Total plasma N-glycomic patterns of COVID-19 diseaseNARA Subscribed
Total plasma N -glycans alter in disease states, with few studies focused on COVID-19. A discovery cohort of 310 COVID-19 patients, replicated with 97 COVID-19 patients and tested with 100 COVID-19 patients, was used to unearth the N -glycans capable of distinguishing infection, as well as prognosis of intensive care unit (ICU) admission and mortality. All significant bisected glycans were decreased in patients compared to con...
Spatial Mismatch Between Black Mangrove Avicennia germinans and Associated Herbivores Along the Range Edge EcotoneNARA Subscribed
Globally, many plant communities are reorganizing in response to climate change, often at different rates than associated fauna. Asynchrony in range expansion between plants and fauna could alter biotic constraints on plant populations. Tropical mangroves are limited by folivory, but little is known about the importance of herbivory on mangroves near distributional range limits in subtropical regions. We hypothesized that herb...
The moult represents an important seasonal change in the physiology of phocid seals. However, physiological measurements are challenging due to the impracticalities of instrumenting moulting animals. The aim of this study was (i) to assess the feasibility of a long-term deployment of fully implantable loggers to measure heart rate (HR) and sub-blubber temperature (T b ) in harbour seals ( Phoca vitulina ) and (ii) to compare H...
Maritime Domain Awareness increasingly depends on publicly available vessel tracking data to support commercial fisheries oversight, but it remains unclear how closely publicly available AIS-derived products approximate the restricted Vessel Monitoring System data that have long served as the regulatory standard. Here we evaluate whether two no-cost public AIS-derived platforms can substitute for restricted VMS data in the eas...
Understanding the effects of climate change on ecological communities has been limited by a lack of general theory for how temperature affects competition. To fill this knowledge gap, we integrated Modern Coexistence Theory and the Metabolic Theory of Ecology by incorporating empirically derived temperature sensitivities into Modern Coexistence Theory's central model. We then simulated warming in consumer‐resource systems and...
