The traits of “trait ecologists”: An analysis of the use of trait and functional trait terminology [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Trait and functional trait approaches have revolutionized ecology improving our understanding of community assembly, species coexistence, and biodiversity loss. Focusing on traits promotes comparability across spatial and organizational scales, but terms

Detecting natural selection in trait-trait coevolution [PDF]
BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2021 ABSTRACTNo phenotypic trait evolves independently of all other traits, but the cause of trait-trait coevolution is poorly understood. While the coevolution could arise simply from pleiotropic mutations that simultaneously affect the traits concerned, it could also result from multivariate natural selection favoring certain trait relationships.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1962-1973, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objectives Early‐ and late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD and LOAD) share the same neuropathological traits but show distinct cognitive features. We aimed to explore baseline and longitudinal outcomes of global and domain‐specific cognitive function in a well characterized cohort of patients with a biomarker‐based diagnosis.

The anterior nucleus of the thalamus plays a role in the epileptic network
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 2010-2024, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objectives We investigated both the metabolic differences and interictal/ictal discharges of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT) in patients with epilepsy to clarify the relationship between the ANT and the epileptic network. Methods Nineteen patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy who underwent stereoelectroencephalography were studied ...

The Effects of Food on Cannabidiol Bioaccessibility
Molecules, 2021 Cannabidiol (CBD) is a hydrophobic non-psychoactive compound with therapeutic characteristics. Animal and human studies have shown its poor oral bioavailability in vivo, and the impact of consuming lipid-soluble CBD with and without food on gut ...

Quantitative Human Paleogenetics: what can ancient DNA tell us about complex trait evolution? [PDF]
, 2021 Genetic association data from national biobanks and large-scale association studies have provided new prospects for understanding the genetic evolution of complex traits and diseases in humans. In turn, genomes from ancient human archaeological remains are now easier than ever to obtain, and provide a direct window into changes in frequencies of trait ...

Multiscale examination of cytoarchitectonic similarity and human brain connectivity [PDF]
Network Neuroscience, 2018 The human brain comprises an efficient communication network, with its macroscale connectome organization argued to be directly associated with the underlying microscale organization of the cortex.

Debugging Trait Errors as Logic Programs [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Rust uses traits to define units of shared behavior. Trait constraints build up an implicit set of first-order hereditary Harrop clauses which is executed by a powerful logic programming engine in the trait system. But that power comes at a cost: the number of traits in Rust libraries is increasing, which puts a growing burden on the trait system to ...

Stateful traits and their formalization [PDF]
Computer Languages, Systems & Structures, 2008 Traits offer a fine-grained mechanism to compose classes from reusable components while avoiding problems of fragility brought by multiple inheritance and mixins. Traits as originally proposed are stateless, that is, they contain only methods, but no instance variables.
