Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Common ground: Efficient, consistent, observer‐independent bioacoustic call density estimation with adjudicated ground truth and capture–recapture detection functions

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Passive acoustic recording is a cost‐effective method for monitoring vocal animals. Within this field, there is an increasing focus on automated detection algorithms for counting calls and estimating call density (in space and time). For accurate interpretation of such results, it is important to understand and correct biases introduced by ...

Future projection of habitat suitability and potential distribution of main European cereal bugs using MaxEnt modelling

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Global climate change will modify the distribution areas of important cereal bugs by changing environmental conditions. Information on their dispersal possibilities can help to clarify their future economic importance and damage potential. In this study, we modelled the current potential and future distribution of four important pests by using the ...

Prophylactic interventions to prevent rebound pain after peripheral nerve block in adults: a systematic review and network meta‐analysis of randomised controlled trials

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Rebound pain after peripheral nerve block is recognised increasingly as a postoperative complication that may diminish the benefits of regional anaesthesia. We undertook a systematic review and network meta‐analysis to evaluate pharmacological strategies for its prevention.

IRT‐based response style models and related methodology: Review and commentary

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We provide a review and commentary on recent methodological research related to item response theory (IRT) modelling of response styles in psychological measurement. Our review describes the different categories of IRT models that have been proposed, their associated assumptions and extensions, and the varying purposes they can serve.
