Living in the Pyrocene: Assemblage‐Wide Terrestrial Vertebrate Responses to Mega‐Fires in the Pantanal Wetlands

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
More than 60% of Serra do Amolar within the Pantanal Wetlands, Brazil, was burned in 2020. Nine vertebrate species showed a dependency on forest areas, which are more vulnerable to fires in this region, despite the fire not having shown a direct effect on the occupation.

The Role of Precision Medicine in Neuroblastoma: Targeted Therapies and Personalized Approaches—A Narrative Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor and contributes the most to pediatric oncology deaths worldwide. Its clinical manifestations are heterogeneous, including relapses, and the prognosis remains poor, especially for high‐risk patients.

Prediction of Overall Survival in Patients With Oesophageal Cancer Using AI‐Based 3D CT Body Composition Analysis

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Oesophageal cancer remains the sixth most lethal malignancy, with 5‐year survival rates around 22%. CT‐derived 2D body composition analysis has emerged as a promising prognostic tool, but conventional, often manually created single‐slice L3 measurements are unsuited for future clinical implementation. We evaluated fully automated AI‐

Distribution and frequency of Vkorc1 polymorphisms in house mice and Norway rats in the northeastern United States

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 7700-7710, August 2026.
This study assesses the distribution and frequency of Vkorc1 polymorphisms in house mice and Norway rats in northeastern USA. House mice showed higher frequency of Vkorc1 mutations than Norway rats. The A32V and Y139F mutations are first reported in mice, and the L128V is newly reported in Norway rats.

Are we there yet? Reliable occupancy modeling from AI‐labeled trail camera data

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Even low false‐positive rates in AI‐labeled camera‐trap data can bias occupancy estimates, particularly for rare species. Our results show that false positive informed occupancy models can substantially improve inference, underscoring the need to evaluate AI classifiers according to the assumptions of downstream ecological analyses.

Combining Disparate Camera‐Trap Surveys: Impacts of Spatial Bias and Design Variation on Large‐Scale Ecological Inference

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Combining camera trap data from multiple surveys has the potential to address large‐scale ecological and conservation questions. But individual surveys can differ substantially in study design and, at the large scale, these surveys typically do not constitute a spatially representative sample.

Hierarchical Habitat Selection by Coyotes: Scale‐Dependent Responses to Land Cover, Prey and Harvest

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Across much of the globe, landscape modification and the reduction of large carnivores have facilitated the expansion and growth of mesocarnivore populations. An understanding of the factors shaping the distribution and activity of mesocarnivores in highly modified systems lacking large carnivores can help ecologists predict the potential ...
