Impact of prey species, host plant, and predator sex on the functional response of Orius strigicollis by Yi-Ting Hung, Cheng-Kang Tang, Yi-Ting Chung, Wei-Han Lai, Han-Yan Ding, Ali Güncan, Pavel Saska, Shu-Jen Tuan

“…To investigate the impact of prey species, host plant, and predator sex, we measured trichome length and density on eggplant and bean leaves and assessed body dimensions and mobility of both predator and prey. Functional response analysis, Pearson’s correlation, and principal component analysis (PCA) were employed to determine the extent to which these factors affected handling time and attack rate under varying conditions. …”

Decline of kidney function is associated with lower sweat weight in patients with chronic kidney disease by Tarik Shoumariyeh, Florian Logar, Oliver Helk, Johannes Hofer, Klaus G. Schmetterer, Brigitte Mersi, Saskia Gruber, Marcus D. Säemann, Christopher C. Kaltenecker, Johannes J. Kovarik

“…Sweat sodium concentrations were increased in moderate CKD, however, this effect was lost in end-stage kidney disease with and without requirement of hemodialysis: adj R2 = 0.3701, F(4, 59) = 10.26, p = 2.261e-06. Diagnostic sweat analysis represents an innovative, non-invasive option for a more thorough investigation of sodium- and fluid homeostasis in CKD. …”

Abnormal intrahemispheric and interhemispheric dynamic functional connectivity density in male alcohol use disorder by Bohui Mei, Yarui Wei, Longyao Ma, Qiuying Tao, Jinghan Dang, Jieping Sun, Mengzhe Zhang, Yong Zhang, Jingliang Cheng

“…However, brain activity is highly dynamic.MethodsTo address this, we analyzed the dynamic changes in intrahemispheric and interhemispheric connectivity patterns from 55 AUD patients and 32 healthy controls. The whole-brain functional connectivity was decomposed into ipsilateral and contralateral components, and the voxel-wise intrahemispheric and interhemispheric dynamic functional connectivity density (dFCD) was calculated using a sliding window analysis. …”
