Mythos in the light of evolution.
Behav Brain Sci
January 2025
Department of Sociology, University of California, Riverside, CA,
This commentary adds elements of analysis from the new evolutionary sociology that might help to support the mythologic hypothesis. It discusses the likelihood of a more generalized processer rather than exactly evolved psychological mechanisms, the consequences of bottlenecks, and the importance of utilizing molecular, fossil, and primate data in the authors' research program.

Most modern dietary guidelines recommend limiting lard and animal fats due to their potential link to metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, emerging evidence suggests that lard may not significantly contribute to diabetes and that moderate lard intake could even benefit lipid metabolism. This commentary suggests a reevaluation of lard’s classification as a “bad actor” in the context of diabetes, urging colleagues to give greater consideration to and empirically validate this intriguing hypothesis.

Department of Marine Science, University of Otago, Dunedin, 9016, New Zealand.
Article Synopsis
- Polar marine invertebrates are indicators of species vulnerability due to climate change challenges like ocean acidification and warming.
- Their K-strategist life histories, characterized by slow growth and development, make them particularly sensitive to climate stress.
- Understanding the effects of these stressors and the interactions between warming, acidification, and habitat loss is crucial as polar ecosystems face competition from migrating subpolar species.
Aphasia Screening Test (TeRAp): Construction and Validation for European Portuguese.
Acta Med Port
December 2024
Language Research Laboratory. Centro de Estudos Egas Moniz. Faculdade de Medicina. Universidade de Lisboa. Lisbon; Católica Research Centre for Psychological, Family and Social Wellbeing. Universidade Católica Portuguesa. Lisbon. Portugal.
Article Synopsis
- Aphasia is a language disorder often resulting from a stroke or brain injury, which requires accurate assessment, especially during acute phases when patients may be bedridden.
- The study focused on creating a digital screening test called TeRAp to evaluate language processing efficiently and provide diagnostic insights by comparing individuals with aphasia to control groups.
- The TeRAp app demonstrated strong clinimetric values, achieving a sensitivity of 1 and specificity of 0.99, making it a reliable tool for healthcare professionals to detect aphasia.
Construct Clarity in Physician-Hospital Alignment: The Need for Precision in Definition, Measurement, and Management Comment on "Alignment in the Hospital-Physician Relationship: A Qualitative Multiple Case Study of Medical Specialist Enterprises in the Netherlands".
Int J Health Policy Manag
December 2024
Management Department, Opus College of Business, University of St. Thomas, Saint Paul, MN, USA.
The study by Ubels and van Raaij highlights the importance of alignment in hospital-physician relationships and the challenges in understanding, measuring, and managing it. Despite extensive research on alignment, drawing precise conclusions about its nature, drivers, and outcomes is difficult due to construct clarity and construct validity issues. This commentary focuses on clarifying these issues and the problems they create for hospitals attempting to manage alignment, as well as for scientific inquiry in this area.
