Identifying and quantifying the dominant factors influencing heavy metal (HM) pollution sources are essential for maintaining soil ecological health and implementing effective pollution control measures. This study analyzed soil HM samples from 53 different land use types in Jiaozuo City, Henan Province, China. Pollution sources were identified using Absolute Principal Component Score (APCS), with 8 anthropogenic factors, 9 natural factors, and 4 soil physicochemical properties mapped using Geographic Information System (GIS) kernel density estimation.

Camera traps are widely used in wildlife research and monitoring, so it is imperative to understand their strengths, limitations, and potential for increasing impact. We investigated a decade of use of wildlife cameras (2012-2022) with a case study on Australian terrestrial vertebrates using a multifaceted approach. We (i) synthesised information from a literature review; (ii) conducted an online questionnaire of 132 professionals; (iii) hosted an in-person workshop of 28 leading experts representing academia, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and government; and (iv) mapped camera trap usage based on all sources.

Understanding the neural mechanisms underlying emotional processing is critical for advancing neuroscience and mental health interventions. This study examined these mechanisms by analyzing EEG connectivity patterns across different brain regions while participants evoked various emotions. After applying independent component analysis (ICA) to eliminate non-cortical activity, we assessed frequency-specific connectivity patterns using coherence, Granger causality, and graph theoretical measures to evaluate both functional and effective connectivity.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) represents the most common inherited kidney disorder leading to kidney failure in a significant percentage of patients over time. Although previously considered as an adult disease, robust evidence demonstrated that clinical manifestations might occur during childhood and adolescence. Therefore, early identification and treatment of the disease are of cardinal importance for pediatricians to ensure the best long-term outcomes.

Lasiodiplodia theobromae is an emerging threat and the main pathogenic fungi associated with basal stem rot of passion fruit in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China. Current pathogen identification protocols are labor-intensive and time-consuming, emphasizing the need for more efficient methods to enable precise surveillance of L. theobromae for early detection and warning.
