Journal ArticleDOI

Tropical rabbitfish and the deforestation of a warming temperate sea

TL;DR: Video-recorded feeding experiments showed that the extensive barrens characteristic of regions with abundant rabbitfish were not due to greater rates of herbivory by these tropical consumers, but rather by functional differences among the herbivores.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of acute stress disorder in DSM-5.

TL;DR: A number of options and preliminary considerations to be considered for DSM‐5 are presented and it is proposed that ASD be limited to describing severe ASRs (that are not necessarily precursors of PTSD).
Journal ArticleDOI

Actigraphy-measured sleep disruption as a predictor of survival among women with advanced breast cancer.

TL;DR: Findings show that better sleep efficiency and less sleep disruption are significant independent prognostic factors in women with advanced breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

The circadian timing system in clinical oncology

TL;DR: The need for the prevention of circadian disruption or the restoration of robust circadian function in patients on chronotherapy is revealed, in order to further optimize treatment effects, and the strengthening of external synchronizers could meet that goal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Social support, substance use, and denial in relationship to antiretroviral treatment adherence among HIV-infected persons.
