Effects of plant functional group removal on caterpillars (Gynaephora alpherakii) performance and plant production in an alpine meadow by Rui Cao, Han Chen, Jingran Cai, Chen Hang, Ziyu Zhang, Yingchun Miao, Peng Xie

“…Further investigation by the confirmatory microcosm experiment indicated that the absence of forbs decreased the feeding time of caterpillars and deprived caterpillars of refuge from the midday heat and intense sunlight, ultimately resulting in lower body size and higher larval mortality. Our findings suggest that forb removal disrupts trophic interactions, with potential cascading effects on herbivore populations, plant community structure, and ecosystem productivity. …”

Role of platelet indices and vitamin D in forecasting deterioration of glycemic control and vascular complications in type 2 diabetes by Maryam Ahmed Obaid Al Ali, Khalid Abdelsamea Mohamedahmed, Asaad Ma Babker

“…Furthermore, diabetic patients had significantly higher levels of fasting blood glucose and hemoglobin A1C compared to the control group, along with higher MPV and slightly lower PDW. The findings suggest a potential predictive role of platelet indices and vitamin D in the deterioration of glycemic control and the development of vascular complications in T2DM patients attending Thumbay Hospital, Ajman. …”

Metasomatism and REE mineralization of the Zilair Formation sedimentary rocks in the Khudolaz complex gabbro massif exocontact zone (Chebarkul area, Southern Urals) by Evgeny I. Mikheev, Ildar R. Rakhimov, Elena O. Shaparenko, Elena I. Soroka

“…According to microthermometry of vapor-liquid fluid inclusions in calcite, the formation of REE-bearing minerals occurred at temperatures not lower than 150 °С. The sources of rare earth elements could be both the Zilair Formation sedimentary rocks and gabbro, as evidenced by the increase in REE concentrations and isotopic composition of oxygen and carbon in silicate-carbonate metasomatites (δ18OSMOW =13.80…15.98 ‰, δ13С = –5.64…–2.18). …”

Studies on Microbial Quality, Protein Yield, and Antioxidant Properties of Some Frozen Edible Insects by Peter Kurdi, Patspon Chaowiwat, Jirathit Weston, Chanida Hansawasdi

“…The highest DPPH radical scavenging activity and FRAP values were detected in samples treated at 135°C, while the protein content of these samples was lower than that of the untreated control. These results indicate that hydrolytic compounds of proteins and probably other types of cricket materials are possibly involved in the antioxidant activities of the treated defatted cricket samples.…”
