Article Synopsis
  • - Species rely on environmental cues, like degree-days, to time their phenological events and exhibit varying responses based on their location and the season.
  • - The study analyzed data from 91 taxa across 472 sites in the former Soviet Union, finding that spring phenological events advance more consistently with temperature cues (cogradient variation), while autumn events are less responsive (countergradient variation).
  • - Despite some local adaptations, phenological events generally do not keep pace with environmental cues, particularly lagging further in earlier years, suggesting differing impacts of climate change on spring and autumn species responses.

We present an extensive, large-scale, long-term and multitaxon database on phenological and climatic variation, involving 506,186 observation dates acquired in 471 localities in Russian Federation, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Belarus and Kyrgyzstan. The data cover the period 1890-2018, with 96% of the data being from 1960 onwards. The database is rich in plants, birds and climatic events, but also includes insects, amphibians, reptiles and fungi.

The objective of the present study was to determine the size of the vocal folds in the children during the first several years of life. The study included 137 children at the age from the birth up to 3 years who were referred to our clinic for the pre-planned surgical intervention with the use of endotracheal intubation. The length and the width of the vocal folds from the muscle tubercle to the anterior commissure in abduction were measured using a probe specially designed and adapted for this purpose.

The objective of the present study was to compare different methods for the endoscopic examination of the larynx in the newborn babies, during the period of breast feeding and early infancy. Special attention was given to differential diagnostics and the cases of the asymptomatic clinical curse of the disease. Case reports are presented, and the relevant literature data are analysed.
