Vasculitis associated with Ehrlichia canis and Babesia canis in a dog in the Netherlands

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract This report describes a case of severe, sudden‐onset, widespread vasculitis affecting a dog concurrently infected by Ehrlichia canis and Babesia canis. Following diagnostic investigations, the dog was suspected of an immune‐mediated vasculitis, possibly triggered by E. canis, B. canis or their combination. The lesions completely resolved after

Citizen science project on urban canids provides different results from camera traps but generates interest and revenue

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As urbanization increases, wildlife increasingly encounters people. Coyotes Canis latrans and red foxes Vulpes vulpes are two canid species that have readily adapted to urban environments. Citizen science has emerged as a low‐cost method of collecting data on urban‐adapted species that can benefit management agencies but may provide different results ...

Sweat the small stuff: A review of the use of accelerometers to estimate energy expenditure in wild animals

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The growing use of accelerometry by ecologists to measure energy expenditure can make physiologists sweat due to its many pitfalls. This review comprehensively describes the use of accelerometry in wild animals, the successes (and failures) of calibrations and how best to estimate energy expenditure from accelerometers.

Inheriting Versus Developing Data Analytic Tests and Auditors’ Professional Skepticism

open access: yesJournal of Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the use of audit data analytic tests (ADA) becomes increasingly established in practice, auditors will often confront situations in which they inherit ADA developed by others, as opposed to developing the ADA themselves. Despite the potential benefits of ADA, inheriting ADA could decrease auditors’ skeptical actions by diminishing their ...

Riding attention spikes: How analysts respond to advertising

open access: yesContemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Product market advertising, while containing little new information, triggers spikes in investor attention. Using weekly advertising data, we find that sell‐side analysts issue optimistic earnings forecasts in response to heavier advertising in the prior week. This effect is not driven by confounding earnings or product news.

Peering into the world of wild passerines with 3D‐SOCS: Synchronized video capture and posture estimation

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Collection of large behavioural data‐sets on wild animals in natural habitats is vital in ecology and evolution studies. Recent progress in machine learning and computer vision, combined with inexpensive microcomputers, has unlocked a new frontier of fine‐scale markerless measurements.

Telomerase Depletion Accelerates Ageing of the Zebrafish Brain

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
Telomerase depletion accelerates markers of ageing in the zebrafish brain, ranging from dysregulated immune and stress ageing transcriptomic hallmarks to in situ accumulation of senescence‐associated markers and inflammation, dysfunction of the blood–brain barrier and increased anxiety behaviour.

Estimated seroprevalence of Ehrlichia canis in dogs in a remote community in the Northern Territory, Australia

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Background The emergence of Ehrlichia canis in northern Australia in 2020 has reshaped the landscape of tick‐borne diseases in dogs, particularly in rural and remote communities where the brown dog tick (Rhipicephalus linnaei) is endemic. Despite the rapid spread of ehrlichiosis and reported impacts on dog health, its prevalence remains poorly ...
