Purpose Despite persistent bleeding and thrombotic adverse events in patients supported with blood pumps, standardized preclinical assessment of hemocompatibility remains largely restricted to hemolysis testing. To advance the field, robust and comparable in vitro platelet function testing within mock-loop mechanical circulatory support (MCS) studies is needed. This review systematically summarizes current methodologies for pl...
Local and Landscape‐Level Environmental Conditions Drive Habitat Selection Across Terrestrial Mammal SpeciesNARA Subscribed
Aim Animal movements are a fundamental process affecting communities and ecosystems. Quantifying habitat selection across species and habitats is key for understanding how animals respond to environmental change. Currently, we lack comparative studies that examine how habitat selection varies across species traits and landscapes. We aim to quantify global patterns of habitat selection to help understand the fundamental drivers...
Quantifying animal movements is necessary for answering a wide array of research questions in ecology and conservation biology. Consequently, ecologists have made considerable efforts to identify the best way to estimate an animal's home range, and many methods of estimating home ranges have arisen over the past half a century. Most of these methods fall into two distinct categories of estimators that have only recently been d...
Strategic environmental assessment—exploring connections between environmental and health issuesNARA Subscribed
In this paper, how changes to environmental aspects considered in strategic environmental assessment (SEA) can affect human health is explored, based on a comprehensive and systematic literature review. Whilst health is a key aspect for consideration in SEA, how it should be approached has remained subject to discussion. There is agreement, though, that at a minimum, health impacts from bio-physical environmental changes need...
Pelagic sharks target long‐lived, retentive anticyclonic eddies in the Northwest Atlantic OceanNARA Subscribed
Open ocean ecosystems represent the largest habitat on Earth and are highly dynamic in time and space. Mesoscale eddies are a primary driver of this variability and serve a key structural role in ocean ecosystems. Eddies modulate marine biodiversity beyond their impacts on plankton, influencing many ecologically and commercially important predators that may preferentially occupy anticyclonic eddies. However, how animal‐eddy in...
