Disentangling the biotic and abiotic drivers of bird-building collisions in a tropical Asian city with ecological niche modeling
Conserv Biol. 2024 Mar 15:e14255. doi: 10.1111/cobi.14255. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBird collisions with buildings are responsible for a large number of bird deaths in cities around the world, yet they remain poorly studied outside North America. We conducted one of the first citywide fine-scale and landscape-scale analyses of bird-building collisions in Asia and used maximum entropy modeling (as commonly applied to species distribution modeling) in a novel way to assess the drivers of bird-building collisions in the tropical city-state of Singapore. We combined 7 years of community science observations with publicly ...

IJERPH, Vol. 21, Pages 347: Flourishing or Frightening? Feelings about Natural and Built Green Spaces in Singapore
We examined which types of green spaces elicited positive (eudemonic) or negative (apprehensive) affective responses. A total of 288 adult residents of Singapore completed a survey that asked them to report their affective states in response to images of 10 locally different environment types and to complete measures of childhood location, frequency of visiting natural/built environments, nature connectedness, and dispositional anxiety, as well as demographic items on age and gender. The 10 green space environment types were mapped onto an experiential state space representing feelings of apprehension and eudemonia in resp...

Diagnostic threshold and performance of anion gap in screening for high anion gap metabolic acidosis
CONCLUSION: The recommended AG threshold value is ≥15 mEq/L with a high sensitivity for HAGMA. The AG should always be interpreted with the clinical context, and it should be repeated as the clinical picture evolves.PMID:38478728 | DOI:10.4103/singaporemedj.SMJ-2023-009 (Source: Singapore Medical Journal)
