Peer review is an important part of the scientific process, but traditional peer at journals coming under increased scrutiny for its inefficiency and lack transparency. As preprints become more widely used accepted, they raise possibility rethinking peer-review process. Preprints are enabling new forms that have potential to be thorough, inclusive, collegial than journal review, thus fundamentally shift culture toward constructive collaboration. In this Consensus View, we make a call action...
In Sweden, there is a growing trend for Sámi reindeer herding districts and developers to enter into negotiated agreements on projects that aim exploit land natural resources. These can be viewed as way the involved parties fill gap in state regulation of environmental licensing use planning; specifically inability address property rights (known rights). Research conducted other countries has demonstrated such private potentially play role integrating Indigenous perspectives resource...
Preprints enable new forms of peer review that have the potential to be more thorough, inclusive, and collegial. In December 2022, 80 researchers representatives funders, institutions, preprint servers, journals, indexers, services were invited gather online at Janelia Research Campus for a workshop on Recognizing Preprint Peer Review. Sponsored by HHMI, ASAPbio, EMBO, this meeting aimed catalyze community consensus support create model funder, institutional, journal policies recognize both...
Bibliographic databases should support innovation and experimentation. Here, we offer four criteria for innovation-friendly bibliographic databases. We urge the global research community to use that do not hinder in scholarly communication assessment.
The Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing molecule N‐(3‐oxododecanoyl)‐ L ‐homoserine lactone (OdDHL) has been shown to suppress cytokine production in macrophages. We have examined the effect of OdDHL and related compounds on constrictor tone porcine blood vessels. (1–30 μ M ) caused a concentration‐dependent inhibition U46619‐induced contractions coronary artery through largely endothelium‐independent mechanism, but was markedly less effective pulmonary artery. Quantitively similar effects...
Monocytes obtained from patients with Behçet's disease (BD) were examined for differentiation markers (expression of CD14 and antigens reacting monoclonal antibodies 25F9 G16/1) expression selected adhesion molecules. There was significantly raised the molecule, increased staining G16/1 in monocytes BD. A monocyte activation marker, soluble CD 14, also found to be patients' serum compared normal (8.1 ± 9.2 vs 1.4 0.7 μg/ml). Furthermore, BD culture supernatants caused neutrophils endothelial...
<ns4:p>The way science and research is done rapidly becoming more open collaborative. The traditional of publishing new findings in journals increasingly outdated no longer serves the needs much science. Whilst preprints can bring significant benefits removing delay selection, they do not go far enough if simply implemented alongside existing journal system. We propose that we need a approach, an Open Science Platform, takes but adds formal, invited, transparent post-publication peer review....

Pharmacists in Nova Scotia have had legislated authority to prescribe since 2011. This study aimed describe the prescribing activities of pharmacists and characteristics patients who used pharmacist services.
ABSTRACT Career progression for scientists involves an assessment of their contribution to field and a prediction future potential. Traditional measures, such as the impact factor journal that researcher publishes in, may not be appropriate or accurate means assessing overall output individual. The development altmetrics offers potential fuller assessments researcher's based on both traditional non‐traditional scholarly outputs. New tools should make it easier include outputs data, software...
Key points Peer review is used to evaluate research, including publications, scientific awards, and grant proposals, there a continuum of at least six approaches from completely closed, double‐blind fully‐open citable peer review. It getting harder find suitable experts serve as reviewers so publishers others are experimenting with methods incentivize researcher participation, growing interest in enabling citation peer‐review activity component. A Working Group on Review Service, facilitated...
This document summarises guidelines produced by the UK Jisc-funded PREPARDE data publication project on key issues of repository accreditation. It aims to lay out principles and requirements for repositories intent providing a dataset as part research record publication. The that accreditation may support are rapidly changing, hence this paper is intended provocation further discussion development in future.
The Peer REview for Publication and Accreditation of Research Data in the Earth sciences (PREPARDE) project is a JISC NERC funded which aims to investigate policies procedures required formal publication research data, ranging from ingestion into data repository, through journal. It also addresses key issues arising paradigm, including, but not limited to, related how one peer reviews dataset, what criteria are needed repository be considered objectively trustworthy, datasets journal...
Key points Publishers increasingly acknowledge the need for better recognition of peer review activities and are experimenting with ways to achieve this. A recent community working group recommended a set data exchange standards support this recognition, these have now been implemented by Open Researcher Contributor ID. The American Geophysical Union F1000 first adopters new functionality.
The pig is increasingly being used in medical research, both as a model of the human cardiovascular system, and possible source organs for xenotransplantation. However, little known about comparative functions vascular endothelium between porcine arteries. We have therefore compared effects two endothelium‐dependent vasorelaxants, acetylcholine (ACh) Ca 2+ ‐ATPase inhibitor, cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) on isolated pulmonary artery using isometric tension recording. ACh CPA produced relaxations...
