Fig abscission as a defense mechanism of Ficus trees against parasitism by non-pollinating fig wasps.

How does the fig tree Ficus benguetensis protect its investment in the production of figs and pollinating fig wasps against parasitism from non-pollinating fig wasps? This study documents a previously overlooked defense mechanism: fig abscission-the natural shedding of the fig fruit as a defense mechanism. Our bagging experiments showed that both the absence of pollination and high parasitism levels lead to the abortion of F. benguetensis figs, with positive correlations between parasitism levels, increased abscission rates, and decreased pollinator production.

Background: Natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML) techniques may help harness unstructured free-text electronic health record (EHR) data to detect adverse drug events (ADEs) and thus improve pharmacovigilance. However, evidence of their real-world effectiveness remains unclear.
Objective: To summarise the evidence on the effectiveness of NLP/ML in detecting ADEs from unstructured EHR data and ultimately improve pharmacovigilance in comparison to other data sources.

Public understanding of medical innovations such as smart technology is decisive for its acceptance and implementation. Thus, it is important to understand what visions people develop of a technology based on initial information such as the label. We chose smart implants as an example and conducted qualitative interviews with 47 former implant patients to record their mental models after exposing them to the idea of smart implants through a vignette.
