TL;DR: It is argued that pollinators put high-priority and high-impact urban conservation within reach, and transforming how environmental managers view the city can improve citizen engagement and contribute to the development of more sustainable urbanization.
Abstract: Urban ecology research is changing how we view the biological value and ecological importance of cities. Lagging behind this revised image of the city are natural resource management agencies’ urban conservation programs that historically have invested in education and outreach rather than programs designed to achieve high-priority species conservation results. This essay synthesizes research on urban bee species diversity and abundance to suggest how urban conservation can be repositioned to better align with a newly unfolding image of urban landscapes. We argue that pollinators put high-priority and high-impact urban conservation within reach. In a rapidly urbanizing world, transforming how environmental managers view the city can improve citizen engagement while exploring more sustainable practices of urbanization.

TL;DR: In this issue of Expert Review of Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research, Farivar, Liu, and Hays present their findings in ‘Another look at the half standard deviation estimate of the minimally important difference in health-related quality of life scores’, and confirm the same findings in the ‘Remarkable’ paper.
Abstract: In this issue of Expert Review of Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research, Farivar, Liu, and Hays present their findings in ‘Another look at the half standard deviation estimate of the minimally important difference in health-related quality of life scores (hereafter referred to as ‘Another look’) [1]. These researchers have re-examined the May 2003 Medical Care article ‘Interpretation of changes in health-related quality of life: the remarkable universality of half a standard deviation’ (hereafter referred to as ‘Remarkable’) [2] in the hope of supporting their hypothesis that the minimally important difference in health-related quality of life measures is undoubtedly closer to 0.3 standard deviations than 0.5 [3]. Nonetheless, despite their extensive wranglings with the exclusion of many articles that we included in our review; the inclusion of articles that we did not include in our review; and the recalculation of effect sizes using the absolute value of the mean differences, in our opinion, the resul...

TL;DR: The recommendations provided herein are intended for use by healthcare providers in their management of older adults with frailty in the Asia Pacific region and it is proposed that regional guideline support committees be formed to help provide regular updates to these evidence-based guidelines.

TL;DR: The nucleus accumbens, a major part of the ventral striatum, comprises numerous subterritories and compartments, of which the core and shell appear to be dominant, and it is hypothesized that core‐shell has a feed‐forward functional organization.
Abstract: The nucleus accumbens, a major part of the ventral striatum, comprises numerous subterritories and compartments, of which the core and shell appear to be dominant. Shell exhibits greater chemical neuroanatomical diversity than core and is rather directly connected to it by a robust, feed-forward, striatopallido-thalamocortico-striatal pathway. Shell and extended amygdala share afferents, but the two are distinguished by their outputs, strongly toward cortex for shell and descendent toward brain stem effector sites for extended amygdala. Shell responds independently to stimulation by excitatory amino acids and dopamine, which are more mutually permissive in the core. Accordingly, the shell responds to a broad variety of physiological and pharmacological stimuli, including psychomotor and opioid drugs. Whereas locomotion and oro-facial movements are elicitable from the shell, lesions and blockade of EAA transmission in the core reduce locomotion. It is hypothesized that core-shell has a feed-forward functional organization.

TL;DR: The major experimental system used to elucidate the role of CYP3A4 in the metabolic transformation of these substrates is the human liver microsome system, and cultured human hepatocytes and yeast/cultured cells genetically engineered to express CYP2A4 are also employed by the different investigators.
