Mixed-species forests are proposed to enhance tree resistance and resilience to drought. However, growing evidence shows that tree species richness does not consistently improve tree growth responses to drought. The underlying mechanisms remain uncertain, especially under unprecedented multiyear droughts.

This paper presents a causal inference estimation method for longitudinal observational studies with multiple outcomes. The method uses marginal structural models with inverse probability treatment weights (MSM-IPTWs). In developing the proposed method, we re-define the weights as a product of inverse weights at each time point, accounting for time-varying confounders and treatment exposures and possible correlation between and within (serial) the multiple outcomes.

Introduction: Organizational resilience is of paramount importance for coping with adversity, particularly in the healthcare sector during crises. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the impact of resilience-based interventions on the well-being of healthcare employees during the pandemic. In this study, resilience-based interventions are defined as organizational actions that strengthen a healthcare institution's capacity to cope with crises-such as ensuring adequate personal protective equipment and staff testing, clear risk-communication, alternative care pathways (e.

Body composition metrics such as bodyweight, body condition score (BCS) and muscle condition score (MCS) can be readily recorded as part of veterinary examinations in ageing cats. However, the description of how these parameters change with age, whilst accounting for sex and age-related morbidity, is limited. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate age, sex and health-related changes in bodyweight, BCS and MCS in client-owned pet cats.

Conventional radiotherapy based on X rays is used to treat more than 50% of cancers. Although effective, radiotherapy can damage healthy tissues around the tumor due to the X-ray dose deposition profile, as well as the safety margin needed to compensate for dose uncertainties. A notable side effect is cellular senescence, characterized by the cessation of cell division while maintaining metabolic activity and promoting the secretion of various components, called the senescence-associated secretory phenotype.
