Experimental heatwaves facilitate invasion and alter species interactions and composition in a tropical host‐parasitoid community by Chen, J, Lewis, O

“…The interactive effects of climate change and climate change-facilitated invasion have rarely been studied in multi-trophic communities, and are likely to differ depending on the nature of the climatic driver (i.e., climate extremes or constant warming). …”

“…Pitch1 had 52% greater maximum alpha angle than Run (p < 0.001) and were 21.3 (95% CI 2.4 to 192.0) times more likely to have an alpha angle ≥ 60° within at least one hip. …”

Heightened interoception in adults with fibromyalgia by Todd, J, Plans, D, Lee, M, Bird, J, Morelli, D, Cunningham, A, ponzo, S, Murphy, J, Bird, G, Aspell, J

“…The FMS sample were more likely to be classified as ‘interoceptive’ on the PAT, and had significantly higher self-reported interoception compared to the pain-free sample. …”

Sleep and circadian difficulties in schizophrenia: presentations, understanding, and treatment by Freeman, D, Waite, F

“…Treatment is also very likely to lessen psychotic experiences and mood disturbances, while improving daytime functioning and quality of life. …”

Principal competency, teacher readiness, and teacher commitment in STEM education implementation: a qualitative study by Sariati Talib, Bity Salwana Alias, Mohd Effendi @ Ewan Mohd Matore

Journey into genetics: taking the twists and turns of life by Rosli, Rozita

“…Subsequently, the selected research projects that were carried out in the application of genetics and genetic technologies in cancer, especially breast cancer, infectious diseases and therapeutics, including genetic immunisation will be chronicled and highlighted. It is highly likely that human genetics research through the years will become an increasingly more integral component of medical research. …”

Defects in β-cell Ca2+ dynamics in age-induced diabetes by Li, Luosheng, Trifunovic, Aleksandra, Köhler, Martin, Wang, Yixin, Petrovic Berglund, Jelena, Illies, Christopher, Juntti-Berggren, Lisa, Larsson, Nils-Göran, Berggren, Per-Olof

“…We show that these changes are likely to be accounted for by impaired mitochondrial function and to involve phospholipase C/inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate–mediated Ca2+ mobilization from intracellular stores as well as decreased β-cell Ca2+ influx over the plasma membrane. …”
