Systematic literature reviews are widely acknowledged to be at the top of most evidence hierarchies but are very time-consuming and labour-intensive. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) offers possibilities to accelerate the review process. We propose a systematic literature review protocol that incorporates AI and evaluate the accuracy of AI against a human-constructed gold standard. Human researchers performed a syste...
Phenomic Medicine and Metabolic Disease Trajectories: Measuring and Modelling the Health to Disease ContinuumNARA Subscribed
Phenomic medicine is an emerging field that involves measurement and modelling of multidimensional phenotypic data to provide a systems-level framework to understand how health and disease evolve over time and inform decision making in a clinical context . Unlike genomic medicine, which is largely predictive of predisposition, phenomic medicine captures the dynamic biochemical, physiological, and metabolic changes that occur a...
SNAPSHOT USA 2024: Year 6 of the Coordinated National Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multi‐contributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of speci...
Interlaboratory clinical chemistry parameter variation in seven-day acute hydrazine toxicity studies in the Sprague-Dawley ratNARA Subscribed
Clinical chemistry retains its position as a cornerstone of toxicological assessment, yet inter-laboratory variability in baseline values remains a challenge for the integration and interpretation of multisite datasets. This study leveraged a publicly available clinical chemistry database to assess the impact of inter-laboratory variability in response to hydrazine-induced steatosis. Seventeen clinical chemistry and physico-ch...
The Consortium for Metabonomic Toxicology (COMET) studies was designed to model metabolic responses to organ- and mechanism-specific toxins to predict acute drug toxicity in rats. A range of clinical chemical parameters were measured in 7-day toxicology studies for 86 toxins eliciting a range of organ- and mechanism-specific effects. Additionally, 21 surgical or physiological stressors were evaluated to identify physiological...
Observing air-sea interactions on a global scale is essential for improving Earth system forecasts. Yet these exchanges are challenging to quantify for a range of reasons, including extreme conditions, vast and remote under-sampled locations, requirements for a multitude of co-located variables, and the high variability of fluxes in space and time. Uncrewed Surface Vehicles (USVs) present a novel solution for measuring these c...
SNAPSHOT USA 2019–2023: The First Five Years of Data From a Coordinated Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multicontributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of specie...
Hexanucleotide repeat expansions (HREs) in the chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 ( C9orf72 ) gene are the most frequent genetic cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Both are debilitating neurodegenerative conditions affecting either motor neurons (ALS) in the brain and spinal cord or neurons in the frontal and/or temporal cortical lobes (FTD). HREs undergo repeat-associated non-ATG (...
The use of plant genetic resources (PGR)—wild relatives, landraces, and isolated breeding gene pools—has had substantial impacts on wheat breeding for resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, while increasing nutritional value, end‐use quality, and grain yield. In the Global South, post‐Green Revolution genetic yield gains are generally achieved with minimal additional inputs. As a result, production has increased, and milli...
