The Bug-Network (BugNet): A Global Experimental Network Testing the Effects of Invertebrate Herbivores and Fungal Pathogens on Plant Communities and Ecosystem Function in Open Ecosystems

Author(s): Kempel A; Adamidis GC; Anadón JD; Atkinson J; Auge H; Avtzis D; Bachelot B; Bashirzadeh M; Bota JL; Classen A; Constantinou I; Crawley M; de Bellis T; Dostal P; Ebeling A; Eisenhauer N; Eldridge DJ; Encina G; Estrada C; Everingham S; Fan ...

Plants are consumed by a variety of organisms, including herbivores and pathogens, which significantly impact plant biomass, diversity, community composition, and ecosystem functioning. While the impacts of vertebrate herbivores are well established, the effects of consumer groups such as insect ...

Toward a Sustainable Future: A Holistic Environmental, Social, and Economic Assessment of Industrial Recycling for All-Solid-State Batteries with Oxide-Based Electrolytes

Author(s): Wang Z; Tian X; Zhao S; Zhang P; An C;

The increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries has raised concerns about resource scarcity, battery accident risks, and end-of-life battery management. All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) are emerging as a promising alternative due to their higher energy density and thermal stability. However, the large-scale production of ASSBs necessitates the developmen ...

Body maps of the sensation of musical groove

Author(s): Witek MAG; Matthews TE; Bechtold TA; Penhune V;

Rhythmic music often leads to an urge to move the body in time with the music. This urge to move can be a pleasurable experience. In psychology, we define the pleasurable wanting to move to music as groove. Here, we investigate where in the body these two groove components-movement and pleasure-are felt and whether the embodied sensations depend on the mu ...

Pseudocapacitive MXene@Fe-TA ternary mediator enhances denitrification via optimized electron transfer and microbial regulation in wastewater treatment

Author(s): Pan S; Wang X; Guo T; An H; Guo Y; Chen Z; Lian J; Guo J;

Inefficient electron transfer is one of the main challenges in practical denitrification applications. To address this issue, a novel ternary mediator functional material (Mxene@Fe-TA) was successfully synthesized, which exhibited pseudocapacitive properties to facilitate electron mediation and distribution. Batch experiments revealed that 50 mg/L MXene@F ...

Synergistic effects of exercise, cognitive training and vitamin D on gait performance and falls in mild cognitive impairment-secondary outcomes from the SYNERGIC trial

Author(s): Pieruccini-Faria F; Son S; Zou G; Almeida QJ; Middleton LE; Bray NW; Lussier M; Shoemaker JK; Speechley M; Liu-Ambrose T; Burhan AM; Camicioli R; Li KZH; Fraser S; Berryman N; Bherer L; Montero-Odasso M;

Background: Older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) have a higher risk of gait impairments and falls; yet, the effects of multimodal interventions, including combinations of exercises with cognitive training, on improving their mobility remain unclear. Objectives: To investigate the sy ...

The predictive role of olfactory identification on episodic memory and mild cognitive impairment: Results from the CIMA-Q cohort

Author(s): Jobin B; Phillips NA; Frasnelli J; Boller B;

BackgroundOlfactory identification decline is a known early marker of Alzheimer's disease and is already present at the mild cognitive impairment (MCI) stage. While being linked with episodic memory, its predictive value for cognitive performance and distinguishing between clinical stages remains unclear.ObjectiveThis study examined (1) the predictive ...

Neurodiversity, Minority Status, and Mental Health: A Quantitative Study on the Experiences of Culturally Diverse University Students in Canada

Author(s): Bayeh R; Ryder AG;

Background: There is community knowledge shared among autistic and other neurodivergent (ND) communities that ND individuals are more likely to share other non-normative identities, along with research demonstrating that ND individuals have worse mental health outcomes than neurotypicals (NTs). The purpose of this study is to assess how co-occurrence of n ...

BOLD Long-Range Temporal Correlations Reflect Changes in Language and Depression Across Intensive Aphasia Therapy

Author(s): Jäger AP; Steele CJ; Dreyer FR; Osterloh MR; Sadlon A; Nikulin V; Mohr B; Pulvermüller F;

Background: Intensive language-action therapy treats language deficits and depressive symptoms in chronic poststroke aphasia, yet the underlying neural mechanisms remain underexplored. Long-range temporal correlations (LRTCs) in blood oxygenation level-dependent signals indicate persistence in brain activity patterns and may relate to learning and levels ...

How do we know that they actually use it? Exploring measures of adherence to stress management strategies in university students: A systematic review

Author(s): Bastien L; Cho S; Petrovic J; Khoury B; Bloom E; Heath N;

University students are reporting high levels of stress that interfere with their academic performance and daily functioning. In response, higher education institutions have increasingly implemented digital, self-guided stress management resources to provide students with accessible mental health support. While these interventions show promise for improvi ...

A novel span and syntax enhanced large language model based framework for fine-grained sentiment analysis

Author(s): Zou H; Wang Y; Huang A;

Fine-grained aspect-based sentiment analysis requires language models to identify aspect entities and the corresponding sentiment information in the input text content. Transformer-based pre-trained large language models have demonstrated remarkable performance on various challenging natural language processing tasks. However, large language models face l ...
