Dorsal Crypsis and Chemical Defense Jointly Shape Brain Size in Toads

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that total brain size and dorsal crypsis under both ultraviolet‐sensitive (UVS) and violet‐sensitive (VS) tetrachromatic bird visual models were negatively associated across eight species of toads. Our findings suggest that when species reduce predation risk by evolving increased dorsal crypsis, they may exhibit decreased brain size due to ...

Climate Change and Dispersal Limitation Reshape Future Habitat Accessibility for Lady Amherst's Pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae) in China

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We combined occurrence records across China with multisource environmental variables using ensemble species distribution modeling, optimal‐parameter geographical detector analysis, and dispersal simulations to estimate future habitat accessibility for Lady Amherst's Pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae). ABSTRACT Montane forest birds are highly vulnerable

After the Fire, Hope Springs Eternal: Movements and Body Condition of Hermann's Tortoises in a Devastated Landscape

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Rapid assessment of the delayed impacts of fires on endangered species is essential for accurately guiding conservation efforts. After the fire, surviving Hermann's tortoises (Testudo hermanni) showed only minor behavior alterations, and burnt habitats continued to provide them with essential resources.

Sleep Disorders in Klinefelter Syndrome and Other Sex Chromosome Aneuploidies: A Narrative Review

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sex chromosome aneuploidies (SCAs) are among the most frequent types of chromosomal aneuploidies and include Klinefelter syndrome (47,XXY and higher‐grade variants), 47,XYY syndrome, Turner syndrome (45,X), and trisomy X (47,XXX).

Long‐Term Effects of Kangaroo Mother Care on Neuromotor Development in Adults Born Preterm: A Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Study

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To assess long‐term effects of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) on motor development in adults born with birth weights ≤ 1800 g, compared to conventional neonatal care. Methods This cohort analysis included 214 young adults with a history of birth weights ≤ 1800 g, mostly preterm, originally enrolled in a randomized controlled trial between 1993

Effects of Immediate Skin‐to‐Skin Contact in Preterm Infants in High‐Resource Settings: A Systematic Review

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim A landmark trial published in 2021 demonstrated a 25% reduction in neonatal mortality when comparing immediate skin‐to‐skin contact (iSSC) to conventional care in infants with birthweight 1–1.8 kg in low‐ and middle‐resource settings.

Tongue and Glottis Morphology of Cathartes aura and the Secret of Its Functional Adaptation

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cathartes aura, commonly known as the Turkey vulture, is a scavenger bird belonging to the family Cathartidae that is widely distributed throughout the Americas and classified as a New World vulture. Its diet primarily consists of small‐sized carcasses, predominantly of wild animals.

Therapeutic access points: The roles of circumventricular organs in drug delivery and metabolic regulation

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The current obesity drug landscape, dominated by GLP‐1 receptor agonists and emerging multi‐agonist therapies, has reinforced that long‐term weight loss is achieved in large part through central mechanisms that suppress appetite and reshape energy balance.

Forest thinning creates short‐term roosting opportunities for northern long‐eared bats in central hardwood forests

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Reconciling timber production with the habitat requirements of forest‐dependent wildlife is a challenge for biodiversity conservation. In managed Central Hardwood Forests of the United States, female northern long‐eared bats (Myotis septentrionalis) selected tree roosts near ridgetops and management features, including recently created regeneration ...
