Presenting the scientific discourse of biodiversity loss through drivers, solutions, and responsibilities

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity loss is considered a major global issue, but at the same time, scientists interpret it differently, identifying varied drivers, solutions, and responsibilities in their published works. These interpretations shape the scientific narratives these scientists use to discuss biodiversity loss, which, in turn, affects policy through ...

Glycated albumin: An old yet new biomarker in people with diabetes and the potential for novel applications

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycated albumin (GA), the product of nonenzymatic glycation of serum albumin, reflects the mean glucose levels over the preceding approximately 2 weeks, bridging the gap between daily self‐monitoring of blood glucose and the roughly 3‐month window covered by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measurement.

Food selectivity and grazing responses of the Lawnmower Blenny (Salarias fasciatus) to nutrient enrichment and ammonia exposure

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Nutrient enrichment can alter the nutritional quality of the epilithic algal matrix (EAM) and modify the feeding environment of herbivorous and detritivorous reef fishes. However, wastewater inputs can also elevate ammonia concentrations, which may disrupt fish physiological processes, yet the effects of ammonia exposure on grazing activity ...

Association Among Eating Speed, Dietary Diversity, and Fat‐Free Mass Index in Adults

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study examined the associations among body composition indices, eating speed, and dietary diversity. Dietary diversity was positively associated with muscle mass in men and negatively associated with body fat mass index in women, while fast eating was significantly associated with fat‐free mass index.

Finding the sweet spot: An exploration of environmental factors to optimize Ulva carbohydrate content and composition

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Green macroalgae from the Ulva genus are rich in polysaccharides of interest, including ulvan, starch, and cellulose. However, their content and structure are impacted by environmental factors, which poses challenges for industrial applications, especially in the context of climate change.

Macroalgae respond to consumer‐mediated nutrient cycling in a temperate ecosystem

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Primary production in coastal upwelling regions has often been presumed to be supported primarily by allochthonous nutrients, but inconsistent nutrient delivery and the metabolic cost of nitrate assimilation can leave producers nitrogen limited during the growing season. As a potential supplement for insufficient allochthonous supply, nutrient
