Links between self-monitoring data collected through smartphones and smartwatches and the individual disease trajectories of adult patients with depressive disorders: Study protoco... by Hanna Reich, Simon Schreynemackers, Rebeka Amin, Sascha Ludwig, Jil Zippelius, Johannes Leimhofer, Tobias Dunker, Elisabeth Schriewer, Angela Carell, Yvonne Weber, Ulrich Hegerl

“…Participants will (a) attend three in-person appointments (at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months), (b) self-report daily and weekly depressive symptoms, (c) continuously collect sensor data via the “iTrackDepression” app on their Android smartphone (app usage, phone calls, phonetic parameters from voice recordings), and (d) wear a Samsung Galaxy Watch 5® to record data from the accelerometer, step sensor, light sensor, and heart rate sensor. We will apply multilevel correlations, vector-autoregressive models, and Machine Learning approaches to identify individual patterns in the data, particularly in the relationships between biosensor data and self-reported depressive symptoms.Enhancing the understanding of individual disease trajectories through data from smartphones and smartwatches could allow for classical, digital, and self-management interventions for depression to be delivered in a manner and at a time specifically tailored to the individual's needs.Clinical trial registration number: DRKS00032618 (https://drks.de/search/en/trial/DRKS00032618)…”

An Unexplored Diversity for Adaptation of Germination to High Temperatures in Brassica Species by M. Tiret, M.‐H. Wagner, L. Gay, E. Chenel, A. Dupont, C. Falentin, L. Maillet, F. Gavory, K. Labadie, S. Ducournau, A.‐M. Chèvre

“…Our results show that both species exhibit heat tolerance to the temperature range tested, especially B. rapa, with an increase in speed and uniformity of germination time, as well as an increase in germination rate as temperature increased. As for B. oleracea accessions, the ability to germinate under heat conditions depended on the geographical origin; in particular, southern populations showed a higher germination rate than northern populations, possibly in relation to their warmer climates of origin. …”
