- High temperatures enhance the strength of multiple predator effects in a typical crab-clam system. [Journal Article]Mar Pollut Bull. 2023 Feb 04; 188:114670.MP
- Although marine heatwaves pose urgent threats to marine life, our understanding of how these events influence interactions between key species in marine ecosystems is still inadequate. Herein, we examined the behavioral mechanisms by which heat regulates multiple predator effects in different foraging systems that include Asian paddle crabs (Charybdis japonica) and swimming crabs (Portunus tritub…

- Behavioural and cognitive-behavioural interventions for outwardly directed aggressive behaviour in people with intellectual disabilities. [Review]Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2023 Feb 06; 2:CD003406.CD
- CONCLUSIONS: There is moderate-certainty evidence that cognitive-behavioural approaches such as anger management and PBS may reduce outwardly directed aggressive behaviour in the short term but there is less certainty about the evidence in the medium and long term, particularly in relation to other outcomes such as quality of life. There is some evidence to suggest that combining more than one intervention may have cumulative benefits. Most studies were small and there is a need for larger, robust randomised controlled trials, particularly for interventions where the certainty of evidence is very low. More trials are needed that focus on children and whether psychological interventions lead to reductions in the use of psychotropic medications.

- Aggressive Incidents by Incarcerated People With Psychiatric Illness and Their Relationship With Psychiatric Symptoms. [Journal Article]J Forensic Nurs. 2023 Feb 04 [Online ahead of print]JF
- CONCLUSIONS: Symptoms of SMI measured with the BPRS-E did not help to explain the occurrence of aggressive behavior. This is not in line with what is commonly found. The implication is that it can be expected that this population will display aggressive behavior but that symptoms do not help in predicting when this will occur. In addition, hostility and antisocial traits were related to aggressive behavior. For this specific population, an interactional approach might be more effective in the management of aggression than treatment of symptoms of SMI.

- New thoughts and findings on invasion and metastasis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) from comparative proteomics: multi-target therapy. [Review]Clin Transl Oncol. 2023 Feb 06 [Online ahead of print]CT
- As one of the most aggressive malignant tumors, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) ranks as the fourth cancer-related mortality in the world. The extremely low survival rate is closely related to early invasion and distant metastasis. However, effective target therapy for weakening its malignant behavior remains limited. Over the past decades, many proteins correlating with invasion and meta…

- Melanoma is a highly aggressive cancer endowed with a unique capacity of rapidly metastasizing, which is fundamentally driven by aberrant cell motility behaviors. Discovering "migrastatics" targets, specifically controlling invasion and dissemination of melanoma cells during metastasis, is therefore of primary importance. Here, we uncover the prominent expression of the plasma membrane TRPV2 calc…

- Motivational and myopic mechanisms underlying dopamine medication-induced impulsive-compulsive behaviors in Parkinson's disease. [Journal Article]Front Behav Neurosci. 2022; 16:949406.FB

Previous findings highlighted potentially exacerbated incentive motivation (willingness to work for rewards) and choice impulsivity (preferring smaller, immediate rewards over larger, delayed rewards) in PD p…

This study is helpful to demonstrate the protective effect of cognitive reappraisal and reveal the internal mechanism of childhood psychological abuse on relational aggression.
