Genomic Insights into a New Burkholderia cenocepacia Sequence Type Linked to Cepacia Syndrome in Cystic FibrosisNARA Subscribed
Burkholderia cenocepacia is an important pathogen in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, responsible for chronic lung infections and, in severe cases, cepacia syndrome (CS), characterized by necrotizing pneumonia, bacteremia, and high mortality. Epidemic lineages, such as B. cenocepacia J2315 (ET12) and ST32, are highly transmissible and frequently associated with CS. In this study, five B. cenocepacia isolates recovered from sputu...
This study aimed to assess the prevalence, severity, predictors, and lived experiences of food insecurity among women enrolled in the Women’s Interagency HIV Study in the USA in 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. We hypothesized that pre-existing socioeconomic and health-related disparities would heighten the risk of worsening food insecurity during the pandemic. The 10-item US Household Food Security Survey was adm...
There is a critical need for high‐resolution climate models that accurately capture urban influences on local climates to improve climate risk assessments and support adaptation planning. However, current down‐scaled climate models used for urban heat risk quantification fail to represent urban–rural warming disparities, leading to severe underestimation of urban effects. This underestimation has significant ramifications, esp...
Promoting Research Excellence in Down Syndrome: Proceedings of the 5th International Conference of the Trisomy 21 Research SocietyNARA Subscribed
Down syndrome (DS), or trisomy 21 (T21), represents the most common genetic cause of intellectual disability worldwide and is associated with a wide range of medical, developmental, and neurodegenerative conditions, including a universal predisposition to early-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Since its establishment in 2014, the Trisomy 21 Research Society (T21RS) has provided a global forum for advancing DS research across di...
Pre-Pottery Neolithic plaster burials in Southwest Asia have received little attention to date despite their relative frequency. This study is the first experimental attempt to gauge the effect of lime and gypsum plaster on human decomposition. Three human donors were buried at the Australian Facility for Taphonomic Experimental Research (AFTER). The donors, bound with rope and partly covered with ochre, were placed on the lef...
SNAPSHOT USA 2024: Year 6 of the Coordinated National Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multi‐contributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of speci...
Your brain doesn’t look a day past 70! Cross-sectional associations with brain-predicted age in the cognitively-intact oldest-oldNARA Subscribed
The cognitively-intact oldest-old (85 +) may be the most-resilient members of their birth cohort; due to survivorship effects (e.g., depletion of susceptibles), risk factors associated with brain aging biomarkers in younger samples may not generalize to the cognitively-intact oldest-old. We evaluated associations between established aging-related risk factors and brain-predicted age difference (brainPAD) in a cross-sectional c...
Background and Aims Analysis of fossil phytolith assemblages from palaeoecological and archaeological sites relies on the development of robust modern reference material from soils. This study investigates the utility of soil phytolith assemblages for characterising vegetation and environmental conditions across northern Australia and develops new validated phytolith indices for palaeoenvironmental reconstruction. Methods Phyt...
Optimisation and application of a high-resolution shallow landslide model at regional scaleNARA Subscribed
Shallow landslides pose a risk to infrastructure and inhabited areas. Regional landslide hazard mapping and modelling are important tools for indicating potential hazard areas. We developed a methodology to assess the absolute shallow landslide occurrence probabilities at regional scale in the canton of Bern, Switzerland. Relative failure probabilities from slope stability simulations, using the probabilistic model SlideforMAP...
