Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Soil drought imposes moderate, temporary costs on a strictly fossorial amphisbaenian reptile. However, these animals seem to cope with, at least, moderately short droughts thanks to their peculiar adaptations to living in an underground environment. ABSTRACT The physiological traits of animals can be strongly influenced by climatic fluctuations, and ...

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In rural Thailand, unclear and unregulated property rights of state forestlands have led, for decades, to conflicting land claims between state agencies and villagers. To solve this problem, on the one hand, grassroots activists proposed the communal land title bill so that local people could obtain formal recognition of their land rights and ...

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Ensifentrine (formerly called RPL 554) is a novel, first in class, inhaled bifunctional dual PDE3/4 inhibitor for the treatment of chronic respiratory diseases. Ensifentrine exhibits both bronchodilation via PDE3 inhibition and anti‐inflammatory activity via PDE4 inhibition.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Created in BioRender: Scientific Figure and Illustration Software. Background and Purpose In advanced cancer, associations among changes in body composition, cardiac wasting and prior cardiotoxic anticancer therapy have not been investigated. Experimental Approach Using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), body composition was measured in 206 ...

Progressive Convex Hull Simplification
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Convex hulls are useful as tight bounding proxies for a variety of tasks including collision detection, ray intersection, and distance computation. Unfortunately, the complexity of polyhedral convex hulls grows linearly with their input. We consider the problem of conservatively simplifying a convex hull to a specified number of half‐spaces ...

Naturally coloured poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate)
Coloration Technology, EarlyView.Abstract This study reports an innovative approach for producing intrinsically coloured poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] films by incorporating natural dyes—turmeric, paprika, annatto, beetroot and hibiscus—directly into the fermentation medium of Ralstonia solanacearum RS.

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.The lichen‐derived metabolite methyl 4‐O‐demethylbarbatate (Me‐4‐O‐DBA) suppresses glioma stemness, motility, and metabolic plasticity through inhibition of HIF‐1α signaling and synergistically enhances temozolomide activity, highlighting a potential strategy to target stemness‐driven therapeutic resistance in glioma.

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Aims We evaluated the cost‐effectiveness of implementing a novel funding model to incentivise earlier access of patients with diabetes‐related foot disease (DFD) to diabetic foot services (DFS). Methods In this multi‐centre pre‐post study, we compared the cost, quality‐adjusted life year (QALY) and clinical outcomes of patients with diabetes ...

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The microbial degradation of synthetic polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is mediated by diverse α/β‐hydrolases, many of which remain poorly characterized. In this study, we investigated the α/β‐hydrolase SM0281 from Sinorhizobium meliloti and found that it exhibits robust carboxylesterase and polyesterase activities toward PET, PCL ...

A global overview of pigeon–fruit interactions
Ibis, EarlyView.Pigeons are widespread worldwide. These relatively large‐bodied birds can significantly influence ecosystem structure and function through their feeding habits, especially on islands where large mammals and a few avian taxa are scarce or absent. However, their dietary guilds as frugivores and granivores, and their ecological roles as seed dispersers ...
