Introduction Coastal marine ecosystems are among the most ecologically and socio-economically dynamic regions on Earth, and the study of eukaryotic planktonic communities is an important aspect of aquatic ecology. It is essential to monitor plankton biodiversity and identify influencing factors in order to measure human effects on coastal waters an...

The gut microbiota contributes to metabolic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension, but is poorly characterized in chronic kidney disease (CKD). We enrolled 24 adults within household pairs, in which at least one member had self-reported kidney disease, diabetes, or hypertension. CKD was classified based on estimated glomerular filtration rate...

Marine bacterioplankton play a crucial role in the cycling of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in coastal waters. And the impact of environmental factors on bacterial community structure and ecological functions is a dynamic ongoing process. To systematically assess the relationship between environmental changes and bacterioplankton communities, th...

Vitamin D regulates not only bone metabolism but also many other processes, including the functioning of lymphocytes. Human T cells have a nuclear receptor for vitamin D (VDR). Studies to date have shown significant seasonal variations in conventional T cell populations in humans living in temperate climates. Objectives. The aim of the current pape...

Introduction Determination of morphological and biochemical blood indices facilitates assessment of the health and welfare of horses, their nutrient demand, the effects of training already undertaken, and the horses’ suitability for exercise. Identification of the season-dependent components and the effects of sex and exercise on changes in frequen...

Through their effects on sleep duration, bedroom environments, and pollen allergies, seasonal variations may impact positive airway pressure (PAP) adherence. We analyzed daily PAP telemonitoring data from 25,846 adults (median age 64 years, 67.8% male) treated with PAP for at least 4 months [mean (standard deviation, SD) duration of PAP: 5.5 years ...

N-cycling processes mediated by microorganisms are directly linked to the eutrophication of lakes and ecosystem health. Exploring the variation and influencing factors of N-cycling-related genes is of great significance for controlling the eutrophication of lakes. However, seasonal dynamics of genomic information encoding nitrogen (N) cycling in se...

Baijiu is one of the six primary distilled spirits in the world. It is produced through the solid-state fermentation of grains in the open environment, so high-quality Baijiu brewing largely depends on terrior. Environmental microbes are one of the most important factors affecting the quality, quantity, and flavors of Baijiu. As atmosphere is a poo...

ABSTRACT Accurate precipitation estimation is crucial for understanding the hydrological cycle, its applications in basin-specific planning, and outliers event prediction. Multivariate geostatistics leverage correlated variables, such as terrain elevation and shoreline distance, to reduce estimation error uncertainty. However, the distinct characte...

Objectives Seasonal environment at birth may influence diabetes incidence in later life. We sought evidence for this effect and analyzed the association between the month of birth and the risk of developing type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Methods This was a cohort study carried out with 814 patients diagnosed with T1DM in the region of Bauru – São...
