TL;DR: Drug treatment is justified in older patients with isolated systolic hypertension whose systolics blood pressure is 160 mm Hg or higher and in those with previous cardiovascular complications or wider pulse pressure, suggesting the coronary protection may have been underestimated.

TL;DR: These rapid changes in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine systems, presage changes at lower latitudes that will affect natural resources, food production, and future climate buffering, and highlight areas of ecological research that deserve priority as the Arctic continues to warm.
Abstract: At the close of the Fourth International Polar Year, we take stock of the ecological consequences of recent climate change in the Arctic, focusing on effects at population, community, and ecosystem scales. Despite the buffering effect of landscape heterogeneity, Arctic ecosystems and the trophic relationships that structure them have been severely perturbed. These rapid changes may be a bellwether of changes to come at lower latitudes and have the potential to affect ecosystem services related to natural resources, food production, climate regulation, and cultural integrity. We highlight areas of ecological research that deserve priority as the Arctic continues to warm.

TL;DR: It is shown that 50 to 70% of stored carbon in a chronosequence of boreal forested islands derives from roots and root-associated microorganisms, suggesting an alternative mechanism for the accumulation of organic matter in boreal forests during succession in the long-term absence of disturbance.
Abstract: Boreal forest soils function as a terrestrial net sink in the global carbon cycle. The prevailing dogma has focused on aboveground plant litter as a principal source of soil organic matter. Using C-14 bomb-carbon modeling, we show that 50 to 70% of stored carbon in a chronosequence of boreal forested islands derives from roots and root-associated microorganisms. Fungal biomarkers indicate impaired degradation and preservation of fungal residues in late successional forests. Furthermore, 454 pyrosequencing of molecular barcodes, in conjunction with stable isotope analyses, highlights root-associated fungi as important regulators of ecosystem carbon dynamics. Our results suggest an alternative mechanism for the accumulation of organic matter in boreal forests during succession in the long-term absence of disturbance.

TL;DR: The current status of the technology for ethanol production from softwood is reviewed, with focus on hemicellulose and cellulose hydrolysis, which is the major problem in the overall process.
Abstract: Ethanol produced from various lignocellulosic materials such as wood, agricultural and forest residues has the potential to be a valuable substitute for, or complement to, gasoline One of the major resources in the Northern hemisphere is softwood This paper reviews the current status of the technology for ethanol production from softwood, with focus on hemicellulose and cellulose hydrolysis, which is the major problem in the overall process Other issues of importance, eg overall process configurations and process economics are also considered
