Associations between mycorrhizal dominance and woody species diversity shift with stand development and climate across subtropical and tropical forests in Taiwan

Ecography, EarlyView.
Mycorrhizal symbioses influence woody species diversity, but whether this association shifts with forest stand development remains underexplored. Using forest inventory data across subtropical and tropical forests in Taiwan, we found that woody species diversity was lower in ectomycorrhizal (EM)‐dominated than in arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM)‐dominated ...

From patterns to predictions: a framework for the spatial epidemiology of wildlife diseases

Ecography, EarlyView.
Wildlife diseases pose a significant threat to biodiversity conservation, public health, and livestock. Spatial epidemiology provides a robust framework to understand disease dynamics and guide policy and management. However, the rapid proliferation of spatial methods has largely occurred in isolation across disciplines, leaving the field without a ...

Butterfly abundances but not patch occupancy buffered by vegetation heterogeneity during climatic extremes

Ecography, EarlyView.
As extreme climatic events are becoming more frequent, we need to understand what mechanisms could buffer populations to ensure their persistence. Fragmented populations may be especially vulnerable, as exemplified by species with metapopulation dynamics whose persistence is determined by a precarious balance between frequent local extinctions and ...

Thermal niche breadth shapes regional elevational range sizes of tropical‐like mountain stream insects: evidence for Janzen's tropical mountain passes hypothesis

Ecography, EarlyView.
The core of Janzen's tropical mountain passes hypothesis is that relatively stable annual temperature variation limits species' thermal tolerances breadth, which, in combination with steep elevational temperature gradients, constrains the elevational distributions of these species. In addition to thermal niche breadth, elevational ranges were shaped by

Brain‐wide magnetic resonance imaging analysis of neurobehavioral comorbidities in temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), patients often present with neurobehavioral comorbidities encompassing affective and cognitive difficulties. Whereas the latter have been related to atypical connectivity of mesiotemporal and frontotemporal circuits, the brain basis of affective symptoms remains incompletely understood.

An algorithm for seizure detection in rodents

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy animal research often relies on long‐term intracranial electroencephalographic (iEEG) recordings. Here, we describe an artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm for automatic detection of seizures. Methods The algorithm was trained on iEEG recordings of three mouse models of chronic epilepsy: (1) the pilocarpine model of ...

Transcriptional signatures of cortical morphometric variability in temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Widespread cognitive deficits in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) are associated with macroscale brain structural changes. However, the correlation between the changes in the cortical morphological similarity of the TLE and gene expression remains unclear.

Effect of volume for injection of the 15th to 16th thoracic interspinous space: An ex vivo study

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Impinging (overriding) spinous processes (ISPs) are commonly identified in horses with back pain. Diagnostic analgesia is widely used as the clinical reference standard for confirming association with clinical signs of back pain, but the specificity of dorsal spinous region diagnostic analgesia remains poorly understood.

Methodological guidelines for the characterization of polysaccharide helical structures

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Polysaccharide chain conformation is a critical determinant of their physicochemical and biological properties; however, reliable identification remains a significant challenge due to the inconsistent structural evidence yielded by conventional analytical techniques.
