Amplified drought induced by climate change reduces seedling emergence and increases seedling mortality for two Mediterranean perennial herbs

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Seedling recruitment is a bottleneck for population dynamics and range shift. The vital rates linked to recruitment by seed are impacted by amplified drought induced by climate change. In the Mediterranean region, autumn and winter seedling emergence and

Association between walking gait biomechanical changes after anterior cruciate ligament injury or reconstruction and the development of osteoarthritis: A systematic review

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and reconstruction significantly increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Biomechanical alterations during walking are frequently suggested contributors to OA development. This systematic review aims to determine the association between walking gait biomechanical changes following ACL ...

Local trampling disturbance effects on alpine plant populations and communities: Negative implications for climate change vulnerability

Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Global change is modifying species communities from local to landscape scales, with alterations in the abiotic and biotic determinants of geographic range limits causing species range shifts along both latitudinal and elevational gradients.

Speciation with gene flow

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

Postglacial colonization and parallel evolution of metal tolerance in the polyploid Cerastium alpinum [PDF]

, 2005
The Fennoscandian flora is characterized by a high frequency of polyploids, probably because they were more successful than diploid plants in colonizing after the last Ice Age.

The Utility of Intranasal Corticosteroids in Association With Dupilumab for Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyposis: A Real‐Life Multicenter Study by a Tuscany Group

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a persistent inflammatory condition often associated with other type‐2 diseases. Dupilumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting IL‐4Rα, has revolutionized the treatment of severe CRSwNP.

Taxonomic and functional diversity of noctuoid moths in a Mediterranean coastal area: implications for dune conservation in a long‐term ecological research eLTER site

Insect Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the taxonomic and functional diversity of noctuoid moths in a protected coastal dune system in Central Italy, revealing strong ecological associations between moth assemblages and dune zonation. Differences in species composition and trait attributes, along with the presence of habitat‐exclusive species, highlight the role of ...
