The Land Chief’s embers: ethnobotany of Batéké fire regimes, savanna vegetation and resource use in Gabon [PDF]
, 2010 Anthropogenic fire regimes and society are linked: social change modifies fire application which then impacts ecosystems. In the past 40 years, savanna burning has changed markedly around the world as policies, laws, and cultures change.

In Respect of People Living in a Permanent Vegetative State - and Allowing Them to Die
, 2005 This article considers the controversy surrounding the removal of Terri Schiavo's feeding tube and argues for a new approach in determining treatment decisions for people in a permanent vegetative state. Examination of the duty to respect living people as persons rather than as objects reveals that people in a permanent vegetative state are ...

Exploration, EarlyView.Targeting eEF1A1 with baicalein disrupts the eEF1A1‐Prdx4 interaction to prevent RNF14‐mediated ubiquitination and degradation of Prdx4. This stabilizes Prdx4 to suppress NF‐κB, thereby alleviating sepsis‐induced acute lung injury. ABSTRACT Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome triggered by an uncontrolled host response to infection ...
