Previous studies have predominantly explored the response mechanisms of constructed wetlands (CWs) to singular disturbances. In practical applications, CWs are frequently subject to multiple disturbances, resulting in complex interference mechanisms. Therefore, this study aims to select harmful algal blooms and microalga ZM-5 as disturbances to investigate the response mechanisms of CWs. Results revealed a dynamic pattern in COD removal efficiency of CWs, with fluctuations at 39.0 ± 6.2 % and 80.1 ± 4.7 % during the disturbances, followed by a recovery to approximately 65.7 ± 3.2 %. Additionally, the CWs exhibited a capacity for self-recovery and enhanced stability by selectively promoting specific microbial communities through the regulation of the genes responsible for indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and vitamin production. Importantly, this study underscored the establishment of a resilient microbial community structure within CWs following multiple disturbances, characterized by a more interconnected microbial network. These findings shed light on the adaptive mechanisms of CWs in the face of complex environmental challenges.

Smartphone applications (apps) represent promising tools to overcome common barriers to treatment in individuals within the Eating Disorders (EDs) spectrum, thanks to their constant availability and cost-effectiveness. In this context, Cruz et al. (2025) conducted the first meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the efficacy of app-based interventions for EDs.

Background: Mitral valve surgery is a widely performed intervention for the treatment of various mitral valve pathologies. Postoperative conduction disturbances may necessitate permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation. This study aims to identify and quantify patient-related, cardiovascular, procedural risk factors, and risk score-based predictors of PPM implantation following mitral valve surgery.

Despite snappers' (family Lutjanidae) commercial and ecological significance, knowledge gaps remain regarding life history, ontogeny and ecology across their range in the Caribbean and south Atlantic. There is also a need to explore the efficacy of marine protected areas (MPAs) as a tool for enhancing nursery and spawning habitat conservation for multiple snapper species. Additionally, even as hurricanes and sargassum inundation have become rising issues for coastal communities, there is a scarcity of data on how commercially important species respond to these environmental disturbances.

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common neuroimmunological disease in young adults. Data on its clinical onset before the age of 18 (paediatric-onset MS (POMS)) are limited.
Methods: This observational study present data on >1000 POMS compared with adult-onset MS (AOMS) and analysed patients regarding diagnostic delay, initial symptoms and long-term outcome using generalised additive models and adjustment for relevant confounders.
This study aims to tackle the tracking control problem of multiple unmanned surface vessels (USVs). It considers the impact of connectivity-hybrid cyber-attacks in the networked level, and wave-induced disturbances, as well as severe and nonsevere unified modeling rudder angle faults in the physical level. To do this, the study establishes USV models, taking into account actuator fault and cyber-attack modeling.
