Monitoring of Colorectal Cancer Screening Adherence Among African American Patients of North Florida Community Health CentersNARA Subscribed
In the United States, colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality rates are higher in African Americans compared to non-Hispanic whites, partly due to advanced stage cancer diagnosis. Timely CRC screening helps to increase CRC early detection and survival in this population. The objective of this monitoring study was to survey African American patients of Community Health Centers (CHC) in north Florida and to monitor CRC screening adher...

Population cycles and outbreaks of small rodents: ten essential questions we still need to solveNARA Subscribed
Most small rodent populations in the world have fascinating population dynamics. In the northern hemisphere, voles and lemmings tend to show population cycles with regular fluctuations in numbers. In the southern hemisphere, small rodents tend to have large amplitude outbreaks with less regular intervals. In the light of vast research and debate over almost a century, we here discuss the driving forces of these different roden...
NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal specie...
The role of environmental factors and landscape heterogeneity on species distribution on different spatial scales is one of the most important questions in community ecology. Variations in the environmental gradient characteristics, host attributes and spatial scales may influence the parasites distribution. The helminth metacommunity of 12 small mammal species was investigated in an Atlantic Forest reserve located in the Stat...
