[Real-life utilization of fixed triple therapy in COPD: The Trilife study. Beclomethasone/formoterol/glycopyrronium triple fixed-dose therapy in extra-fine particles].

Introduction: The Trilife study describes the real-life use, in France, of the beclomethasone/formoterol/glycopyrronium triple fixed-dose combination in solution for inhalation, which is indicated as continuous treatment for moderate-to-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Methods: This prospective, non-interventional, multicentric study, involving hospital and office-based pulmonologists, evaluates the proportion of patients for whom the triple fixed combination was prescribed in compliance with the indication and dosage specified in the summary of product characteristics (SPC). Patients were followed for six months.

Pre-contact and post-colonial ecological legacies shape Surinamese rainforests.

Disturbances in tropical forests can have long-lasting ecological impacts, but their manifestations (ecological legacies) in modern forests are uncertain. Many Amazonian forests bear the mark of past soil modifications, species enrichments, and fire events, but the trajectories of ecological legacies from the pre-contact or post-colonial period remain relatively unexplored. We assessed the fire and vegetation history from 15 soil cores ranging from 0 to 10 km from a post-colonial Surinamese archaeological site.

Long-term fire and vegetation change in northwestern Amazonia.

Amazonian forest plots are used to quantify biodiversity and carbon sequestration, and provide the foundation for much of what is known about tropical ecology. Many plots are assumed to be undisturbed, but recent work suggests that past fire, forest openings, and cultivation created vegetation changes that have persisted for decades to centuries (ecological legacies). The Yasuní Forest Dynamics plot is one of the most biodiverse places on earth, yet its human history remains unknown.
