Selection of native Atlantic Forest species for urban greening under air pollution stress

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract Introduction The Air Pollution Tolerance Index (APTI) is widely used to identify pollution‐tolerant species for afforestation; however, it was not designed to account for traits such as pollutant accumulation or biomass storage, which are also relevant for evaluating environmental resilience.

Topical Donepezil for Cholinergic Modulation in Chronic Wound Repair

Wound Repair and Regeneration, Volume 34, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Chronic wounds result from combined defects in vascular perfusion, inflammatory resolution, and epithelial repair. The skin's non‐neuronal cholinergic system (NNCS), formed by keratinocytes, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and immune cells that synthesise and respond to acetylcholine (ACh), helps coordinate these processes through muscarinic ...

Association Between a Body Shape Index and Epilepsy Among US Adults: Potential Indirect Pathway Through Depressive Symptoms

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Epilepsy is a common and disabling brain disorder. Whether a body shape index (ABSI) is associated with epilepsy, and whether depressive symptoms may partly account for this association, remain unclear. Methods We analyzed 13,066 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013–2018.

The Extra Load Index as a method for comparing the relative economy of load carriage systems. [PDF]

, 2010
The Extra Load Index (ELI) has been proposed as a suitable method of assessing the relative economy of load carriage systems. The purpose of this study was to determine, based on empirical evidence, that the ELI can accommodate variations in both body ...
