The Anatomical Record, Volume 306, Issue 12, Page 3214-3228, December 2023., 2023 Abstract The effectiveness and safety of electroacupuncture (EA) for constipation have been confirmed by numerous clinical studies and experiments, and there are also studies on the efficacy of EA for Parkinson's disease (PD) motor symptoms. However, there are few researches on EA for PD constipation.

Red‐list status and extinction risk of the world's whales, dolphins, and porpoises
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023 Abstract To understand the scope and scale of the loss of biodiversity, tools are required that can be applied in a standardized manner to all species globally, spanning realms from land to the open ocean. We used data from the International Union for the Conservation of Nature Red List to provide a synthesis of the conservation status and extinction ...

Use of carrion fly iDNA metabarcoding to monitor invasive and native mammals
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023 Abstract Severely fragmented habitats increase the risk of extirpation of native mammal populations through isolation, increased edge effects, and predation. Therefore, monitoring the movement of mammal populations through anthropogenically altered landscapes can inform conservation. We used metabarcoding of invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) from carrion

A review to the methods of personality measurements in wild animals 野生动物个性测量方法的综述
Wildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 131-142, September 2023., 2023 One of the challenges in animal personality study is finding a suitable method to measure personality. Here, we outlined three methods (traits rating, behavioral coding, and experimentation) used in animal personality measurement. We found that traits rating was commonly used to test large‐sized animals (e.g., primates), behavioral coding was conducted

Wildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 71-78, June 2023., 2023 Oaks are often removed as part of longleaf pine restoration; however, it is unclear if oak patches produce important resources for native wildlife. We studied wildlife use of the transition between longleaf pine woodlands and hardwood hammocks. We found these areas support a variety of wildlife species and future management and restoration of longleaf ...

Modeling total predation to avoid perverse outcomes from cat control in a data‐poor island ecosystem
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022 Abstract Data‐hungry, complex ecosystem models are often used to predict the consequences of threatened species management, including perverse outcomes. Unfortunately, this approach is impractical in the many systems that have insufficient data to parameterize ecosystem interactions or reliably calibrate or validate such models.

Foreign Language Annals, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 1082-1106, Winter 2021., 2021 Abstract This study examined how a dialogic reading (DR) program with a component of multisensory learning (MS) of Chinese characters improved early Chinese reading and writing skills in L2 Chinese‐speaking kindergarteners in Hong Kong. The DR + MS program was compared to the same DR program but focusing on morphological awareness (MA) training.

Complexity, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Majority of Chinese characters are pictographic characters with strong associative ability and when a character appears for Chinese readers, they usually associate with the objects, or actions related to the character immediately. Having this background, we propose a system to visualize the simplified Chinese characters, so that developing any skills ...
