The central Sahel: climate change, migration and conflict
The effects of climate change will be particularly severe in the Sahel zone in the coming decades, with rising temperatures, possible widespread desertification and environmental degradation (IPCC, 2019). Policymakers, ...
Perceptions of degrowth in the European Parliament
Degrowth is a sustainability strategy that is attracting increasing scientific interest, but is seen as too radical for politicians to accept, especially when compared with 'green growth'. Here we use Q methodology ...
The link between ultra-processed food consumption, fecal microbiota, and metabolomic profiles in older mediterranean adults at high cardiovascular risk
Background: Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption has been linked to adverse metabolic outcomes, potentially mediated by alterations in gut microbiota and metabolite production. Objective: This study aims to explore the ...
Multimorbidity trends in Catalonia, 2010-2021: a population-based cohort study
Background With rising longevity, multimorbidity is an increasingly important challenge for healthcare systems. We describe trends in the prevalence and incidence of multimorbidity across socioeconomic groups in ...
Daily digital biomarkers in the follow-up and clustering of patients with asthma
Background and Research question: We aimed to assess whether levels of digital biomarkers can reflect monthly patterns of asthma control Study design and methods: We performed a longitudinal study on patients with asthma ...
Distinct roles of histone H2B ubiquitination at promoters and coding regions of Pol II-transcribed stress genes
Background: The histone code, comprised of diverse histone post-translational modifications, intricately regulates nucleosome organization and gene expression. Histone marks also serve as binding sites for a diverse array ...

Augmenting community-driven vector surveillance with automated image classification: lessons from the Artificial Intelligence Mosquito Alert (AIMA) system
The Mosquito Alert (MA) platform leverages artificial intelligence to enhance community-driven mosquito surveillance by automatically identifying mosquito species from geolocated images submitted via a mobile app. This ...
Acquisition of suprasegmental phonology in child bilingualism
Like segmental features, prosodic - or "suprasegmental" - features of language form an essential part of language phonology and are a key ingredient of phonological development. Prosody encompasses both words ...
Photo archives and the history of archaeology
This chapter explores the role of photo archives in the making of archaeological knowledge from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. It discusses, among other topics, their role in the pursuit of objectivity, ...
A polycyclic scaffold identified by structure-based drug design effectively inhibits the human P2X7 receptor
The P2X7 receptor is an ATP-gated ion channel that activates inflammatory pathways involved in diseases such as cancer, atherosclerosis, and neurodegeneration. However, despite the potential benefits of blocking overactive ...

Critical intervention points for European adaptation to cascading climate change impacts
In an interconnected world, climate change impacts can cascade across sectors and regions, creating systemic risks. Here we analyse cascading climate change impacts on the EU, originating from outside the region, and ...
Macrocyclic phage display for identification of selective protease substrates
Traditional methods for identifying selective protease substrates have primarily relied on synthetic libraries of linear peptides, which offer limited sequence and structural diversity. Here, we present an approach that ...

Recent technology advancements in smart city management: a review
The rapid population growth, insecure lifestyle, wastage of natural resources, indiscipline behavior of human beings, urgency in the medical field, security of patient information, agricultural-related problems, and ...
Geometric randomization of real networks with prescribed degree sequence
We introduce a model for the randomization of complex networks with geometric structure. The geometric randomization (GR) model assumes a homogeneous distribution of the nodes in a hidden similarity space and uses rewirings ...
The interconnected wealth of nations: shock propagation on global trade-investment multiplex networks
The increasing integration of world economies, which organize in complex multilayer networks of interactions, is one of the critical factors for the global propagation of economic crises. We adopt the network science ...
Everyday antigypsyism and structural discrimination: how the normalisation of racism shapes social exclusion
In this article, we focus on antigypsyism to inquire how structural racism operates and is reproduced through everyday interaction, being normalised both by Roma and non-Roma people. We link the notion of structural racism ...
The AI music arms race: on the detection of AI-generated music
Several companies now offer platforms for users to create music at unprecedented scales by textual prompting. As the quality of this music rises, concern grows about how to differentiate AI-generated music from human-made ...
