Taxon‐dependent multisite species turnover in fragmented habitats: comparing zeta diversity across birds, butterflies, and cursorial hunting spiders

Ecography, EarlyView.
Habitat fragmentation alters species diversity and reshapes community composition. However, conventional pairwise approaches to compositional variation (i.e. beta diversity metrics) do not explicitly characterize how species sharing or turnover change with the number of habitat patches.

Genetics of Sedentariness

, 2017
The genetic investigation of sedentary behaviour is only recent and greatly lags behind that of other health behaviours. This section will review the available literature on the genetics of sedentary behaviour. First, the classical twin design will be outlined, and twin studies will be summarized that decompose the variance of sedentary behaviour into ...

Thermal baselines and climate‐space geometry mediate systematic terrestrial biodiversity responses to warming

Ecography, EarlyView.
Global warming is rapidly restructuring biological communities, yet terrestrial ecosystems often appear to lack the systematic climate‐driven signatures observed in marine realms. We hypothesise that this apparent idiosyncrasy arises from neglecting the geographic structure of climate.

Is self-reported time spent sedentary and in physical activity differentially biased by age, gender, body mass index, and low-back pain?

Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2018
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to determine the extent to which age, gender, body mass index (BMI) and low-back pain (LBP) influence bias in self-reported sedentary behavior and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) among blue-collar workers ...

Behavioural plasticity is associated with global population density and geographic range size in birds

Ecography, EarlyView.
What determines the vast differences in species' abundance and distribution is a central question in ecology. Behavioural plasticity, the capacity to adjust behaviour to local conditions, is hypothesised to help species thrive, yet its role in shaping large‐scale patterns of ecological prosperity remains unclear.

Lignocellulosic Triboelectric Materials for Energy Harvesting and Emerging Applications: A Review on Lignin‐Molecular Engineering toward Improved Performance

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Contrasting sustainable biomass with depleting petroleum resources, this review charts the evolutionary timeline of lignin‐based TENGs. We systematically evaluate their fundamental mechanisms, enhancement strategies, and applications in green self‐powered electronics.

Ratings of Perceived Exertion Misclassify Intensities for Sedentary Older Adults During Graded Cycling Test: Effect of Supramaximal High-Intensity Interval Training

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
The present study aims (1) to evaluate ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and corresponding intensities during a maximal graded cycling test and (2) to determine the effects of 6 weeks of supramaximal cycling exercise (SCE) intervention on RPE and ...

Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 879-887, April 2025.
Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...

Epidemiology of hospitalized heart failure in France based on national data over 10 years, 2012–2022

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1283-1294, April 2025.
Abstract Aims We aim to describe the incidence of HF hospitalization in France in the post‐pandemic era, the prevalence of HF cases and patients' characteristics, management and outcomes while focusing on sex, age and socio‐economic differences and to analyse time‐trends between 2012 and 2022.

Cardiovascular disease risk factors in habitual exercisers, lean sedentary men and abdominally obese sedentary men

, 2005
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the favourable cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor profile of habitual exercisers is attributable to exercise or leanness. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study of 113 nonsmoking men aged 30-45 y.
