Estimation de l’affouillement en méandre : quelles formules dans quel contexte ? Application à la stabilisation des berges de rivières par le génie végétal

Sciences, Eaux & Territoires
Les phénomènes d’érosion sont essentiels au bon fonctionnement des cours d’eau. Cependant, lorsque les enjeux sont importants et non déplaçables, il peut être nécessaire de fixer les berges par des ouvrages de protection. Les techniques de génie végétal,

Conserving wildlife through demand reduction and supply alternatives: Two experiments in restaurants in Kinshasa

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract High aggregate levels of wildlife consumption in cities in Central Africa highlight the need for solutions that balance wildlife protection, local livelihoods and the relational values between people and nature. This study explores the impacts of demand‐ and supply‐side interventions on wild meat consumption through two randomized control ...

Local Eviction Moratoria and the Spread of COVID‐19

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT At different stages during the initial onset of the COVID‐19 pandemic, various US states and local municipalities enacted eviction moratoria. One of the main aims of these moratoria was to slow the spread of COVID‐19 infections. We deploy a semiparametric difference‐in‐differences approach with an event study specification to examine whether ...

Decoding Dual Regulatory Layers: Integrating Differential Expression and Alternative Splicing Dynamics in the Evolution of Laryngeal Echolocation Across Chiropteran Lineages

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We integrated short‐read and long‐read RNA‐seq data from cochlear tissues of echolocating and non‐echolocating bats to disentangle transcriptional and post‐transcriptional regulation. Echolocating bats showed neural‐function enrichment among differentially expressed genes, while alternatively spliced genes were linked to epigenetic regulation. Overlaps

Tales of Cyberspace and Artificial Intelligence: Diverging Stakeholderships?

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article traces the evolution of the Internet from the 1990s to the 2020s and compares it with the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly following the public launch of ChatGPT in late 2022. It identifies both parallels and divergencies between these two overlapping technological domains, focusing on the growing ...

Genome‐wide association and interaction analysis for proliferative retinopathy in adults with type 2 diabetes born during famine: The DOLCE study in Ukraine

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is one of the leading causes of blindness in working‐age adults. We have previously shown that the risk of PDR is significantly elevated in individuals with intrauterine exposure to famine. However, the genetic mechanisms mediating this association remain unknown.

Conseils pratiques pour l’utilisation du bouturage pour le génie végétal en berges de cours d’eau

Sciences, Eaux & Territoires
Connue comme une méthode de revégétalisation ancestrale, le bouturage s'impose encore aujourd’hui comme la technique la plus simple et économique pour le contrôle de l’érosion en rivière. Cet article vise à synthétiser les potentialités de l'utilisation

Co‐operatives and public policy: A scoping review

Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract We sketch a first‐ever map of the scholarly literature on co‐operatives and public policy from a selection of English‐language studies published since 2000 using a scoping review methodology. We find that while co‐operatives are often framed as solutions to societal problems, few scholars draw on formal public policy theories.

Novel Variants in PUS7 Associated With Intellectual Disability and Growth Retardation: Expanding the Clinical Spectrum in 13 Patients

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Novel variants in PUS7 associated with intellectual disability and growth retardation: expanding the clinical spectrum in 13 patients. ABSTRACT Pseudouridylation is a frequent post‐transcriptional modification resulting in uridine isomerization in 5‐ribosyluracil, also called pseudouridine. This mechanism leads to RNA stability with an increase in base‐
