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...
Effective conservation and enforcement strategies for marine turtles depend on understanding population structure, connectivity, and the geographic origins of turtles impacted by threats such as bycatch, overexploitation, and illegal trade. However, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) data remain fragmented across studies, with inconsistent sequence lengths, haplotype nomenclature, and metadata standards limiting their application in co...
Summary Despite the ongoing intensive efforts on disentangling the diversity of the genus Carex (Cyperaceae) in South America, there is much still to be accomplished. In this note we studied collections from some of the main South American and North American herbaria, new field collections, and observations from the citizen platform iNaturalist, to report chorological, nomenclatural, and taxonomic notes for 16 South American C...
Bioacoustic Baselines for Intact ForestsNARA Subscribed
Forests are at the frontline of both climate and biodiversity crises: forests are fundamental to the regulation of Earth's atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, and tropical forests alone harbour over half of all terrestrial species. Consequently, forests are at the centre of global efforts to both prevent extinctions of species and sequester carbon to mitigate climate change. Most carbon sequestration initiatives do not measure...
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are promising therapeutic agents for neurological disorders due to their high specificity. However, their clinical application is significantly hindered by their poor transport across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and their limited diffusion within the brain parenchyma. While significant efforts have been oriented to tackle the first barrier, the challenge of efficient brain diffusion remains large...
Rising sea levels and increasing storm wave heights are two clear indicators of climate change affecting coastal environments worldwide. Coastal cities and infrastructure are particularly vulnerable to these hazards, highlighting the need for accurate predictions and effective adaptation and resilience strategies to protect human lives and economic activities. This study focuses on the Andalusia coast of southern Spain, from C...
The ocean plays an essential role in regulating Earth’s climate, influencing weather conditions, providing sustenance for large populations, moderating anthropogenic climate change, encompassing massive biodiversity, and sustaining the global economy. Human activities are changing the oceans, stressing ocean health, threatening the critical services the ocean provides to society, with significant consequences for human well-be...
Dietary vitamin D intake and 2-year changes in cognitive function in older adults with overweight or obesity and metabolic syndromeNARA Subscribed
The protective role of dietary vitamin D intake on cognitive function is of interest, but evidence remains inconsistent. We aimed to evaluate the association between dietary vitamin D intake and 2-year cognitive changes in older adults at risk of cognitive decline. This longitudinal study comprised 5454 individuals (aged 55–75 years in men and 60–75 years in women) who exhibited overweight/obesity and metabolic syndrome. Data...
Positive Feedback on Climate Warming by Stream Microbial Decomposers Indicated by a Global Space‐For‐Time Substitution StudyNARA Subscribed
Decomposition of plant litter is a key ecological process in streams, whose contribution to the global carbon cycle is large relative to their extent on Earth. We examined the mechanisms underlying the temperature sensitivity (TS) of instream decomposition and forecast effects of climate warming on this process. Comparing data from 41 globally distributed sites, we assessed the TS of microbial and total decomposition using lit...
Global Marine Flyways Identified for Long‐Distance Migrating Seabirds From Tracking DataNARA Subscribed
Aim To identify the broad‐scale oceanic migration routes (‘marine flyways’) used by multiple pelagic, long‐distance migratory seabirds based on a global compilation of tracking data. Location Global. Time Period 1989–2023. Major Taxa Studied Seabirds (Families: Phaethontidae, Hydrobatidae, Diomedeidae, Procellariidae, Laridae and Stercorariidae). Methods We collated a comprehensive global tracking dataset that included the mig...
