Unravelling the long-term river health status of Kruger National Park Rivers using macroinvertebrate-based monitoring
Freshwater ecosystems face severe threats from pollution, habitat loss, and climate change. This study analyzes a decade of biomonitoring data (2010–2019) from Kruger National Park’s four rivers using SASS5, habitat, and physicochemical metrics to assess resilience against upstream human pressures.
A glimpse on Mycoplasma species circulating in wild and captive bird communities in Egypt: prevalence and phylogenetic analyses
Wild and captive birds are well known as possible carriers of numerous pathogens, and they have recently received scientific attention concerning human health. Mycoplasma spp. Infections have been detected in a variety of wild and captive bird species worldwide.
Cardiovascular Biomechanics Through the Lens of Artificial Intelligence
While assessing cardiac biomechanics through advanced imaging is well-established, we trace the development of synthetic echocardiogram signals derived from surface electrocardiograms using an AI-driven, noninvasive approach with strong potential for population-wide screening and personalized care.
