Dendropsophusis one of the most species-rich genera of treefrogs. Recent studies integrating Sanger-generated mitochondrial and nuclear loci with phenomic characters (SP) have advanced understanding of this clade, but questions about its internal relationships and biogeographic history persist. To address these questions, we used anchored hybrid enrichment (AHE) to combine 432 nuclear loci for 78 taxa (72 % of species) with published data.

There are few psychometrically sound measures of overprotection designed for the caregiver and focusing largely on overt behaviours and actions. The Parental Overprotection Measure (POM) was developed for research with preschool aged children and has been used in a range of research projects and translated into several languages. However, its full psychometric properties have not previously been reported.

The flat mite Tenuipalpus uvae De Leon (Acari: Tenuipalpidae): descriptions of all stages, ontogeny of setae and morphometric analysis.

Zootaxa

July 2024

Programa de Pós-Graduação em Produção Vegetal; Universidade Estadual de Santa Cruz (UESC); Rodovia Jorge Amado km 16; Ilhéus; BA; 45662-900; Brazil.

Article Synopsis
  • - The flat mite species Tenuipalpus uvae, found in the Americas, is redescribed using both older and newly collected specimens from Florida and Brazil, revealing more details about its morphology, including new descriptions for various life stages.
  • - Three key distinguishing features were identified: a shorter seta v2, the serrated, rodlike sc1-2, and specific characteristics of the leg tibiae, which help differentiate T. uvae from other mites.
  • - Notable variations in dorsal surface morphology were observed, particularly in the Florida population, indicating potential influences from aging, environmental factors, or host relationships, suggesting that further research is necessary to understand these differences.

Protocol for the implementation and referral of the ecofit physical activity intervention within Diabetes Alliance Program Plus among regional, rural and remote people with type 2 diabetes in a primary care setting.

Contemp Clin Trials

December 2024

Centre for Active Living and Learning, School of Education, University of Newcastle, Callaghan, NSW, Australia; Active Living and Learning Research Program, Hunter Medical Research Institute, New Lambton Heights, NSW, Australia. Electronic address:

Background: This paper outlines the protocol for the ecofit implementation-effectiveness trial, a multi-component mobile Health (mHealth) intervention that aims to increase resistance and aerobic physical activity in primary care-based adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study will be conducted as part of the Diabetes Alliance Program Plus (DAP+), a large-scale integrated health service intervention in a large health district in Australia. The ecofit program has previously demonstrated efficacy and effectiveness in insufficiently active people with (or at risk of) T2D and community dwelling-adults, respectively.

High-Temperature Characterization of AlGaN Channel High Electron Mobility Transistor Based on Silicon Substrate.

Micromachines (Basel)

October 2024

State Key Laboratory of Wide-Bandgap Semiconductor Devices and Integrated Technology, School of Microelectronics, Xidian University, Xi'an 710071, China.

Article Synopsis
  • * The threshold voltage maintains stability with a minimal variation of 0.1 V, and off-state leakage current only slightly increases under high temperatures (from 2.87 × 10 to 1.85 × 10 mA/mm).
  • * High temperatures introduce two trap states that slightly degrade performance, but overall, the findings support AlGaN HEMT's suitability for high-temperature applications, advancing the field of ultra-wide gap semiconductors. *
