The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend We present a shape modelling‐based morphological analysis of sex differences in cardiac anatomy. We conduct our analysis on 456 healthy subjects from the UK Biobank (227M/229F) to uncover sex‐based differences in healthy cardiac morphology.

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 1151-1163, April 2026.ABSTRACT The expanding demand for platinum group elements (PGEs) in industrial and medical applications has led to their increasing accumulation in aquatic sediments. However, their ecological impacts remain poorly understood, particularly for sediment‐dwelling invertebrates. This study assessed the toxicity of platinum (Pt) and palladium (Pd) across a

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 346-355, April 2026.Understanding rainfall‐driven physiological shifts in dung beetles is crucial to predict how climate change may affect the fitness and persistence of key insect species in tropical pastures. We compared body size, dry, lipid and muscle masses of Digitonthophagus gazella collected during dry and rainy seasons in Brazilian pastures to assess the effects ...

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 6, 31 March 2026.Here, Systemic Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) emerges as a sex‐specific metabolic signal and potential biomarker. Across two large cohorts, Shh rose selectively in females with type 2 diabetes, with a sharp pre‐diagnostic increase in about one‐quarter of cases, indicating value for early risk stratification.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.This study developed a noninvasive method for the DNA extraction and PCR‐based genetic sexing of S. demersus using guano and molted feather samples. Two primer sets (CHD1F/R & 2550F/2718R) were used that target sex‐specific length polymorphisms in the CHD1‐Z and CHD1‐W genes on the CHD1 sex chromosomes. Using methods optimized for the extraction of DNA

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.Flight plays a central role in the life histories of birds but is extremely energy demanding. Reproduction is also associated with high energy demands. We might thus expect to see differences in movement behaviour between individuals that breed successfully, those that breed unsuccessfully, and those that do not breed, assuming that individuals adapt ...

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.Shorebirds typically spend more time fueling and refueling during migration than they spend in actual flight, and consequently their stopover ecology has important implications for fitness and conservation. We examined spatial variation and long‐term changes in stopover duration of radio‐tagged western sandpipers Calidris mauri over three decades on ...
