We estimated species richness, delineated potential distribution, and identified areas of priority for research/conservation efforts. Our estimates indicate that up to 75% of NW Helicopsychidae species remain undescribed, with a notable Linnean shortfall at the subgenus level: approximately 50% of H. (Cochliopsyche) species and up to 77% of H. (Feropsyche) species are yet to be described. Knowledge of semaphoronts is also limited, with immature stages documented for only 15% of H. (Feropsyche) species and 6% of H. (Cochliopsyche). Distributional records are concentrated in the Brazilian subregion (between 0°-24°S), and most species have a short environmental distribution gradient. Based on currently known, priority conservation areas are in the Antilles and the Tropical Forest. For H. (Feropsyche), priority areas include low-altitude and coastal regions with low-order streams, whereas H. (Cochliopsyche) conservation priorities lie in the large river basins, especially in the Amazon and Atlantic Forests. Future research efforts should focus on H. (Feropsyche) in the Chaco and high-altitude areas of the Atlantic Forest, Cerrado, and Caatinga domains, as well as on H. (Cochliopsyche) across South America's high order river (e.g., Amazon, Orinoco, Paraná, and São Francisco Rivers). Here, highlights recent advances in the taxonomy and distribution cataloguing of NW Helicopsychidae, despite significant progress, marjory of species remain undescribed, emphasizing the need for continued research. Although well-sampled regions like the Antilles, south Central America, Amazon coastal areas, and Central Atlantic Forest Ecological Corridor should be prioritized for conservation, vast areas such as the Amazon lowlands, northeast and southwest Atlantic Forest, and transition areas of Atlantic Forest and Dry Diagonal remain underexplored. To the best of our knowledge, this study represents one of first empirical analysis of environmental gradients for Trichoptera species.

Correlation analyses further reveal that increasingly negative Dst values, enhanced solar wind velocity, and higher alpha/proton ratios align with greater numbers of outages attributed to unknown causes, underscoring the pivotal role of solar wind-magnetosphere coupling. A simple regression model confirms that storm intensity and average magnetic field strength are statistically significant predictors of unexplained outages, more so than broad indicators such as sunspot number alone.

Mutations in the BMPR2 signaling pathway are associated with the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension. Previous pre-clinical studies demonstrated that exogenous administration of recombinant human wild type BMP9 (WT BMP9) enhances BMPR2/ALK1 mediated signaling and reverses experimental pulmonary hypertension in rat models. However, BMP9 induces osteogenic activity in progenitor cells through activation of ActR2A and ActR2B receptor complexes potentially leading to unwanted bone formation in non-osteogenic tissues. The cellular activity of human WT BMP9 and amino acid substitution variants was characterized in vitro in terms of BMPR2 and ActR2 signaling. We identified a mutant variant of human BMP9 that maintains its activity in endothelial cells, specifically preserving BMPR2 signaling while eliminating osteogenic signaling associated with ActR2A/B activation in mesenchymal precursor cells. Rat models of pulmonary hypertension served as in vivo models to characterize efficacy and safety of BMP9 supplementation therapy. While WT BMP9 effectively activates BMPR2 signaling across species in rat, cynomolgus monkey and human systems, our human BMP9 mutant variant is inactive on rat BMPR2/ALK1 receptor complexes. Therefore, WT BMP9 was used to examine disease reversal in the preclinical monocrotaline model rat of pulmonary hypertension. WT BMP9 failed to improve right ventricular systolic pressure or right ventricular hypertrophy, despite clear target engagement shown by upregulation of SMAD7. Telemetry studies of WT BMP9 in the Sugen 5416 and hypoxia rat model of pulmonary hypertension indicated no significant change in pulmonary pressure but led to increased systemic blood pressure and decreased heart rate. Additionally, escalating doses in naive rats caused severe dose-limiting effects and morbidity at 500 µg/kg/day or higher. Given these findings including the absence of therapeutic efficacy in a relevant PAH animal model and dose limiting toxicity in rats, a therapeutic window for BMP9 treatment could not be established.</p>","PeriodicalId":20189,"journal":{"name":"PLoS ONE","volume":"20 7","pages":"e0329089"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144732814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research introduces an innovative approach by combining advanced DR techniques with a robust energy management strategy designed for uncertain conditions, enhanced by sensitivity analysis to key system parameters. The article considers a network with distributed generating resources, including wind turbines, microturbines, photovoltaics, energy storage systems (ESS), and diesel generators, where generation is controlled hourly based on load fluctuations. Energy consumption optimization requires not only distributed energy generation but also DR to variations in demand, ensuring system reliability under diverse scenarios. Consumers play a crucial role in optimizing energy usage through incentive-based participation. To achieve the research goal of reducing generation and purchasing costs in power grids through optimal energy management and DR to fluctuations, a stochastic approach is employed to obtain the best outcomes. This paper proposes a novel method for optimizing energy consumption in power networks by integrating stochastic techniques to manage uncertainties and variable conditions.

The Movement Oriented Games Based Assessment (MOGBA) is an intervention designed to improve children's complex movement skills, based on principles of motor development and assessment theories. There is a positive relationship between children's movement competence and physical activity (PA), with a further relationship established between PA and childhood obesity. This study aimed to assess how using MOGBA in PE lessons might impact primary children's movement competence, PA, muscular fitness and self-perceptions of game and physical competence. A cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted involving 229 children (51% girls) from nine different schools located in the north of England. The average age of participants was 9.1 years (SD = 0.21). Participants were randomized at the school level into either the MOGBA intervention group (n = 128 students) or a wait-list control group (n = 101). The MOGBA intervention was delivered over nine weeks during PE lessons by trained deliverers. The main components of the intervention included the implementation of 14 games-based activities, which were designed to support assessment within PE lessons and enhance children's movement competence. The game-based cards also provided guidance on how to tailor activities to meet the children's individual needs by manipulating space, effort and relationships. Pre-Post test design was employed, with participants being assessed at baseline and within 7 days post intervention. The assessment included measures of movement competence (Dragon Challenge), in-class PA (accelerometer), muscular fitness (standing long jump and plank), and perceived game and self competence (Game Play Perception Profile and Perceived Competence and Social Acceptance for Young Children). Findings show that MOGBA had a positive effect on the primary outcome of movement competence (ES: 0.18; 95%CI: -0.02, 0.38; p = 0.071) and a significant positive outcome (ES: 0.30; 95%CI: 0.04, 0.56; p = 0.025) on the way that students perceived their ability in game play. An impact was not observed on in-class PA and muscular fitness. These findings are significant as we know that increased movement competence and game self-perceptions mean children are more likely to engage with future movement, sport and physical activity opportunities. This could positively influence lifelong PA levels and promote better health. Further work should involve teachers and coaches using MOGBA to support children's movement competence in the hopes of supporting their involvement in sport and PA.
