Spatially explicit abundance estimation of a rare habitat specialist: implications for SECR study design [PDF]
Ecosphere, 2018 Estimating abundance is an essential component of monitoring and recovery of rare species, and spatially explicit capture–recapture (SECR) models provide the means for robust density estimation.

A New Paclitaxel Formulation Based on Secretome Isolated from Mesenchymal Stem Cells Shows a Significant Cytotoxic Effect on Osteosarcoma Cell Lines [PDF]
Pharmaceutics, 2023 Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) represents a rare cancer with an unfavorable prognosis that needs innovative treatment. The aim was to isolate a secretome from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that are treated with paclitaxel (PTX)-containing microvesicles as

Spatiotemporal evolution and influencing factors of the allocation of social care resources for the older adults in China [PDF]
International Journal for Equity in Health, 2023 Background The reasonable allocation of social care resources for the older adults is a key measure to actively respond to population aging. This study aims to evaluate the evolutionary trend, spatial differences and influencing factors of the social ...

Widespread atypical response regulator SecR governs bacterial growth on methylamines through the serine cycle [PDF]
Communications BiologyMicrobial utilization of methylamines (MAs) exerts profound effects on biogeochemical carbon cycles, yet the regulatory mechanisms enabling bacterial adaptation to fluctuating MAs availability remain elusive.

Spatially explicit capture-recapture models for relative density. [PDF]
EcologyAbstract Spatially explicit capture–recapture (SECR) methods are used widely to estimate animal population density and related parameters. Maximum likelihood has been applied to two flavors of the SECR model—a full model that includes absolute density as a spatially varying parameter, and a model conditional on the number of detected individuals that ...

Population Density and Spatial-Temporal Niche Use of Ship Rats and Italian Wall Lizards on a Small Adriatic Island. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe quantified population density and spatial–temporal niche use of ship rats (Rattus rattus) and Italian wall lizards (Podarcis siculus) on a small uninhabited Adriatic islet using spatially explicit capture–recapture, distance sampling, and camera trapping.

Catwalk: Leopards Persist at Moderate Densities While Exhibiting Temporal Segregation From Humans in Telangana's Boath Range. [PDF]
Ecol EvolTemporal overlap between male leopards and female leopards in Ajjar‐Wajjar Forest Block, Adilabad District, Telangana, India. ABSTRACT Large carnivores, such as leopards (Panthera pardus), are critical for the structure and function of ecosystems but are declining across much of their range.
