Towards an aligned nutritional and environmental impact assessment: a state-of-the-art reviewNARA Subscribed
Purpose While nutritional life cycle assessment (n-LCA) aims to integrate health and environmental sustainability, the compatibility of underlying data and methodological choices remains unclear. So, this study critically evaluates whether nutritional and environmental dimensions are methodologically adequate and aligned in n-LCAs. We assessed the consistency of functional units, system boundaries, data sources, geographic rep...
Soil Microbial Diversity and Network Organization Respond to Land Use and Agricultural Inputs WorldwideNARA Subscribed
Soil microbiomes are critical for ecosystem functioning, yet the global influences of climate and agricultural practices on their diversity and structure remain incompletely characterized. Here we analyzed 1921 soil samples from 33 countries worldwide across diverse biomes to assess how climate gradients and agricultural inputs, including pesticides and fertilizers, shape prokaryotic and fungal communities. We found that micro...
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a severe neurodegenerative disease affecting motor neurons. Pathological forms of Tar-DNA binding protein-43 (TDP-43), involving its mislocalisation to the cytoplasm and the formation of misfolded inclusions, are present in almost all ALS cases (97%), and ~ 50% cases of the related condition, frontotemporal dementia (FTD), highlighting its importance in neurodegeneration. Previous studies...
Carbon footprint of higher education institutionsNARA Subscribed
Higher education institutions (HEIs) play a fundamental role in sustainability, promoters of innovation, science, and technology. Therefore, every day more institutions are joining the fight against global warming. One of the contributions of HEIs is the carbon footprint (CF) report, to implement policies and management systems to establish strategies to reduce polluting gas emissions from their campuses. In the present study,...
