Modelling plant disease spread and containment: Simulation and approximate Bayesian Computation for Xylella fastidiosa in Puglia, Italy Open
Mathematical and computational models play a crucial role in understanding the epidemiology of economically important plant disease outbreaks, and in evaluating the effectiveness of surveillance and disease management measures. A case in p…

Effects of Empagliflozin on Urine Biomarkers in EMPA-KIDNEY Open
Sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors or "flozins" are medications that prevent kidney failure and acute kidney injury in a broad range of patients with kidney disease. However, exactly how these drugs exert their kidney protective eff…

Trait‐mediated filtering of <i>Phytophthora</i> pathogen invasions through global horticultural trade networks Open
Summary Estimates of invasion risk can support prioritisation of future threats from non‐native species. Greater risk of invasion is expected when species occur in connected source regions and possess traits promoting successful transport,…

Calibrating multiplex serology for Helicobacter pylori Open
Background Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori ) is a bacterium that colonizes the stomach and is a major risk factor for gastric cancer, with an estimated 89% of non-cardia gastric cancer cases worldwide attributable to H. pylori . Prospectiv…

Interference of urine tubular biomarker measurements by glycosuria: implications when using SGLT2 inhibitors Open
Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are recommended for use in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and are widely prescribed. SGLT2 inhibition markedly increases urine glucose excretion, which could interfere with labor…
Landscape‐Scale Responses of Freshwater Biodiversity to Connectivity and Stressors Open
Aim There is compelling evidence that drivers and patterns of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning vary across multiple spatial scales, from global to regional, landscape and patch. However, macroecological processes impacting freshwater…
Risk prioritization of bamboo species in the <span>EPPO</span> region Open
Bamboos are popular ornamental plants in the EPPO region though some of them have been observed to escape the confines of planting and establish in the natural environment. The aim of this study is to produce a risk‐based list of bamboo sp…

Historic Land Use Modifies Impacts of Climate and Isolation in Rear Edge European Beech (<i>Fagus sylvatica L.</i>) Populations Open
Legacies of human land use have the potential to impact demographic responses to climate. However, few studies have investigated the interactive effects of land use legacies and climate change on tree demography. The demographic performanc…

Bornean tropical forests recovering from logging at risk of regeneration failure Open
Active restoration through silvicultural treatments (enrichment planting, cutting climbers and liberation thinning) is considered an important intervention in logged forests. However, its ability to enhance regeneration is key for long‐ter…
Evidence of biotic resistance to exotic plant invasion in degraded Bornean forests Open
Intact tropical forests are generally considered to be resistant to invasions by exotic species, although the shrub Clidemia hirta (Melastomataceae) is highly invasive in tropical forests outside its native range. Release from natural enem…

Interference of urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio measurement by glycosuria: clinical implications when using SGLT-2 inhibitors Open
Urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) measured on spot samples provides a convenient method to screen for, diagnose, stage, and monitor chronic kidney disease (CKD),1Stevens P.E. Levin A. Evaluation and management of chronic kidney di…
An emerging weed: rapid spread of Solanum carolinense in Austria Open
Solanum carolinense is a perennial herb native to North America and regarded to be a major agricultural problem in crops and pastures in several parts of the world. In south-eastern Austria, S. carolinense is in a phase of range filling an…

Interference of urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio measurement by glycosuria: clinical implications when using SGLT-2 inhibitors Open
Albuminuria is used for chronic kidney disease (CKD) screening, diagnosis, staging, and monitoring. A change in albuminuria has been proposed as a surrogate outcome for CKD progression. High glucose concentration interferes with Jaffe seru…
Prostate Cancer Malignancy Detection and localization from mpMRI using auto-Deep Learning: One Step Closer to Clinical Utilization Open
Automatic diagnosis of malignant prostate cancer patients from mpMRI has been studied heavily in the past years. Model interpretation and domain drift have been the main road blocks for clinical utilization. As an extension from our previo…

Improving knowledge of Xylella fastidiosa vector ecology: modelling vector occurrence and abundance in the wider landscape in Scotland Open
The insect-vectored, bacterial plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa is currently absent from Scotland and the wider UK, but if introduced could be a serious threat to trees and other plants. However, there is a lack of knowledge about the eco…

PHYTO-THREATS: Addressing Threats to UK Forests and Woodlands from Phytophthora; Identifying Risks of Spread in Trade and Methods for Mitigation Open
The multidisciplinary ‘Phyto-threats’ project was initiated in 2016 to address the increasing risks to UK forest and woodland ecosystems from trade-disseminated Phytophthora. A major component of this project was to examine the risk of Phy…

The potential of ecological and epidemiological models to inform assessment and mitigation of biosecurity risks arising from large scale planting Open
Exotic pests and pathogens are introduced to new regions primarily through human movements of plants and plant products, with devastating consequences for individual host species, ecosystem function and society. Large scale planting projec…
Developing a spatial epidemiological model to estimate Xylella fastidiosa dispersal and spread Open
Understanding the dispersal of Xylella fastidiosa is essential for effective management of the disease. In Puglia, Italy, surveillance is focused on buffer and containment zones established at the edge of the infected region with the aim o…

Habitat loss, predation pressure and episodic heat-shocks interact to impact arthropods and photosynthetic functioning of microecosystems Open
Ecosystems face multiple, potentially interacting, anthropogenic pressures that can modify biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Using a bryophyte–microarthropod microecosystem we tested the combined effects of habitat loss, episodic hea…
Assessing multiple stressor effects to inform climate change management responses in three European catchments Open
Interactions between stressors in freshwater ecosystems, including those associated with climate change and nutrient enrichment, are currently difficult to detect and manage. Our understanding of the forms and frequency of occurrence of su…
