Cesarean section trends from 1992 to 2016 in Estonia and Finland: A registry-based study. [PDF]
Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand, 2023 Cesarean section (CS) trends were analyzed in Estonia and Finland from 1992 to 2016. Finland was chosen as a comparator country during the transition period after independence from the former Soviet Union. Today, Finland and Estonia have comparable perinatal outcomes.

Human Fragmentation Effects Are Genetically Detectable After 6 Years in an Island-Endemic Plant. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe provide direct evidence that anthropogenic infrastructures such as reservoirs and expressways have been capable of increasing genetic differentiation and, thus, modifying the phylogeographical pattern of Primulina heterotricha in just a six‐year period (two generations of the plant). ABSTRACT Anthropogenic disturbances have long been acknowledged to

Vaping causes an acute BMI-dependent change in pulmonary blood flow. [PDF]
Physiol RepThe effect of vaping on the lungs is not yet well understood; previous studies have shown mixed results. We applied functional MRI methods to measure regional ventilation and perfusion in the lungs before and after vaping. Results showed a strong correlation between BMI and the change in perfusion after vaping. Measurements of airways resistance showed

Longitudinal patterns of brain aging and neurodegeneration among older adults with dual decline in memory and gait. [PDF]
Alzheimers DementAbstract INTRODUCTION Dual cognitive and mobility decline is more strongly associated with dementia risk than cognitive decline only. It remains unknown whether this syndrome is associated with brain atrophy patterns, white matter (WM) damage, or pathology. METHODS In the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging participants with and without dual decline,

Interleukin-18 Gene Polymorphisms and Rheumatoid Arthritis Susceptibility: An Umbrella Review of Meta-Analyses. [PDF]
J Immunol ResThis study systematically analyzes the association between interleukin‐18 (IL‐18) gene polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility. The electronic databases Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid Excerpta Medica Database, and Cochrane Library were searched to identify meta‐analyses that included case–control studies reporting IL‐18 gene polymorphisms and RA

A Water Stable U(IV) Complex Based on a Macrocyclic Ligand Displaying NIR Emission. [PDF]
ChemistryA water‐stable U(IV) complex is obtained by coordination of U(IV) with a nonadentate macrocyclic ligand based on a triazacyclononane platform. The U(IV) cation is fully protected from coordination of water molecules, and upon excitation into the UV‐Visible region, the complex displays an unprecedented NIR emission from U(IV). Abstract Complexation of U(

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 128, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Precipitation of solar energetic particles (SEPs) into planetary atmospheres causes changes in atmospheric chemical composition through ionization, dissociation, and excitation of atmospheric molecules. In contrast to the terrestrial atmosphere, where depletion of ozone in the polar mesosphere has been studied by observations and models for ...

A Guideline Value for Dioxin‐Like Compounds in Marine Sediments
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 257-271, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Sediments to be dredged as part of the installation of a harbor crossing in Sydney, Australia, contained measurable concentrations of dioxin‐like compounds. To assess the suitability of these sediments for ocean disposal, a defensible sediment quality guideline value (SQGV) for dioxin‐like compounds, expressed as pg toxic equivalent (TEQ)fish ...

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 1467-1492, December 2022., 2022 Abstract The Kongsberg and Bamble lithotectonic domains of SE‐Norway are known as classical Precambrian high‐grade metamorphic terrains. The area has undergone extensive metasomatism with formation of albitites and scapolite‐rich rocks and numbers of previously economically important deposits including the Kongsberg Silver and the Modum Cobalt mines ...
