Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) remain a serious complication following hip and knee arthroplasty, affecting 1–5% of patients in developed countries and posing significant challenges to patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems. Conventional prophylactic strategies, such as antibiotic-loaded bone cement, suffer from limited post-implantation drug release and potential compromise of mechanical integrity. To overcome t...
Multispecies weed mapping using deep learning on UAV imagery for SSWM in maize and tomatoNARA Subscribed
Purpose: Accurate identification and mapping of multiple weed species at early growth stages is a critical step toward operational site-specific weed management (SSWM), yet most UAV-based studies have so far been limited to broad weed categories or single dominant species. This study aimed to evaluate and compare deep learning models for multispecies weed classification, detection and mapping in maize and tomato fields using U...
Global Patterns and Drivers of Seagrass Biomass, Net Primary Production and Meadow StructureNARA Subscribed
Aim We decipher global patterns in seagrass growth and structure to advance seagrass science, facilitate multidisciplinary research, and promote effective management strategies and policy development for seagrass habitats. Location: Global. Time period: 1975 to 2024. Major taxa studied: Seagrasses—marine angiosperms. Methods A global data set on seagrass total biomass, total net primary productivity (NPP), shoot density, and p...
Understanding the drivers of soil organic carbon (SOC) and soil pyrogenic carbon (PyC) variation and their role in natural and managed ecosystems is increasingly important. However, PyC stocks in tropical Andean soils remain understudied. Here, we examined how edaphic and environmental factors affect PyC across elevation and disturbance gradients in 36 plots spanning natural forests and agrosilvopastoral systems in the Colombi...
Molecular characterization of a biological sample, e.g., with omics approaches, is fundamental for the development and implementation of personalized and precision medicine approaches. In this context, quality assessment is one of the most critical aspects. Accurate performance and interpretation of omics techniques is based on consensus, harmonization, and standardization of protocols, procedures, data analysis and reference...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
Evaluating the precise grapevine water stress detection using unmanned aerial vehicles and evapotranspiration-based metricsNARA Subscribed
Precise irrigation management requires accurate knowledge of crop water demand to adequately optimize water use efficiency, especially relevant in arid and semi-arid regions. While unoccupied aerial vehicles (UAV) have shown great promise to improve the water management for crops such as vineyards, there still remains large uncertainties to accurately quantify vegetation water requirements, especially through physically-based...
Purpose High resolution imagery from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has been established as an important source of information to perform precise irrigation practices, notably relevant for high value crops often present in semi-arid regions such as vineyards. Many studies have shown the utility of thermal infrared (TIR) sensors to estimate canopy temperature to inform on vine physiological status, while visible-near infrared...
Diadenosine pentaphosphate regulates dendrite growth and number in cultured hippocampal neuronsNARA Subscribed
During the establishment of neuronal circuits, axons and dendrites grow and branch to establish specific synaptic connections. This complex process is highly regulated by positive and negative extracellular cues guiding the axons and dendrites. Our group was pioneer in describing that one of these signals are the extracellular purines. We found that extracellular ATP, through its selective ionotropic P2X7 receptor (P2X7R), neg...
Long‐term observed changes of air temperature, relative humidity and vapour pressure deficit in Bolivia, 1950–2019NARA Subscribed
This study analyzes the long‐term observed changes of mean (Tmean), maximum (Tmax) and minimum (Tmin) air temperatures, relative humidity (RH) and vapour pressure deficit (VPD) at different elevation ranges across Bolivia from 1950 to 2019. The linear trends in air temperature series present a significant increase, with no substantial seasonal or spatial differences. On an annual basis, RH exhibited a non‐significant decrease...
