Ecological Drivers of Molt‐Breeding Overlap, an Unusual Life‐History Strategy of Small‐Island Birds? by Christopher C. De Ruyck, Nicola Koper

“…These results provide evidence that scarce invertebrate resources and competition likely limit productivity and molt/self‐maintenance in these island‐adapted, species‐depauperate communities, and drive high rates of molt‐breeding overlap, a relatively uncommon life‐history strategy.…”

Association between red cell distribution width—albumin ratio and all-cause mortality in intensive care unit patients with heart failure by Ni Li, Junling Li, Kai Wang

“…Subsequent analysis revealed that the inclusion of RAR significantly improved the prognostic value on the basis of SOFA and APACHE Ⅱ, and the concordance index increased from 0.636 to 0.658 for SOFA, from 0.682 to 0.695 for APACHE Ⅱ (p < 0.001 for both).ConclusionThe study found that high level of RAR was independently associated with an increased risk of 1-year all-cause mortality in ICU patients with heart failure, with a stronger effect in young and middle-aged patients and a threshold effect, which could potentially serve as an early warning indicator for high-risk populations.…”

Characterization of mammary glands and milk fat globule transcripts in lactating buffalo and goats by Hancai Jiang, Xiaoxian Xu, Shuwan Wang, Xinhui Song, Ling Li, Qingyou Liu, Kuiqing Cui, Deshun Shi, Jian Wang, Hui Li, Jieping Huang, Zhipeng Li

“…In goat, more than 99 % of mRNAs and 87 % of ncRNAs (including lncRNAs, circRNAs, and miRNAs) were expressed in both milk fat globules and mammary glands, and over 91 % of mRNAs, 96 % of lncRNAs, 98 % of circRNAs, and 86 % of miRNAs showed no significant differences, suggests that the transcripts in milk fat globules exactly reflect that in the mammary gland. This study suggests that milk fat globules are an effective candidate for non-invasive acquisition of mammary gland transcripts, but their applicability needs further study.…”
