Propithecus verreauxi demography spanning 40 years at Bezà Mahafaly Special Reserve, southwest Madagascar.

The diverse, highly endemic flora and fauna of Madagascar make it a priority for research and conservation. Lemurs, the island's endemic primates, exhibit a distinctive array of biological, behavioral and demographic traits. Research on these species contributes to significant theoretical issues, including the evolution of mammalian life histories and social systems.

Japi 2.0, a gaming platform to stimulate cognitive and non-cognitive skills in early childhood: protocol for a pilot randomized controlled trial.

Background: Mental health disorders are one of the leading causes of illness globally. The importance of psychosocial skills acquired in early childhood, such as executive functions, inhibitory control, emotional regulation, and social problem-solving, in preventing mental disorders has been reported. Furthermore, mental health care delivery is evolving, and mobile technology is becoming the medium for assessment and intervention.

Comparing GPT-4 and Human Researchers in Health Care Data Analysis: Qualitative Description Study.

Background: Large language models including GPT-4 (OpenAI) have opened new avenues in health care and qualitative research. Traditional qualitative methods are time-consuming and require expertise to capture nuance. Although large language models have demonstrated enhanced contextual understanding and inferencing compared with traditional natural language processing, their performance in qualitative analysis versus that of humans remains unexplored.

Mitochondrial Ca2+-coupled generation of reactive oxygen species, peroxynitrite formation, and endothelial dysfunction in Cantú syndrome.

Cantú syndrome is a multisystem disorder caused by gain-of-function (GOF) mutations in KCNJ8 and ABCC9, the genes encoding the pore-forming inward rectifier Kir6.1 and regulatory sulfonylurea receptor SUR2B subunits, respectively, of vascular ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels. In this study, we investigated changes in the vascular endothelium in mice in which Cantú syndrome-associated Kcnj8 or Abcc9 mutations were knocked in to the endogenous loci.
