Optimising remote monitoring for cardiac implantable electronic devices: a UK Delphi consensus.

Background: Remote monitoring (RM) is recommended for the ongoing management of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). Despite its benefits, RM adoption has increased the workload for cardiac rhythm management teams. This study used a modified Delphi method to develop a consensus on optimal RM management for adult patients with a CIED in the UK.

Reproductive Strategies and Population Genetic Structure in Two Dryland River Floodplain Plants, and .

Aquatic plants share a range of convergent reproductive strategies, such as the ability to reproduce both sexually and asexually through vegetative growth. In dryland river systems, floodplain inundation is infrequent and irregular, and wetlands consist of discrete and unstable habitat patches. In these systems, life history strategies such as long-distance dispersal, seed longevity, self-fertilisation, and reproduction from vegetative propagules are important strategies that allow plants to persist.

Implications of the 2019-2020 megafires for the biogeography and conservation of Australian vegetation.

Australia's 2019-2020 'Black Summer' bushfires burnt more than 8 million hectares of vegetation across the south-east of the continent, an event unprecedented in the last 200 years. Here we report the impacts of these fires on vascular plant species and communities. Using a map of the fires generated from remotely sensed hotspot data we show that, across 11 Australian bioregions, 17 major native vegetation groups were severely burnt, and up to 67-83% of globally significant rainforests and eucalypt forests and woodlands.

Different landscape effects on the genetic structure of two broadly distributed woody legumes, and (Fabaceae).

Restoring degraded landscapes has primarily focused on re-establishing native plant communities. However, little is known with respect to the diversity and distribution of most key revegetation species or the environmental and anthropogenic factors that may affect their demography and genetic structure. In this study, we investigated the genetic structure of two widespread Australian legume species ( and ) in the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB), a large agriculturally utilized region in Australia, and assessed the impact of landscape structure on genetic differentiation.
