Land use gradients drive spatial variation in Lassa fever host communities in the Eastern Province of Sierra Leone

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 2, Page 296-312, February 2026.
As West Africa urbanises, the risk of Lassa fever may paradoxically decrease. We found the invasive house mouse, a dominant urban species, outcompetes and displaces the primary Lassa virus host. Considering these species interactions is critical for accurately predicting future zoonotic disease patterns.

The natural history and ecology of melanism in red wolf and coyote populations of the southeastern United States – evidence for Gloger’s rule

BMC Zoology, 2022
Background Gloger’s rule postulates that animals should be darker colored in warm and humid regions where dense vegetation and dark environments are common. Although rare in Canis populations, melanism in wolves is more common in North America than other

Statement from the frontal fibrosing alopecia international expert alliance: SOFFIA 2024

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 210-223, February 2026.
Optimal treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) remains contentious. An international expert panel agreed that highly/ultra‐potent topical steroids were the preferred first‐line topical therapy. Preferred systemic therapies were 5‐alpha reductase inhibitors, followed by hydroxychloroquine.
