Abstract
Intra-Annual Density Fluctuations (IADFs) are an important wood functional trait that determine trees' ability to adapt to climatic changes. Here, we use a large tree-ring database of 11 species from 89 sites across eight European countries, covering a climatic gradient from the Mediterranean to northern Europe, to analyze how climate variations drive IADF formation. We found that IADF occurrence increases nonlinearly with ring width in both gymnosperms and angiosperms and decreases with altitude and age. Recently recorded higher mean annual temperatures facilitate the formation of IADFs in almost all the studied species. Precipitation plays a significant role in inducing IADFs in species that exhibit drought tolerance capability, and a growth pattern known as bimodal growth. Our findings suggest that species with bimodal growth patterns growing in western and southern Europe will form IADFs more frequently, as an adaptation to increasing temperatures and droughts.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Quantitative assessment of valve regurgitation using volumetric method by comparing right and left ventricular stroke volumes is still under investigations.
Aims
To investigate the accuracy of tomographic equilibrium radionuclide ventriculography (t-ERV) for the quantification of tricuspid regurgitation (TR).
Methods and results
Sixty-one patients (44 men; mean age 59±12 years) who underwent both t-ERV and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) studies within 2 weeks for right ventricular systolic function assessment were eligible for inclusion. A sub-group of 22 patients underwent both t-ERV and CMR. Patients with mitral/aortic regurgitation by TTE were excluded of the study. TR regurgitant volume (RVol) was calculated using the proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA) method from TTE and the volumetric method (right ventricular stroke volume minus left ventricular stroke volume) from t-ERV. RVol tended to be higher using the ERV volumetric method as compared to PISA method (43±35 and 35±33 ml, respectively; P<0.0001). There was a significant correlation between RVol as assess by ERV and by TTE (R=0.95, P<0.0001). Intraclass correlation coefficient between TTE and ERV for TR quantification was 0.95 (P<0.0001). Among patients who underwent CMR, the correlation between RVol obtained by TTE and by t-ERV and CMR were R=0.81 and R=0.75, respectively (all P<0.0001), without difference between the two correlations (P=0.263).

Conclusion
TR assessment using the t-ERV correlates well with PISA from TTE in patients referred for right ventricular systolic function assessment.

Abstract
We present a model of Z -ring constriction in bacteria based on different experimental in vitro results. The forces produced by the Z ring due to lateral attraction of its constituent parts, estimated in previous studies that were based on FtsZ filaments observed by atomic force microscopy, are in good agreement with an estimation of the force required for recently found deformations in liposomes caused by FtsZ. These forces are calculated within the usual Helfrich energy formalism. In this context, we also explain the apparent attraction of multiple Z rings in the liposomes initially separated by small distances, as well as the stable distribution of rings separated by distances greater than approximately twice the diameter of the cylindrical liposomes. We adapted the model to the in vivo conditions imposed by the bacterial cell wall, concluding that the proposed mechanism gives a qualitative explanation for the force generation during bacterial division.

Abstract
A mechanism of extraction of tubular membranes from a lipid vesicle is presented. A concentration gradient of anchoring amphiphilic polymers generates tubes from budlike vesicle protrusions. We explain this mechanism in the framework of the Canham-Helfrich model. The energy profile is analytically calculated and a tube with a fixed length, corresponding to an energy minimum, is obtained in a certain regime of parameters. Further, using a phase-field model, we corroborate these results numerically. We obtain the growth of tubes when a polymer source is added, and the budlike shape after removal of the polymer source, in accordance with recent experimental results.
