Aim We test the hypothesis that wind dispersal is more common among emergent tree species given that being tall increases the likelihood of effective seed dispersal. Location Americas, Africa and the Asia‐Pacific. Time period 1970–2020. Major taxa studied Gymnosperms and Angiosperms. Methods We used a dataset consisting of tree inventories from 2821 plots across three biogeographic regions (Americas, Africa and Asia‐Pacific), including dry and wet forests, to determine the maximum height and dispersal strategy of 5314 tree species. A web search was used to determine whether species were wind‐dispersed. We compared differences in tree species maximum height between biogeographic regions and examined the relationship between species maximum height and wind dispersal using logistic regression. We also tested whether emergent tree species, that is species with at least one individual taller than the 95% height percentile in one or more plots, were disproportionally wind‐dispersed in dry and wet forests within each biogeographic region. Results Our dataset provides maximum height values for 5314 tree species, of which more than half (2914) had no record of this trait in existing global databases. We found that, on average, tree species in the Americas have lower maximum heights compared to those in Africa and the Asia Pacific. The probability of wind dispersal increased significantly with tree species maximum height and was significantly higher among emergent than non‐emergent tree species in both dry and wet forests in all three biogeographic regions. Main conclusion Wind dispersal is more prevalent in tall, emergent tree species than in non‐emergent species and may thus be an important factor in the evolution of tree species maximum height. By providing the most comprehensive dataset so far of tree species maximum height and wind dispersal strategies, this study paves the way for advancing our understanding of the eco‐evolutionary drivers of tree size.

Ranitidine degradation in layered double hydroxide activated peroxymonosulfate system: impact of transition metal composition and reaction mechanisms - Afia Sharmin; Muhammad Bilal Asif; Guomin Zhang; Muhammed A. Bhuiyan; Biplob Pramanik (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2024)
Ranitidine, a competitive inhibitor of histamine H 2 receptors, has been identified as an emerging micropollutant in water and wastewater, raising concerns about its potential impact on the environment and human health. This study aims to address this issue by developing an effective removal strategy using two types of layered double hydroxide (LDH) catalysts (i.e., CoFeLDH and CoCuLDH). Characterization results show that CoFeLDH catalyst has superior catalytic properties due to its stronger chemical bond compared to CoCuLDH. The degradation experiment shows that 100% degradation of ranitidine could be achieved within 20 min using 25 mg/L of CoFeLDH and 20 mg/L of peroxymonosulfate (PMS). On the other hand, CoCuLDH was less effective, achieving only 70% degradation after 60 min at a similar dosage. The degradation rate constant of CoFeLDH was 10 times higher than the rate constant of CoCuLDH at different pH range. Positive zeta potential of CoFeLDH made it superior over CoCuLDH regarding catalytic oxidation of PMS. The catalytic degradation mechanism shows that sulfate radicals played a more dominant role than hydroxyl radicals in the case of LDH catalysts. Also, CoFeLDH demonstrated a stronger radical pathway than CoCuLDH. XPS analysis of CoFeLDH revealed the cation percentages at different phases and proved the claim of being reusable even after 8 cycles. Overall, the findings suggest that CoFeLDH/PMS system proves to be a suitable choice for attaining high degradation efficiency and good stability in the remediation of ranitidine in wastewater.

CamTrapAsia : A dataset of tropical forest vertebrate communities from 239 camera trapping studies - Calebe P. Mendes; Wido R. Albert; Zachary Amir; Marc Ancrenaz; Eric Ash; Badrul Azhar; Henry Bernard; Jedediah Brodie; Tom Bruce; Elliot Carr; Gopalasamy Reuben Clements; Glyn Davies; et al. (Ecology, 2024)
Information on tropical Asian vertebrates has traditionally been sparse, particularly when it comes to cryptic species inhabiting the dense forests of the region. Vertebrate populations are declining globally due to land‐use change and hunting, the latter frequently referred as “defaunation.” This is especially true in tropical Asia where there is extensive land‐use change and high human densities. Robust monitoring requires that large volumes of vertebrate population data be made available for use by the scientific and applied communities. Camera traps have emerged as an effective, non‐invasive, widespread, and common approach to surveying vertebrates in their natural habitats. However, camera‐derived datasets remain scattered across a wide array of sources, including published scientific literature, gray literature, and unpublished works, making it challenging for researchers to harness the full potential of cameras for ecology, conservation, and management. In response, we collated and standardized observations from 239 camera trap studies conducted in tropical Asia. There were 278,260 independent records of 371 distinct species, comprising 232 mammals, 132 birds, and seven reptiles. The total trapping effort accumulated in this data paper consisted of 876,606 trap nights, distributed among Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Bhutan, Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Nepal, and far eastern India. The relatively standardized deployment methods in the region provide a consistent, reliable, and rich count data set relative to other large‐scale pressence‐only data sets, such as the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) or citizen science repositories (e.g., iNaturalist), and is thus most similar to eBird. To facilitate the use of these data, we also provide mammalian species trait information and 13 environmental covariates calculated at three spatial scales around the camera survey centroids (within 10‐, 20‐, and 30‐km buffers). We will update the dataset to include broader coverage of temperate Asia and add newer surveys and covariates as they become available. This dataset unlocks immense opportunities for single‐species ecological or conservation studies as well as applied ecology, community ecology, and macroecology investigations. The data are fully available to the public for utilization and research. Please cite this data paper when utilizing the data.

Fermentation in aquafeed processing: Achieving sustainability in feeds for global aquaculture production - Muhammad A. B. Siddik; Billie B. Julien; S. M. Majharul Islam; David S. Francis (Reviews in Aquaculture, 2024)
Improving feed suitability and bolstering the global upsurge in fish production is a strategic challenge for aquaculture. The utilization of plant and animal derived ingredients in aquafeed for achieving sustainable in finfish aquaculture is affected by various factors, including the presence of antinutritional factors, lowered nutrient bioavailability, indigestible particles and microbial contaminants. Applying fermentation to overcome these problems in aquafeed ingredients has received considerable attention in recent years as fermentation provides health‐promoting probiotic benefits to host organisms. Fermentation has also been shown in many studies to improve nutrient availability and bioavailability of feed, increased palatability and digestibility and eliminate anti‐nutritional compounds in dietary feed ingredients, making them more easily digestible which eventually improve growth and health performance of fish. Therefore, it is imperative to accelerate the use of fermented feedstuffs as aquafeed if sustainable aquaculture is to be achieved. This review reported the various methods of fermentation, characteristics of fermented feed ingredients, factors that are considered during fermentation and overall nutritional quality of fermented feed ingredients for aquaculture production. The role of fermented feed ingredients for various farmed species in terms of growth, feed utilization, gut microbiota composition, immunity and disease resistance in fish is thoroughly discussed. The possible drawbacks associated with the fermentation process are also discussed in the article.

A common anthracycline antibiotic used to treat cancer patients is doxorubicin (DOX). One of the effects of DOX therapy is skeletal muscle fatigue. Our goal in this research was to study the beneficial effect of exercise on DOX-induced damaged muscle fibers and compare the effect of different exercise strategies (prophylactic, post- toxicity and combined) on DOX toxicity. Five groups were created from 40 male rats: group I, control group; group II, DOX was administered intraperitoneally for 2 weeks over 6 equal injections (each 2.5 mg/kg); group III, rats trained for 3 weeks before DOX; group IV, rats trained for 8 weeks after DOX; and group V, rats were trained for 3 weeks before DOX followed by 8 weeks after. Measures of oxidative damage (H 2 O 2 , catalase), inflammation (TNF-α), and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) expression on skeletal muscle were assessed. Also, Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) was estimated. Skeletal performance was evaluated by contraction time (CT), half relaxation time (1/2 RT), and force-frequency relationship by the end of this research. The current study demonstrated a detrimental effect of DOX on skeletal performance as evidenced by a significant increase in CT and 1/2 RT compared to control; in addition, H 2 O 2 , TNF-α, and HOMA-IR were significantly increased with a significant decrease in GLUT4 expression and catalase activity. Combined exercise therapy showed a remarkable improvement in skeletal muscle performance, compared to DOX, CT, and 1/2 RT which were significantly decreased; H 2 O 2 and TNF-α were significantly decreased unlike catalase antioxidant activity that significantly increased; in addition, skeletal muscle glucose metabolism was significantly improved as GLUT4 expression significantly increased and HOMA-IR was significantly decreased. Exercise therapy showed significant improvement in all measured parameters relative to DOX. However, combined exercise therapy showed the best improvement relative to both pre-exercise and post-exercise groups.

Reservoir porosity assessment and anomaly identification from seismic attributes using Gaussian process machine learning - Maulana Hutama Rahma Putra; Maman Hermana; Ida Bagus Suananda Yogi; Touhid Mohammad Hossain; Muhammad Faris Abdurrachman; Said Jadid A. Kadir (Earth Science Informatics, 2024)
Porosity, as one of the reservoir properties, is an important parameter to numerous studies, i.e., the reservoir’s oil/gas volume estimation or even the storage capacity measurement in the Carbon Capture Storage (CCS) project. However, an approach to estimate porosity using elastic property from the inversion propagates its error, affecting the result’s accuracy. On the other hand, direct estimation from seismic data is another approach to estimating porosity, but it poses a high non-linear problem. Thus, we propose the non-parametric machine learning approach, Gaussian Process (GP), which draws distribution over the function to solve the high non-linear problem between seismic data with porosity and quantify the prediction uncertainty simultaneously. With the help of Random Forest (RF) as the feature selection method, the GP predictions show excellent results in the blind test, a well that is completely removed from the training data, and comparison with other machine learning models. The uncertainty, standard deviation from GP prediction, can act as a quantitative evaluation of the prediction result. Moreover, we generate a new attribute based on the quartile of the standard deviation to delineate the anomaly zones. High anomaly zones are highlighted and associated with high porosity from GP and low inverted P-impedance from inversion results. Thus, applying the GP using seismic data shows its potential to characterize the reservoir property spatially, and the uncertainty offers insights into quantitative and qualitative evaluation for hydrocarbon exploration and development.

Introducing Elinor for monitoring the governance and management of area‐based conservation - Shauna L.

(Conservation Biology, 2024)
Monitoring the governance and management effectiveness of area‐based conservation has long been recognized as an important foundation for achieving national and global biodiversity goals and enabling adaptive management. However, there are still many barriers that prevent conservation actors, including those affected by governance and management systems from implementing conservation activities and programs and from gathering and using data on governance and management to inform decision‐making across spatial scales and through time. We explored current and past efforts to assess governance and management effectiveness and barriers actors face in using the resulting data and insights to inform conservation decision‐making. To help overcome these barriers, we developed Elinor, a free and open‐source monitoring tool that builds on the work of Nobel Prize winner Elinor Ostrom to facilitate the gathering, storing, sharing, analyzing, and use of data on environmental governance and management across spatial scales and for areas under different governance and management types. We consider the process of codesigning and piloting Elinor with conservation scientists and practitioners and the main components of the assessment and online data system. We also consider how Elinor complements existing approaches by addressing governance and management in a single assessment at a high level for different types of area‐based conservation, providing flexible options for data collection, and integrating a data system with an assessment that can support data use and sharing across different spatial scales, including global monitoring of the Global Biodiversity Framework. Although challenges will continue, the process of developing Elinor and the tool itself offer tangible solutions to barriers that prevent the systematic collection and use of governance and management data. With broader uptake, Elinor can play a valuable role in enabling more effective, inclusive, and durable area‐based conservation.

CA-Markov chain for simulation and prediction of LULC and assessing the status of water pollution in Manzala Lake after recent development - Muhammad A. El-Alfy; Banan A. Elfanagily; Mohamed A. Zyadah; Doaa A. El-Emam (Journal of Coastal Conservation, 2024)
The Egyptian government recently undertook a large-scale national dredging project to improve the properties and productivity of the northern lakes. Manzala Lake has a distinctive ecological system that offers locals a variety of ecological services. This study was occurred using an integrating approach of remote sensing and Markov modeling to determine the land use/cover (LULC) change of Manzala Lake’s components. The physiochemical characteristics of the water were also measured. Six LULC classes namely; water, crops, vegetation, urban areas, bare lands, and, sabkha were detected in and around the lake in three different years (1998, 2010, and 2022). The LULC transition was studied and predicted using the CA-Markov model. The area of surface water, flooded vegetation, sabkha, and urban areas were increased by the year of 2022. The bare lands were declined more comparing with the past periods. The new developments in Manzala Lake made more changes in the LULC of lake ecosystems. Also, it is an indication to exploitation the bare areas around lakes into new urban areas. The obtained results were necessary for the revised management plan. It is essential for managing the lakes’ land resources, and vital to carefully consider the development strategies to determine how these projects will influence on the environment and biodiversity. In addition, to what extent this lake productivity will improve and help in the recovery of Egypt’s national income.

Direct oral anticoagulants and the risk of adverse clinical outcomes among patients with different body weight categories: a large hospital-based study - Ezekwesiri Michael Nwanosike; Hamid A. Merchant; Wendy Sunter; Muhammad Ayub Ansari; Barbara R. Conway; Syed Shahzad Hasan (European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2024)
Objective Through predictable pharmacokinetics—including a convenient fixed-dose regimen, direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are preferred over previous treatments in anticoagulation for various indications. However, the association between higher body weight and the risk of adverse consequences is not well studied among DOAC users. We aim to explore the association of body weight and adverse clinical outcomes in DOAC users. Methods A total of 97,413 anonymised DOAC users in a tertiary care setting were identified following structured queries on the electronic health records (EHRs) to extract the feature-rich anonymised dataset. The prepared dataset was analysed, and the features identified with machine learning (ML) informed the adjustments of covariates in the multivariate regression analysis to examine the association. Kaplan–Meier analysis was performed to evaluate the mortality benefits of DOACs. Results Among DOAC users, the odds of adverse clinical outcomes, such as clinically relevant non-major bleeding (CRNMB), ischaemic stroke, all-cause mortality, and prolonged hospital stay, were lower in patients with overweight, obesity, or morbid obesity than in patients with normal body weight. The odds of ischaemic stroke (OR 0.42, 95% CI: 0.36–0.88, p = 0.001) and all-cause mortality (OR 0.87, 95% CI: 0.81–0.95, p = 0.001) were lower in patients with morbid obesity than in patients with normal body weight. In the Kaplan–Meier analysis, apixaban was associated with a significantly lower rate of mortality overall and in obesity and overweight subgroups than other DOACs ( p < 0.001). However, rivaroxaban performed better than apixaban in the morbid obesity subgroup ( p < 0.001). Conclusion This study shows the positive effects of DOAC therapy on clinical outcomes, particularly in patients with high body weight. However, this still needs validation by further studies particularly among patients with morbid obesity.

Expanded utilisation of microalgae in global aquafeeds - Muhammad A. B. Siddik; Mette Sørensen; S. M. Majharul Islam; Newton Saha; Md Arifur Rahman; David S. Francis (Reviews in Aquaculture, 2024)
Utilising novel ingredients in aquafeeds is necessary for the continued expansion and intensification of aquaculture production. Microalgae are utilised widely in aquaculture for a variety of purposes; as live feed for fish and shellfish larvae and juveniles, for the production of algae‐based meals and oils to replace marine derived raw materials in aquafeeds, and for the production of astaxanthin, the carotenoid that gives salmon flesh its characteristic reddish colour. Notably, long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, amino acids, proteins, fibres, antioxidant pigments, vitamins and minerals are among the compounds in microalgae with great biological value. A growing collection of experimental data has demonstrated that these substances are crucial for increasing larval survival and enhancing the growth and well‐being of fish and shellfish. In this review, the processing of microalgae utilised as aquafeed ingredient, the health promoting compounds in microalgae and their role in growth, immunity and disease resistance of fish and shellfish are described and discussed. Simultaneously, major hurdles in the commercial use of microalgae in aquafeed, and future research and development perspectives are all critically discussed.

Β-arrestins are intracellular scaffolding proteins that have multifaceted roles in different types of disorders. In this review article, we gave a summary about the discovery, characterization and classification of these proteins and their intracellular functions. Moreover, this review article focused on the hepatic expression of β-arrestins and their hepatocellular distribution and function in each liver cell type. Also, we showed that β-arrestins are key regulators of distinct types of hepatic disorders. On the other hand, we addressed some important points that have never been studied before regarding the role of β-arrestins in certain types of hepatic disorders which needs more research efforts to cover.

The role of miR-433-3p in vascular calcification in type 2 diabetic patients: targeting WNT/β-Catenin and RANKL/RANK/OPG signaling pathways - Amira M. Elshamy; Yasser Mostafa Hafez; Mohamed A. E. Safa; Hoda A. Ibrahim; Mohamed Khalfallah; Fatma H. Rizk; Eman F. Eltabaa; Muhammad T. Abdel Ghafar; Marwa Mohamed Atef (Molecular Biology Reports, 2023)
Background Vascular calcification (VC) is a major predictor of cardiovascular diseases that represent the principal cause of mortality among type-2 diabetic patients. Accumulating data suggest the vital role of some microRNAs on vascular calcification as an epigenetic regulator. Thus, we assessed herein, the role of serum miR-433-3p in vascular calcification in type-2 diabetic patients. Methods Twenty healthy subjects (control group) and forty diabetic patients (20 without VC and 20 with VC) were involved in the study. miR-433-3p gene expression was measured. Runx2, Dickkopf-1 (DKK1), β-catenin, Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL), and osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels in serum were assessed by ELISA technique. Results Diabetes patients had significantly lower levels of miR-433-3p expression in comparison to the control group, with the lowest levels being found in diabetic patients with VC. Furthermore, Runx2, β-catenin, and RANKL levels were significantly increased with concomitant lower DKK1 and OPG levels detected in the two diabetic groups especially those with VC. Conclusion Collectively, the study documented that down-regulation of miR-433-3p may contribute to the development of VC through activating WNT/β-Catenin and RANKL/RANK/OPG signaling pathways.

Inhibition of nitrous oxide reduction in forest soil microcosms by different forms of methanobactin - Jin Chang; Peng Peng; Muhammad Farhan Ul‐Haque; Abid Hira; Alan A. DiSpirito; Jeremy D. Semrau (Environmental Microbiology, 2023)
Copper plays a critical role in controlling greenhouse gas emissions as it is a key component of the particulate methane monooxygenase and nitrous oxide reductase. Some methanotrophs excrete methanobactin (MB) that has an extremely high copper affinity. As a result, MB may limit the ability of other microbes to gather copper, thereby decreasing their activity as well as impacting microbial community composition. Here, we show using forest soil microcosms that multiple forms of MB; MB from Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b (MB‐OB3b) and MB from Methylocystis sp. strain SB2 (MB‐SB2) increased nitrous oxide (N 2 O) production as well caused significant shifts in microbial community composition. Such effects, however, were mediated by the amount of copper in the soils, with low‐copper soil microcosms showing the strongest response to MB. Furthermore, MB‐SB2 had a stronger effect, likely due to its higher affinity for copper. The presence of either form of MB also inhibited nitrite reduction and generally increased the presence of genes encoding for the iron‐containing nitrite reductase ( nirS ) over the copper‐dependent nitrite reductase ( nirK ). These data indicate the methanotrophic‐mediated production of MB can significantly impact multiple steps of denitrification, as well as have broad effects on microbial community composition of forest soils.
