Fixing a heart valve by Nature Research (16552612)

“…Rheumatic fever and carditis are characterized by cardiac inflammation and scarring, which narrows the valves in the heart and restricts the flow of blood through them. These conditions are a major public health issue in many parts of the world, and in economically developed countries are usually treated by a surgical procedure to replace the damaged heart valve. …”

A Long-Term Macroecological Analysis of the Recovery of a Waterbird Metacommunity after Site Protection by Janina Pagel (617287)

“…Non-random selective extinction was the most likely historical process creating the nested pattern, operated by the differential carrying capacity (surface-area) of the remaining sites. We also found a positive temporal trend in nestedness and a decreasing trend in species turnover among sites (β-diversity), indicating that sites are increasingly more alike to each other (i.e. increased biotic homogenization). …”
