From Chew Counts to Intake Amounts: An Evaluation of Acoustic Sensing in Browsing Goats
SensorsHerbage intake by grazers and browsers is of fundamental importance to agricultural ecosystems worldwide but is also notoriously difficult to quantify. The intake process is mediated by herbage comminution in the mouth.

Synthetic glycovaccine protects against the bite of leishmania-infected sand flies
, 2006 Leishmaniasis is a vectorborne disease transmitted to human and other mammalian hosts by sand fly bite. In the present study, we show that immunization with Leishmania mexicana promastigote secretory gel (PSG) or with a chemically defined synthetic ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Assessing bite force estimates in extinct mammals and archosaurs using phylogenetic predictions
, 2021 Bite force is an ecologically important biomechanical performance measure that is informative in inferring the ecology of extinct taxa. However, biomechanical modelling to estimate bite force is associated with some level of uncertainty.

Bite count rates in free-living individuals: new insights from a portable sensor
BMC Nutrition, 2018 Background Conclusions regarding bite count rates and body mass index (BMI) in free-living populations have primarily relied on self-report. The objective of this exploratory study was to compare the relationship between BMI and bite counts measured by a

Thrombocytopenia Developing After Centipede Bite [PDF]
, 2022 Centipede bites have been reported rarely in humans. The mechanism of centipede toxin is not fully understood. Skin reactions develop more in centipede bites. In this text, we will present a case that developed thrombocytopenia after a centipede bite. An

Tumour‐proximal deep serum proteomics identifies biomarkers associated with ovarian cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.New biomarkers are needed for early ovarian cancer detection. Ovarian (tumour‐proximal) and peripheral vein serum from healthy women and patients with benign or malignant tumours underwent nanoparticle‐enriched deep proteomics. Ovarian serum yielded more protein identifications and revealed tumour‐reflective signatures.

Evaluation of occlusal forces in different stages of children - An exploratory study
Saudi Journal of Oral Sciences, 2018 Introduction: Bite force is one of the indicators of the functional state of mastication and loading of teeth. Bite force measurement is a reliable method of assessing the biomechanical properties of the masticatory system.
