Maximal use of 0.05% topical isotretinoin in patients with congenital ichthyosis results in low systemic exposure

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Congenital ichthyoses (CI) are rare, inherited skin disorders characterized by hyperkeratosis, scaling and fissuring that significantly impair patients' quality of life. Treatment options are limited, with systemic retinoids reserved for severe cases owing to their adverse effect profile.

Numerical Simulation of the Semi-Rigid Behaviour of Integrally Attached Timber Folded Surface Structures

Buildings, 2019
Timber folded surface structures assembled using semi-rigid multiple tab and slot joints (MTSJ) have been shown to form feasible structural systems with high load bearing potential. However, for their further development and use on large building scales,

Injuries in deep time: interpreting competitive behaviours in extinct reptiles via palaeopathology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For over a century, palaeopathology has been used as a tool for understanding evolution, disease in past communities and populations, and to interpret behaviour of extinct taxa. Physical traumas in particular have frequently been the justification for interpretations about aggressive and even competitive behaviours in extinct taxa.

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The Due diligence system in the EU’s Timber Regulation: non-tariff trade barrier or leverage effect? [PDF]

, 2016
This paper presents a novel spatial equilibrium model to analyse the leverage impact of the EU’s Timber Regulation on sustainable timber production. This leverage effect is an argument in favour of FLEGT but it has never been investigated thoroughly, or ...

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Identification of the Auxin Response Factor gene family in kernel consumption apricot and association analysis of related genes regulating fruit size in distant hybridization

BMC Plant Biology
Background Distant hybridization is pivotal for fruit tree germplasm enhancement. Although successful hybridization has been achieved between kernel consumption apricot and almond, the hybrid progeny exhibits a consistent fruit size diminution compared ...

Moderate Drought Stress Induces Increased Foliar Dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) Concentration and Isoprene Emission in Two Contrasting Ecotypes of Arundo donax

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The function of dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) in plants is unclear. It has been proposed as an antioxidant, osmolyte and overflow for excess energy under stress conditions.
