AI Companions and Loneliness: Conceptualizing and Operationalizing Synthetic Mindfulness and Exploring Its Role in Alleviating Loneliness

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rise of AI companions has sparked interest in their potential to alleviate the growing social problem of loneliness, yet evidence of their effectiveness remains unsettled. Drawing on social surrogacy theory with a theories‐in‐use approach, this research introduces synthetic mindfulness, defined as consumers' judgment of an AI companion's ...

Microbiological safety in the reuse of materials in home enteral nutrition: A quantitative in vitro experimental study

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In home enteral nutrition (HEN), the reuse of packaging and administration materials beyond the recommended period, combined with inadequate hygiene practice, increase the risk of microbiological contamination. This study assessed the risk through a simulation that reproduced real‐world usage conditions and hygiene practices ...

Coverage‐based rarefaction fails to quantify relative species richness

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Coverage‐based rarefaction (CBR) is a high‐profile tool for assessing biodiversity that provides relative species richness estimates by leveraging the Good‐Turing index u to interpolate. In contrast to alternatives such as the Shannon and Simpson indices, CBR's main appeal is providing values in units of species. CBR is tested against a series of other

Recycling of Thermoplastic Unidirectional Tapes: An Image‐Analysis Method for Measuring Residual Glass‐Fiber Length in Convoluted Fiber Clusters

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Development of a rapid, low‐cost method for measuring residual glass fibre length: samples are collected by tweezers, prepared via submersion, imaged with a flatbed scanner as a cost‐effective alternative to microscopy, and analyzed for fibre length independently of image acquisition.

Plants back: Re‐envisioning botanical garden collections management for indigenous crops

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Botanical gardens and other ex situ collections play a key role in preventing plant extinctions, yet the needs of Indigenous crop cultivars are not being met by conventional botanical collections management practices. Inspired by Indigenous land care restoration movements centering plant–human–society relationships, we propose a path toward reciprocal ...

Accidental plant poisonings in France: Lessons from a decade of national toxicovigilance

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Accidental plant poisonings reveal how modern societies are losing everyday botanical knowledge once central to food and health safety. By analyzing a decade of French toxicovigilance data, this study shows that most severe cases arise from plant misidentification or misguided self‐medication.

Forensic Hydraulic Analysis of Floodplain Connectivity Driven by Historical Beaver Dams in Colorado Headwater Streams

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...

Cannabis Agritourism and Local Pathways Toward Sustainable Development Goals in Northern California

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent acceleration in global cannabis legalization offers a new context for examining the multiscale links between agritourism, sustainability, and international policy frameworks. In this study, Responsible Tourism is used to conceptualize cannabis agritourism in Northern California's Emerald Triangle as a strategy that may advance targets ...
