Shifts in subsurface oxygen transport and consumption patterns in a restored coastal flood plain over five yearsNARA Subscribed
Groundwater dissolved oxygen (DO) variability in coastal systems remains poorly understood despite its importance for biogeochemical cycling and ecosystem modeling. This study investigates temporal variability in groundwater DO and its hydro‐climatic drivers across timescales (hourly to seasonal) in a coastal floodplain at Beaver Creek, Washington, USA, a site transitioning from a freshwater forest to brackish tidal wetland fo...
Comparing phosphatised galleried stereom of Ordovician Cincinnaticrinus to modern Endoxocrinus illustrates preservation by micromoldingNARA Subscribed
Fossil echinoderm ossicles are often occluded by syntaxial overgrowths which obscure stereom. Phosphatized ossicles from insoluble residues show fine microstructure. We investigated phosphatized stereom in Cincinnaticrinus columnals in insoluble residues from the Ordovician around Cincinnati, Ohio USA. Microstructures appeared to be stereom micromolds. We tested this hypothesis by examining residue and thin sections of undisso...
Rationale Attentional bias to drug-related stimuli is hypothesised to contribute towards addiction. However, the acute effects of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) on attentional bias to cannabis cues, the differential response in adults and adolescents, and the moderating effect of cannabidiol (CBD) are unknown. Objectives Our study investigated (1) the acute effects of vaporised cannabis on attentional bias to cannabis-related i...
Seasonal drivers of dissolved oxygen across a tidal creek–marsh interface revealed by machine learningNARA Subscribed
Dissolved oxygen (DO) is a key biogeochemical control in coastal systems, and its concentration and drivers vary markedly through time and space. This makes it difficult to accurately represent coastal DO and associated biogeochemical processes in models, limiting our ability to predict how these systems will respond to global change. We obtained high‐frequency (5‐min) in situ measurements of DO collected at three locations ac...
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease of unknown etiology characterized by widespread aggregation of the protein alpha-synuclein in neurons and glia. Its orphan status, biological relationship to Parkinson’s disease (PD), and rapid progression have sparked interest in drug development. One significant obstacle to therapeutics is disease heterogeneity. Here, we share our process of developing a clin...
Prolonging survival in good health is a fundamental societal goal. However, the leading determinants of disability-free survival in healthy older people have not been well established. Data from ASPREE, a bi-national placebo-controlled trial of aspirin with 4.7 years median follow-up, was analysed. At enrolment, participants were healthy and without prior cardiovascular events, dementia or persistent physical disability. Disab...
The acute effects of cannabidiol on emotional processing and anxiety: a neurocognitive imaging studyNARA Subscribed
Rationale There is growing interest in the therapeutic potential of cannabidiol (CBD) across a range of psychiatric disorders. CBD has been found to reduce anxiety during experimentally induced stress in anxious individuals and healthy controls. However, the mechanisms underlying the putative anxiolytic effects of CBD are unknown. Objectives We sought to investigate the behavioural and neural effects of a single dose of CBD vs...
