Water temperature and dietary lipid levels are key factors influencing fish growth and metabolic homeostasis in aquaculture. This study aimed to understand the interactive effects on growth performance, metabolic response, gut microbiota, and gut evacuation dynamics in flathead grey mullet ( Mugil cephalus ). A 100-day feeding trial was carried out to assess the effects of two dietary lipid levels (10%, L10; 15%, L15) at 22 °C...
Different mechanisms are involved in migraine pathogenesis, including neurogenic inflammation, neurodegenerative processes, and a potential role of microglia. The aim of this study was to assess axonal and glial damage measuring serum levels of neurofilament light chain (NfL) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in migraine patients. Serum samples of 25 patients with episodic migraine (EM), 25 with chronic migraine (CM )...
Assessing storm surge model performance: what error indicators can measure the model's skill?OA Marine
A well-validated storm surge numerical model is crucial, offering precise coastal hazard information and serving as a basis for extensive databases and advanced data-driven algorithms. However, selecting the best model setup based solely on common error indicators like the root-mean-square error (RMSE) or Pearson correlation does not always yield optimal results. To illustrate this, we conducted 34-year high-resolution simulat...
Sunny, hot and humid nesting locations with diverse vegetation benefit Osmia bees nearby almond orchards in a mediterranean areaNARA Subscribed
Wild bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) play an important role as pollinators of many crops and managed populations of Osmia spp. (Megachilidae), through the installation of trap-nests, proved to be efficient in several fruit orchards. In order to optimize the trap-nest protocols, it is necessary to understand which environmental factors play a major role in the reproductive success of these bees. Here, we studied how climate, land u...
Nitrofurantoin-induced liver injury: long-term follow-up in two prospective DILI registriesNARA Subscribed
Nitrofurantoin is a synthetic antibiotic that is recommended as first-choice treatment for uncomplicated urinary tract infections. The prescription of this drug has increased dramatically, especially in Latin American countries. We described the demographics, clinical characteristics, biochemical features, and outcome of nitrofurantoin-induced liver injury. We analyzed 23 cases from the Latin American DILI Network (LATINDILI)...
NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal specie...
NEOTROPICAL XENARTHRANS: a data set of occurrence of xenarthran species in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Xenarthrans—anteaters, sloths, and armadillos—have essential functions for ecosystem maintenance, such as insect control and nutrient cycling, playing key roles as ecosystem engineers. Because of habitat loss and fragmentation, hunting pressure, and conflicts with domestic dogs, these species have been threatened locally, regionally, or even across their full distribution ranges. The Neotropics harbor 21 species of armadillos,...
