An interdisciplinary review of the interplay of conflict, socio‐economic factors, and land cover and vegetation dynamics in Colombia

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Colombia's forests play a crucial role in preserving biodiversity and mitigating climate change, but they are currently facing severe degradation, particularly after the 2016 Peace Agreement. Our literature review highlights a growing research interest in this topic and demonstrates how interdisciplinary approaches combining diverse methods can enhance

RNA‐binding protein RBMS1: A new target for cancer diagnosis and treatment

Precision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
This schematic illustrates the diverse regulatory roles of RNA‐binding motif single‐stranded interacting protein 1 (RBMS1) across multiple human cancers. In breast cancer, RBMS1 stabilizes B4GALT1 mRNA to promote PD‐L1 glycosylation, modulating tumor immune escape and immunotherapy efficacy.

System as a Unifying Process: An Onto‐Epistemic Notion of System

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article proposes an onto‐epistemic notion of system as a relational process of unifying a multiplicity of actuals and abstractions into an actual unity, thereby encompassing concreteness and abstraction onto the same plane. This notion rejects the opposition between constructivism and realism within systems studies, the excessive focus on

Iowa Population Exposures to Metals and Metalloids in Well Water

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous Iowa studies suggest low levels and chronic arsenic exposures are associated with prostate cancer. The rural Iowa population heavily relies on private wells for drinking water resources and thus is vulnerable to contaminants such as heavy metals found in well water.

Fixed Pay for Output or Time? Implications for Work Speed and Quality

Journal of Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the influence of two fixed payment arrangements—time‐based and output‐based wages—on worker behavior and performance in a multidimensional task setting. We examine how these wages affect the time workers spend on individual units of a task and their work quality.

Training and validation of an automated algorithm to differentiate no and minimal diabetic retinopathy from more severe stages in wide‐field images

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness in the working‐age population. Screening is essential to identify and treat sight‐threatening stages prior to irreversible visual loss. This study aimed to train and validate an automated algorithm to identify no or minimal DR, potentially saving resources for specialist ...

Rapid generation of prion disease models using AAV‐delivered PrP variants in knockout mice

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
We developed a rapid AAV‐based system to generate prion disease models in weeks rather than months. Following systemic AAV9P31 delivery of modified PrP to knockout mice, we achieved brain‐wide expression and successful propagation of both classical (RML) and atypical (GSS‐A117V) prion strains.
