Background: Dementia rarely travels alone. People with dementia (PwD) often have multiple other physical diagnoses (multimorbidity) and experience poor quality, fragmented care. Over two thirds of carers of PwD are spouses, over half of which are 85 years old or above.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPeer review and comments from reviewers are part of the submission process for scientific papers. We provide tips on how best to respond to reviewers, and point out the most common mistakes that authors make. The ultimate goal is to work with reviewers and editors to improve the quality of a paper so that it is accepted for publication.

- Habitat partitioning allows brown and white shrimp to coexist by using estuarine habitats at different times, although they do overlap, particularly towards the end of their nursery residency.
- Laboratory experiments tested how the density and presence of each shrimp species impacted their growth and mortality rates.
- The study found that species identity influenced growth and survival, with smaller shrimp having higher mortality, indicating environmental changes could affect their populations in varying ways.
Understanding the habitat use of individuals can facilitate methods to measure the degree to which populations will be affected by potential stressors. Such insights can be hard to garner for marine species that are inaccessible during phases of their annual cycles. Here, we quantify the link between foraging habitat and behaviour in an aquatic bird of high conservation concern, the red-throated diver () across three breeding populations (Finland, Iceland and Scotland) during their understudied moult period.
