The “Not Better Explained” (NBE) criterion plays a key role in preventing diagnostic misclassification by structuring causal reasoning in sleep medicine. This systematic content analysis compares the use, wording, and excluded conditions of NBE criteria across the ICSD‐3‐TR and DSM‐5‐TR for ten major sleep disorders.

Glacial cycles promote greater dispersal, which can help explain larger clutch sizes, in north temperate birds [PDF]
Earth’s glacial history and patterns in the life history traits of the planet’s avifauna suggest the following interpretations of how recent geological history has affected these key characteristics of the biota: 1) Increased colonizing ...

CD4+ T Cells Predict Relapse in Pemphigus Vulgaris Treated With Rituximab: A Retrospective Study
ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluated the CD4+ T‐cell role in mediating post‐Rituximab Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) relapse, comparing CD4+ count and CD4+/CD20+ ratio between patients who achieved remission and those who relapsed. Methods The clinical course of 27 PV patients treated with Rituximab was evaluated after a 32‐month median follow‐up. CD4+ and

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling
Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

An eye on long‐duration spaceflight: Controversies, countermeasures and challenges
Abstract Space flight‐associated neuroocular syndrome (SANS) is a consequence of long‐duration space flight and is detected in two‐thirds of astronauts. In‐flight, this can cause a change in the refraction of the eyes, requiring graded hypermetropic ‘superfocus adjustable’ glasses, optic nerve head oedema and choroidal folds.

Psychological stress catalyses free radical–mediated activation of coagulation in humans
Abstract figure legend This study provides the first in vivo evidence that acute psychological stress triggers systemic free radical formation and prothrombotic remodelling of blood clot microstructure. By inducing stress in healthy participants, we observed a significant increase in oxidative stress (A•−), a shortening of the intrinsic pathway of ...

Evolutionary processes and its environmental correlates in the cranial morphology of western chipmunks (Tamias). [PDF]
The importance of the environment in shaping phenotypic evolution lies at the core of evolutionary biology. Chipmunks of the genus Tamias (subgenus Neotamias) are part of a very recent radiation, occupying a wide range of environments with marked niche ...

The spread of non‐native species
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Some Computational Aspects of Essential Properties of Evolution and Life [PDF]
While evolution has inspired algorithmic methods of heuristic optimisation, little has been done in the way of using concepts of computation to advance our understanding of salient aspects of biological evolution.
