Global efforts to deliver internationally agreed goals to reduce carbon emissions, halt biodiversity loss, and retain essential ecosystem services have been poorly integrated. These goals rely in part on preserving natural (e.g., native, largely unmodified) and seminatural (e.g., low intensity or sustainable human use) forests, woodlands, and grasslands. To show how to unify these goals, we empirically derived spatially explic...

In this review, we present our current understanding of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) based on reports of the incidence, diagnosis and current treatment options. We summarise opinions on whether PPCM is triggered by vascular and/or hormonal causes and examine the influence of comorbidities such as preeclampsia. Two articles published in 2021 strongly support the hypothesis that PPCM may be a familial disease. Using large co...

In human glandular endometrial epithelial cells, desmosomal and adherens junction proteins have been shown to extend from a subapically restricted lateral position to the entire lateral membrane during the implantation window of the menstrual cycle. Similarly, a menstrual cycle stage-dependent redistribution of the extracellular matrix adhesion protein α6-integrin has been reported. These changes are believed to be important f...
