Development of a Theory-Based mHealth App for Fatigue Management in Lupus: Human-Centered Design Approach Open
Background Fatigue is a highly prevalent and debilitating symptom of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), significantly affecting the quality of life and employment of those living with the disease. Nonpharmacologic approaches, such as phys…

Combinatorial characterization of bacterial taxa-driven differences in the microbiome of oyster beds Open
Oyster reefs and beds provide crucial ecosystem services, including water filtration, coastal protection, and habitat provision for marine species. However, these habitats face significant threats from climate change and anthropogenic stre…

Combinatorial characterization of bacterial taxa-driven differences in the microbiome of oyster reefs Open
Oyster reefs are invaluable ecosystems that provide a wide array of critical ecosystem services, including water filtration, coastal protection, and habitat provision for various marine species. However, these essential habitats face escal…

Are Crabs Killing the Nation's Salt Marshes? Open
The National Estuarine Research Reserve System provides an ideal platform for evaluating the relative importance of different threats to US salt marshes, because vegetation is sampled across all marsh elevations and across many regions. Ou…

Pattern and scale: evaluating generalities in crab distributions and marsh dynamics from small plots to a national scale Open
The generality of ecological patterns depends inextricably on the scale at which they are examined. We investigated patterns of crab distribution and the relationship between crabs and vegetation in salt marshes at multiple scales. By usin…

Abstract 1901: Collagen remodeling in clear cell renal cell carcinoma: Influence of composition on growth and metabolism Open
The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an important role in maintaining the structure and function of the kidney. During aggressive fibrotic disease of the kidney, such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), the kidney extracellular matrix is rapi…

Atmospheric rivers and the mass mortality of wild oysters: insight into an extreme future? Open
Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency and severity of extreme events. However, the biological consequences of extremes remain poorly resolved owing to their unpredictable nature and difficulty in quantifying their mechanism…

Coast‐wide recruitment dynamics of Olympia oysters reveal limited synchrony and multiple predictors of failure Open
Recruitment of new propagules into a population can be a critical determinant of adult density. We examined recruitment dynamics in the Olympia oyster ( Ostrea lurida ), a species occurring almost entirely in estuaries. We investigated spa…
