The hearts of salmonids display remarkable plasticity, adapting to various environmental factors that influence cardiac function and demand. For instance, in response to cold temperature, the salmonid heart undergoes growth and remodeling to counterbalance the reduced contractile function associated with dropping temperatures. Alongside heart size, the distinct pyramidal shape of the wild salmonid heart is essential for optimal cardiac performance, yet the environmental drivers behind this optimal cardiac morphology remain to be fully understood.

Article Synopsis
- Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) can cause significant functional impairments, with limited understanding of recovery in low- and medium-income countries, particularly Colombia.
- The study evaluated the functional status of 45 GBS patients through various assessments and found that many did not receive rehabilitation services, yet most achieved independence in daily activities.
- Findings indicated that socioeconomic factors and the severity of symptoms at onset significantly impacted recovery, highlighting the need for improved access to rehabilitation and healthcare support for affected individuals.
Objective: Online shopping has been described by the scientific literature both for its benefits and the potential risks when excessive usage is involved. Indeed, compulsive online shopping is commonly conceptualized as a potential behavioural addiction that substantially impacts the lives of individuals afflicted by it. In light of this, the present research aimed at exploring the association between possible risk and protective factors for compulsive online shopping, by specifically exploring the role of adult attachment, affect dysregulation, and dissociation.

- Effective global behavior change is crucial for reducing climate change, but it's unclear which strategies motivate people to shift their beliefs and actions.
- A study tested 11 interventions on nearly 60,000 participants across 63 countries, finding small effectiveness primarily among non-skeptics and varied results across different outcomes.
- Key results showed that reducing psychological distance strengthened beliefs, writing a letter to a future generation increased policy support, and inducing negative emotions encouraged information sharing, but no strategy successfully boosted tree-planting efforts.
