摘要： Although the role of recreational harvest on size structure of declining fish populations is often unclear, bag and size limits are often implemented to prevent overharvest. Long-term monitoring and periodic assessments of stock status then become necessary to evaluate their potential impacts. Based on a long-term gillnet monitoring program in the St. Lawrence River, Qu & eacute;bec, Canada, the effects of a 381-545 mm harvest-slot length limit implemented in 2011 were evaluated on walleye (Sander vitreus). Mixed-effects models revealed continued declines in the abundance of large walleyes, size distribution, total annual mortality, and female growth, condition, and size-at-maturity. Expected impacts were mostly not achieved, potentially because of environmental and trophic interaction changes in the St. Lawrence River, in addition to increasing fishing pressure. Our results highlight a need to reassess current walleye fisheries management strategies.

摘要： This vital topics forum focuses on the host of challenges that now threaten the future of anthropology. The political polarization of the current era, along with the economic rationale that matches it, leads to policy and legislation restricting content and speech in universities, cuts and closure of anthropology programs, and the loss of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. This combines the loss of careers and opportunities with the elimination of anthropological perspectives from the public discourse. Cultural shifts delegitimize and devalue the discipline, which struggles not only to increase its ranks but also to maintain its presence within and outside the academy. The articles within this vital topics forum engage with these challenges while raising an alarm to all anthropologists that threats to the discipline are real and requires immediate responses from practitioners, instructors, scholars, programs and departments, and our professional organizations.

摘要： The article explores potential ecofeminist themes present in YA fantasy literature, represented by Donde los & aacute;rboles cantan [Where the Trees Sing] by Laura Gallego, The Nature of Witches by Rachel Griffin (Griffin, The Nature of Witches, Sourcebooks. mobi, Naperville, 2021), and The Lone City trilogy by Ami Ewing (Ewing, The Jewel, HarperTeen, New York, 2014;Ewing, The White Rose, HarperTeen, New York, 2015;Ewing, The Black Key, HarperTeen, New York, 2016;). The author posits that, since fantasy books have become a popular reading choice among young people, they play a pivotal role in the transmission of sociocultural patterns and beliefs, including those regarding gender roles and the natural environment, and in an era marked by a growing environmental crisis, there is a pressing need to examine YA literature for its role in shaping ecological awareness. Bridging ecocriticism and feminist criticism, this article examines how femininity is constructed in YA fantasy literature through an ecofeminist lens. The first section outlines the theoretical framework of ecofeminism and ecofeminist literary criticism, and the second section briefly discusses postfeminism. The analysis presented reveals various strategies used in the literary narratives to weave in ecofeminist topics and messages. While all the novels examined imply the need to develop an ethics of care and empathy towards the natural environment and marginalised social groups, question the binary categories of human/non-human and nature/culture, and aim to redefine relationships between women and nature, they also reveal ideological tensions, referring to both ecofeminist postulates and reflections, as well as anthropocentric and falsely feminist convictions.

摘要： Among mental health disorders in the perinatal period, postpartum depression and anxiety are particularly common and iteratively attract research interest. Less focus, however, is placed on postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and that develops following traumatic experiences during childbirth. Previously, post-traumatic stress disorder was primarily associated with wartime experiences, but it is now understood that various situations perceived as traumatic - such as childbirth - can also trigger this disorder. Our study aims to provide an overview of the risk factors contributing to postpartum post-traumatic stress disorder, its prevalence, and the lasting impacts that can challenge the mother-child relationship. Managing post-traumatic stress disorder presents a significant challenge for mental health professionals, necessitating the development of effective therapeutic interventions that offer individuals a chance for recovery. Efforts aimed at preventing childbirth-related post-traumatic stress disorder, as well as moderating its severe consequences, still require changes at conceptual, procedural, and practical levels. The availability of complex, problem-focused psychological support remains limited, with restricted access for affected individuals, as well as a shortage of qualified professionals.

摘要： BackgroundThere is reason to believe that unfavorable outcomes of non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) is due to the "risk-treatment" paradox (RTP). However, the true prevalence, types and causes of RTP have not been studied, and data from previous studies have shown an equivocal effect of RTP on outcomes of *** retrospective analysis included 600 patients initially diagnosed with NSTE-ACS. Upon admission, all patients were re-stratified into four groups according to their risk of adverse ischemic events. RTP was defined as a mismatch between a patient's risk profile and the recommended invasive *** was present in 53.5% of the study population (321/600), with the highest frequency observed in the intermediate-risk group (74%) and the lowest in the high-risk group (28.5%). In the overall cohort, the presence of RTP (n = 321) was not associated with a significant difference in in-hospital adverse cardiovascular events or length of stay compared to patients without RTP (n = 279). After adjustment for RTP in each risk group, only the high-risk group showed an increase in adverse outcomes in the presence of RTP (5.4% mortality vs. 2.9% (OR 1.9 (95% CI 0.5-8.9), p = 0.037) and a negative effect of RTP on the risk of recurrent myocardial ischemia (RMI) after 24 h (7.1% vs. 0.7%, OR 10.7 (95% CI 1.2-97.9), p = 0.01).ConclusionsRTP in relation to the type of invasive strategy is common in patients with NSTE-ACS (53.5%). For high-risk patients, RTP worsened in-hospital outcome and influenced the risk of RMI after 24 *** trial numberThis research is a retrospective observational study, which does not require mandatory registration as defined by the ICMJE.

摘要： Very few of today's forums (both physical and virtual) are appreciative environments for generative discourse, complicating the efforts and recognition of "public intellectuals" who are interested in elevating discourse for the public good. Instead of expecting regulatory action from institutions to set standards of communication (top-down) or a cohort of public intellectuals to provide dialogical direction, there should be more of a focus on ensuring that the next generation will have skills instilled in them to reinforce these norms for themselves (bottom-up). The authors assert that we need not look very far in viewing educators as the ideal liaisons in carrying out this endeavor as they are already well-positioned to model critical thinking, expression, and engagement to an uninitiated population. John Dewey's learning process is offered as a helpful "roadmap" for educators committed to modeling constructive discourse under the tenets of "empathy, humility, and a willingness to learn" within their classrooms. Teachers willing to follow the example of one of the twentieth century's most influential educators and public intellectuals can now become the new vanguard of dialogical shepherds in the current millennium.

摘要： Intestinal gluconeogenesis refers to the ability of the gut to produce glucose outside of meals. By initiating a gut-brain neural axis, its activation by dietary fiber or protein improves the regulation of energy balance. Recently, the creation of a genetic activation model of intestinal gluconeogenesis has demonstrated its anti-obesity, anti-diabetes and anti-hepatic steatosis effects. Interestingly, it increases thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue, thereby promoting energy expenditure and contributing to the fight against obesity. Therefore, targeting intestinal gluconeogenesis could be an innovative strategy to address metabolic diseases such as hepatic steatosis and diabetes, paving the way to new therapeutic approaches.
