understood. Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage ...

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Assessment of Maladaptive Exercise History Among Individuals With Eating Disorders: Validation of a Brief, Self‐Report Measure

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Maladaptive exercise is a common symptom of eating disorders (EDs). While several measures exist to assess current maladaptive exercise, there are no validated self‐report tools to assess maladaptive exercise history—an important symptom domain among individuals with lifetime EDs.

Exercise‐specific plasma proteomic signatures in racehorses: Candidates for training adaptation and peak load monitoring

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.
