New Publication Alert!
I’m excited to share our latest research, published in Scientific Reports, titled:
“Emergency response for recently isolated Foot and Mouth Disease virus type A Africa in Egypt 2022”
In 2022, Egypt faced a severe outbreak of Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) caused by the A/Africa/G-IV variant.

@SciMag is alarmed that low quality articles are flawing #SystematicReviews.
One solution is to only include studies that are in #opendata.
Another is to ignore #predatory and journals in the "gray zone" (e.g. all #MDPI, #Frontiers, #ScientificReports, etc.) as we already do in evaluation committees.
Our study on subjective and objective workload of #intensive #care #nurses is published in #ScientificReports. https://rdcu.be/dVzd7
#Criticalcare nurses experience a subjective high mental load, moderate pace and amount of work and physical load, and low emotional-moral load. Objective measurement instruments such as the TISS-28, NEMS, SGI category, patient-to-nurse ratio reflect some aspects of stress from direct patient care but not all ... #oa #science @nursingresearch @nursing #staffing
New research from *Scientific Reports* shows that how you perceive time is tied to the amount of new information your brain processes. When you're young, everything feels new, so your brain works harder, making time seem to move slowly. As you age, fewer things feel novel, so your brain has less to process, and time seems to fly by. Additionally, once we hit our 20s, the release of dopamine in response to new experiences begins to decline, further contributing to the sensation that time is speeding up.

Im 14. Jahrhundert haben #Sturmfluten den Verwaltungsbezirk Edomsharde im heutigen nordfriesischen Wattenmeer komplett zerstört. Zu dieser Harde gehörte auch die sagenhafte Siedlung #Rungholt. Den aktuellen Stand der Forschung dazu hat ein Team von @unimainz, #LEIZA, #UniKiel #ALSH und #ClusterROOTS jetzt in @Nature #ScientificReports veröffentlicht: https://www.uni-kiel.de/de/cluster-roots/detailansicht/news/das-erste-umfassende-bild-von-rungholt

Fun times at #ScientificReports 
Next time I hear people complainibg that preprints do not really count, because are not peer reviewed... "Let me tell ya about that love story in Sci Rep"...

#Study finds #female #astronauts more efficient, suggesting #future #space missions with all-female crews
"#Researchers from the #SpaceMedicineTeam, #EuropeanSpaceAgency in #Germany have conducted a study published in #ScientificReports that found female astronauts have lower water requirements for hydration, total energy expenditure, oxygen (O2) consumption, carbon dioxide (CO2) and metabolic heat production during space exploration missions compared to their male counterparts."

‘Deletions’ From the Human Genome May Be What Made Us Human:
The loss of about 10,000 bits of DNA over the course of our evolutionary history helped differentiate us from other mammals, a team of Yale researchers found.

Paper co-authored with collaborators in Mexico accepted for publication in #scientificreports
Title: Moral reasoning and moral competence as predictors of cooperative behavior in a social dilemma
In the prisoner's dilemma game, participants with developed (postconventional) moral reasoning and stronger moral competence (consistently applying reasoning across situations) more cooperated even after being defected by their counterparts.

New Compound Inhibits Influenza Virus Replication:
A research team has identified a compound which inhibits the body's own methyltransferase MTr1, thereby limiting the replication of influenza viruses. The compound proved effective in lung tissue preparations and mouse studies and showed synergistic effects with already approved influenza drugs

Interesting study in #ScientificReports that did #transcriptome profiling of surgically-removed calcified aortic valves from patients with/without #ClonalHematopoiesis. The authors found broad changes to immune cell infiltrates but also to #antibody profiles that correlated with survival. This last point is cool because CH's impact on #myeloid biology is often discussed, but it can obviously have important effects on #lymphoid cells, too: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-24130-8 #science #medicine #cardiology
