Malnutrition is a common sequel among patients affected by Crohn's disease (CD). The pathogenic mechanisms include poor dietary intake, increased resting energy expenditure (REE), nutrient malabsorption and loss. So far, few studies have been carried out in CD adult patients, assessing the effect of disease activity on both REE and body composition. Vaisman et al (2006) studied sixteen CD patients in remission (> 3 mo) and showed no effect of REE on lower BMI, although in the presence of similar energy intake in according with previous studies (Al-Jaouni et al., 2000; Schneeweiss et al., 1999). While, Gong et al., 2015 found that patients with active disease had an increase in REE compared to patients in remission as already shown by Rigaud et al., 1993; Kushner and Schoeller, 1991. Overall, the effect of disease activity on REE is still uncertain and requires further investigation. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect disease activity on resting energy expenditure (REE), body composition, inflammatory markers, food intake and quality of life in subjects affected by Crohn's Disease (CD)

To provide modellers with an emission dataset that is indicative of the possible future emissions in Europe under two different policy pathways we use two global emission scenarios developed by the EDGAR team in the CIRCE project (Doering et al., 2010). The selected scenarios are a business-as-usual (BAU) and a climate change (CC) scenario. The two CIRCE scenarios contain detailed information about the development of individual source sector categories. By coupling these scenarios to TNO-CAMS gridded CO2 data, the emission changes in each grid-cell and for each region can be estimated in a spatially explicit manner. The projections start from the latest historic year in the the TNO_CAMS-CO2 data set, being 2014. The emission data can be used for e.g. for sensitivity tests, for example when designing a possible future observational system. The years covered in the data set are 2018, 2020, 2023, 2028, 2030, 2033, 2050. This selection has been made to include the 5-year time steps fro the global stocktake in the Paris Agreement. The emission grid consists of UNECE-Europe in WGS84 projection (lon-lat) with a spatial resolution of 1/8 x 1/16 degrees (lon x lat). The lower left of the grid is at lon = -60, lat = 30 and the upper right is at lon = 60, lat = 72. The netcdf grid files (.nc) contain annual total emissions per grid cell for the years 2018, 2020, 2023, 2028, 2030, 2033, 2050. A separate file has been prepared for each year and each scenario (BAU or CC). The unit in the .nc files is kg/gridcell/yr Sectoral breakdown uses the SNAP classification. Compared to the default SNAP1 sectors (1 to 10), the following change was made: SNAP 3 and SNAP 4 are grouped as SNAP 34 SNAP 7 is split in SNAP 71 to 75 The dataset is described in Denier van der Gon, H.A.C., J.J.P. Kuenen, G. Janssens-Maenhout, U. Döring, S. Jonkers, A.J.H.

Analyses of ancient food webs reveal important paleoecological processes and responses to a range of perturbations throughout Earth’s history, such as climate change. These responses can inform our forecasts of future biotic responses to similar perturbations. However, previous analyses of ancient food webs rarely accounted for key differences between modern and ancient community data, particularly selective loss of soft-bodied taxa during fossilization. To consider how fossilization impacts inferences of ancient community structure we (1) analyzed node-level attributes to identify correlations between ecological roles and fossilization potential and (2) applied selective information loss procedures to food web data for extant systems. We found that selective loss of soft-bodied organisms has predictable effects on the trophic structure of “artificially fossilized” food webs, because these organisms occupy unique, consistent food web positions. Fossilized food webs misleadingly appear less stable (i.e., more prone to trophic cascades), with less predation and an overrepresentation of generalist consumers. We also found that ecological differences between soft- and hard-bodied taxa—indicated by distinct positions in modern food webs—are recorded in an Early Eocene web, but not in Cambrian webs. This suggests that ecological differences between the groups have existed for ≥ 48 million years. Our results indicate that accounting for soft-bodied taxa is vital for accurate depictions of ancient food webs. However, the consistency of information loss trends across the analyzed food webs means it is possible to predict how the selective loss of soft-bodied taxa affects food web metrics, which can permit better modeling of ancient communities.

Here we assessed the spatial and temporal changes in the taxonomic and functional composition of fish communities in European seas over the last 25 years (1994-2019). We then explored how these community changes were linked to environmental gradients and fishing pressure. We show that the spatial variation in fish species composition is more than two times higher than the temporal variation, with a marked spatial continuum in taxonomic composition and a more homogenous pattern in functional composition. The regions warming the fastest are experiencing an increasing dominance and total abundance of r-strategy fish species (lower age of maturity). Conversely, regions warming more slowly show an increasing dominance and total abundance of K-strategy species (high trophic level and late reproduction). Among the considered environmental variables, sea surface temperature, surface salinity, and chlorophyll-a most consistently influenced communities’ spatial patterns, while bottom temperature and oxygen had the most consistent influence on temporal patterns. Changes in communities’ functional composition were more closely related to environmental conditions than taxonomic changes. Our study demonstrates the importance of integrating community-level species traits across multi-decadal scales and across a large region to better capture and understand ecosystem-wide responses and provides a different lens on community dynamics that could be used to support sustainable fisheries management.

Background. Impaired cardiorespiratory fitness, which is a major risk factor in the development of cardiorespiratory diseases, is frequently reported in stroke patients. The mean energy cost of walking, i.e. the amount of oxygen consumption in milliliter per kilogram of body-weight per meter, in stroke patients is almost twice as high compared to healthy subjects (resp. 0.27 ml/kg/m vs. 0.15 ml/kg/m). In the rehabilitation of stroke patients, the primary aim is to improve kinematic and functional gait-related parameters. However, due to the previously mentioned cardiorespiratory risks, it is important to be aware of the energy consumption and cardiorespiratory load of stroke patients during gait rehabilitation. In the past, gait training was mainly fulfilled by treadmill training, overground training and/or more conventional therapies, but in recent years, the implementation of robot-assistance in gait rehabilitation is increasing. However, what the influence is of robot-assistance on the cardiorespiratory load and energy consumption, and therefore also what potentially negative and/or positive side effects are for the cardiorespiratory system, is less investigated and unclear. Up to now, short walking durations of robot-assisted gait (up to 7 minutes) seem less energy consuming and cardiorespiratory stressful than walking without robot-assistance. However, what the influences are of longer walking durations is not clear. In addition, it is also unclear why possible differences between robot-assisted gait and walking without robot-assistance might exist. One possible explanation might be that differences in spatiotemporal gait parameters are responsible for differences in energy consumption and cardiorespiratory load. Patient recruitment. Stroke patients in the Rehabilitation Centre St. Ursula (Herk-de-Stad, Belgium) will receive verbal and written information on the aims and interventions of the study. Eligible stroke patients, who agree to participate in the study, will be recruited. Signed informed consent will be obtained from all participants. Sample size. Sample size calculation is based on previous investigations indicating large effect sizes between the effect of robot-assisted gait compared to walking without robot-assistance on energy consumption and cardiorespiratory load (based on a systematic review submitted for peer-review). To detect a large effect size (f = 0.40) of robot-assisted gait compared to overground and treadmill gait on energy consumption, cardiorespiratory load and perceived fatigue, in a repeated measures within subjects design (3 walking conditions and 4 measurements), with a significance level of 5% and a power level of 80%, a sample size of 21 subjects is needed (G*Power 3.1 for Mac). Sample size is inflated up to 24 subjects, so each walking order will be performed the same number of times. Intervention. Patients will be tested in 3 single walking sessions each on a separate day: walking in the Lokomat with 60% guidance force, walking on a treadmill and walking overground. Within subjects, all walking conditions will be performed at the same comfortable walking speed (CWS), with the same amount of body-weight support (BWS) (if necessary) during a total duration of maximum 30 minutes. The CWS (with a maximum of 3.2 kmph corresponding to the maximum Lokomat speed) and the amount of BWS (if necessary) will be individually determined on a separate day before the start of the study. Walking tests will be terminated early when relative or absolute indications are presented as reported by the American Heart Association or when patients are unable to continue walking. Patients will be asked to not consume food, alcohol, caffeine or nicotine at least 3 hours prior to the intervention, and not to perform additional strenuous activities at least 12 hours prior to the interventions. Walking sessions will be controlled for time of day. Before the start of the study, demographic and clinical characteristics will be collected and the CWS and the amount of BWS (if necessary) will be determined in a 10 minute walking test. At the start of each walking condition, a chest-carrying gas analysis system with mouth mask (Metamax 3B, Cortex, Germany), a heart rate belt (Polar H7) and 2 wearable foot sensors (Physiolog, Gait Up, Switzerland) will be applied. Patients will be seated for 5 minutes during which resting values (energy consumption, cardiorespiratory parameters and perceived fatigue) will be registered. After a resting period of 5 minutes, patients will walk for 30 minutes during which energy consumption, cardiorespiratory parameters, perceived fatigue and spatiotemporal parameters will be monitored continuously. Perceived fatigue will be registered every minute. Average values at rest, the beginning, middle and end of the walking sessions will be calculated offline. Randomization and Concealment. Walking sessions will be performed in a random order at 3 separate days. An independent investigator will assign the 24 patients (in 2 series of 12) at random to one of the 6 possible walking orders using a random sequence generator. Allocation will be concealed for the investigators using an excel file with blind and locked sections, to which only the independent investigator has access to. The random walking order of the patient will therefore only be available when the patient has been recruited and his name is entered in the excel sheet. This method will assure that the investigator does not know the walking order of the next participant. Dropout. In case subjects drop out, the subject will be replaced by a new participant who will perform all three trials in the same randomized order as the subject that dropped out. So, in case of drop out, additional patients will be tested until the data of 24 patients that participated in all three conditions are collected. Statistical analysis. Statistics will be performed using SPSS (IBM, Chicago, IL). Descriptive statistics will be calculated for baseline demographic and clinical patient characteristics. Repeated measures analyses of variance (ANOVA) with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons will be used to analyze differences in primary and secondary outcomes within and between walking conditions. Regression analysis will be performed to evaluate whether (changes in) spatiotemporal parameters are predictive for (changes in) energy consumption. The significance level will be set at 5%. The primary objective of the study is to investigate the energy consumption, cardiorespiratory load and perceived exertion, and how these parameters change, during walking with robot-assistance compared to walking on a treadmill and walking overground in stroke patients. A secondary objective is to investigate whether these changes or differences in energy consumption, cardiorespiratory load and perceived exertion during walking with and without robot-assistance in stroke patients are related to changes or differences spatiotemporal gait characteristics.
