Successful outcome of open distal interphalangeal joint luxation in equids treated by surgical debridement without internal implantsNARA Subscribed
Introduction The distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) plays a crucial role in the function of the hoof and digit. Dislocations and subluxations in this region are rare and primarily of traumatic origin. Case Report This case report aims to describe two unusual cases of open DIPJ dislocation, including clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, treatment, and long-term follow-up. Both animals presented with open traumatic distal...
A framework to inform economic valuation of non-use benefits from coral reef intervention effortsNARA Subscribed
Healthy coral reefs hold significant value to society, not just from industries such as tourism or fishing, but by their very existence. These so-called ‘non-use benefits’ are increasingly endangered as the health of coral reefs faces escalating threats from climate change. Yet, current observation and modelling tools that help guide reef intervention efforts typically do not provide guidance on how the impact of management ac...
Geospatial heterogeneity of hotspots for incidence and late-stage diagnosis of breast, colorectal, and lung cancerNARA Subscribed
Purpose Cancer control relies on the identification of populations at risk (hotspots) of new or late-stage cancer diagnoses. However, the extent to which hotspots differ between cancer sites or between outcome measures has been poorly characterized. We sought to determine the geospatial heterogeneity of hotspots of breast, colorectal, and lung cancer incidence and late-stage diagnoses. Methods We identified adult patients diag...
Multidisciplinary monitoring of mud volcanoes: a new perspective on fluids and seismicity link from the Salse di Nirano (Italy)NARA Subscribed
Understanding the relationship between fluids and seismicity is crucial for improving seismic hazard assessment, as fluid migration can play a significant role in earthquake triggering. Here, we present the results from an innovative real-time multiparametric monitoring implemented at the so-called ‘Salse di Nirano’ or mud volcano field (Northern Apennines, Italy), a region of medium to high seismic hazard. The objective is to...
Functional diversity of Brazilian bees: revealing the unique patterns of the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Bees are essential for ecosystem functioning, pollinating many wild and crop plant species. Predicting which species are most vulnerable to global changes, and how their loss may impact ecosystems and human well-being, is critical. Comprehensive information on bee response and effect traits is fundamental to these assessments. However, the Raunkiærian shortfall—insufficient trait data—remains significant for bees, particularly...
In late June 2021, multiple days of record‐breaking heat caused an unprecedented amount of foliage death in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, USA. Portions of tree canopies with healthy green foliage prior to the heat changed to red or orange shortly after the event. The change in foliage color could be readily seen in satellite imagery and was corroborated as foliar death (heat scorch) by aerial surveys and extensive obse...
As coral reefs face increasingly frequent and severe disturbances, their condition relies more heavily on recovery dynamics. Understanding reef recovery is essential for assessing the long-term ecological integrity and functioning of these ecosystems. In this study, we used structure-from-motion photogrammetry to map reefs at Peros Banhos atoll (Chagos Archipelago) in the three years following the 2015–2016 mass coral bleachin...
Predicting Population Consequences of an Epidemic of High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza on Southern Elephant SealsNARA Subscribed
The colony of southern elephant seals ( Mirounga leonina ) at Península Valdés (Argentina) grew by 0.9% from 2000 to 2022, reaching a population of 18,000 reproductive females. In 2023, an epidemic of the High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza H5N1 virus led to the death of almost all pups and an unknown number of adults. We tested five scenarios that included complete pup mortality along with varying levels of adult mortality and...
