Abandoned mine tailings, rich in potentially toxic elements (PTEs), can be redistributed in urban areas through atmospheric resuspension. This process serves as a dynamic geochemical compartment linking legacy contamination to human exposure. This study investigated the occurrence, oral bioaccessibility, ecological significance, and human health risks of PTEs in urban dust from Boquira, a former Pb–Zn mining district in northe...
Motivation The database initiated by the Mountain Invasion Research Network (MIREN) is one of the few globally implemented standardized vegetation surveys in mountains. The focus is on collecting plant species occurrences at 5‐year intervals along and adjacent to mountain roads spanning elevational gradients, with the goal of providing critical information about the ongoing spread of non‐native plants and the potential impacts...
Heterospecific social behavior in primates: insights into the evolutionary roots of pet-keepingNARA Subscribed
Primate interspecific interactions with both other primates and non-primate species range from predator–prey dynamics to affiliative behaviors such as grooming, play, and carrying. While many primates participate in interspecific associations or commensal relationships, to our knowledge interspecific social interactions have never been systematically synthesized. Here, we present the first comprehensive review of such interact...
Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied Syngnathidae (seahorses, pipefish and seadragons). Here, we present the first review of...
Historical vertebrate herbivory drives ontogenetic shifts in plant defense across oceanic islandsNARA Subscribed
Islands with contrasting herbivore histories provide a natural framework to investigate the evolution of plant defenses. Theory predicts that on islands with historically intense vertebrate herbivory, juveniles maintain strong defenses while adults may reduce them once out of reach, whereas islands lacking vertebrate browsers show minimal ontogenetic differences and generally lower defenses. Alternatively, when extinct herbivo...
Influence of surgical intervention on pre- and post-surgery patient specific muscle synergies in children with cerebral palsyNARA Subscribed
Muscle synergy analysis has been explored as means to better understand changes in motor control, with the aim to improve treatment outcomes after Single Event Multilevel Surgery (SEMLS) for children with cerebral palsy (CP). In this single-group study, we assess changes between pre- and post-surgery muscle synergies at both patient specific, and cohort levels after surgical intervention for children with CP. We analysed the w...
Sweet somethings? The extent and proposed functions of vocalizations during and after copulation in vertebratesNARA Subscribed
Vocalizations are commonly associated with pre-copulatory animal behavior, but there has been less research focused on vocalizations during or immediately after copulation (peri- and post-copulatory vocalizations, respectively). Many invertebrates use multimodal signals during and after copulation, but these behaviors are less frequently studied in vertebrates. We reviewed the literature to begin to determine the taxonomic sco...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Peripheral microRNA signature in genetic frontotemporal dementia—findings from the GENFI initiativeNARA Subscribed
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by significant clinical and genetic heterogeneity, with approximately 40% of cases linked to hereditary genetic mutations, including MAPT , GRN , and C9ORF72 . Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of cellular processes related to neurodegeneration and as potential biomarkers for FTD. However, their relevance in presymptomatic stag...
