Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Understanding the Meaning of a Good Death for People Living With Parkinson's Disease: Qualitative Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder globally. Despite growing attention to palliative care in Parkinson's disease, little is known about what constitutes a “good death” from the perspective of people living with Parkinson's disease (PLwPD).

Random Integrated Subdata Ensemble Method for Key Variable Selection in Rare Event Setting

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 1878-1889, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We propose a general variable selection procedure to identify key input variables by applying elastic net regression to representative subdata in place of the full sample to select variables. We combine the lists of selected variables from each subdata through ensemble techniques, using the frequency of selecting the variable across different ...

Back to School: An Updated Evaluation of the Effectiveness of a Long-Term Trap-Neuter-Return Program on a University’s Free-Roaming Cat Population

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
A growing body of evidence indicates that trap-neuter-return (TNR) is not only effective at reducing community cat numbers, but that such reductions are sustainable over extended periods. Recently, a series of peer-reviewed articles documenting long-term

Harmonising digitised herbarium data to enhance biodiversity knowledge: Major steps towards an updated checklist for the flora of Greenland

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1195-1209, July 2026.
Herbaria worldwide hold centuries of plant data that are key to understanding and protecting biodiversity; however, even with increased digital access, differences in plant naming systems make it difficult to compare records. We developed a semi‐automated workflow that standardises species names and organises herbaria records from multiple institutions

Digitizing collections to unlock the full potential of palynology: A case study with the Smithsonian palynology collection

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1116-1131, July 2026.
Large palynological collections have been built over decades and contain vital information. However, they are often difficult to access and use effectively. What is the point of having such collections if they are not fully utilizable? To solve this problem, we digitized the Smithsonian palynological collection using both light and confocal microscopy.

Assessing current curation, identification and digitisation practices in herbaria: Results from a global survey

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1175-1194, July 2026.
The value of herbarium specimens depends largely on the accuracy and accessibility of the data captured, which is dependent on curation practices. Previous studies have shown high levels of misidentification in collections, which become more problematic with increased access.

Exploring Costa Rica's fungal trends: Insights from digitized specimens

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1256-1274, July 2026.
Fungi are essential to tropical ecosystems but remain largely absent from conservation agendas. By analyzing over 78,000 fungal records from Costa Rica—a globally recognized biodiversity hotspot—this study reveals key patterns in fungal diversity, distribution, and seasonality.

Effects of Calcination Temperatures on Photocatalytic Activity of Ordered Titanate Nanoribbon/SnO2 Films Fabricated during an EPD Process

open access: yesInternational Journal of Photoenergy, 2012
Ordered titanate nanoribbon (TNR)/SnO2 films were fabricated by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) process using hydrothermally prepared titanate nanoribbon as a precursor. The formation mechanism of ordered TNR film on the fluorine-doped SnO2 coated (FTO)

PMX‐CovEval: A Framework Including a Simulated Pharmacokinetic Database for Covariate Model Building Methods Benchmarking

open access: yesCPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The development of new methods for covariate model building (CMB) in population pharmacokinetics (popPK) highlights the need for a standardized evaluation framework for method benchmarking. This data paper introduces PMX‐CovEval, a framework including a collection of datasets based on 127 distinct scenarios.
