IL‐31 levels correlate with pruritus in patients with cholestatic and metabolic liver diseases and is farnesoid X receptor responsive in NASH

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
IL‐31 levels correlate with pruritus in patients with cholestatic and metabolic liver diseases Abstract Background and Aims Pruritus is associated with multiple liver diseases, particularly those with cholestasis, but the mechanism remains incompletely understood.

A biomimetic ducted nipple reveals gestational age‐dependent deficits in suction generation in a neonatal pig model

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract All infant mammals must suckle in order to effectively acquire milk from a nipple. Yet, not all infants are able to do so. Preterm infants in particular face significant feeding challenges, often failing to establish successful breastfeeding due to complex neurophysiologic challenges.

Body mass and sex estimation from lower carnassial tooth morphometry in the endangered Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus): An ecomorphological analysis of sexual size dimorphism

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus) is an endangered subspecies characterized by highly fragmented populations and increasing human–carnivore conflict across the Iberian Peninsula. Although body mass strongly influences predator–prey dynamics and ecological performance, quantitative assessments of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) and body mass

Epidemiology and control of canine leishmaniasis in Peru and Brazil [PDF]

The aims of the work presented in this thesis were two-fold: [i) to investigate whether domestic dogs are important reservoir hosts of ACL in a L. [Viannia]-endemic area where domestic transmission to humans has been reported [Part 1]; and [ii] to ...

Regional variability in skull sexual dimorphism: Olive baboons, blue monkeys, and vervets confirm the posterior region of the skull and the snout as opposite extremes of sex differences in Old World monkeys

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study, alongside prior work on crab‐eating macaques with O'Higgins, investigates regional variation in skull sexual dimorphism across different species of Old World monkeys. Findings reveal consistent patterns: the posterior skull regions (mandibular vertical ramus, chondrocranium and, possibly, the cranial vault) exhibit lower dimorphism,

Discovery of a novel pathway for an SLE-related disease complex in the canine breed Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever [PDF]

, 2013
The dog is an excellent model to study inherited complex diseases, due to its unique population history and haplotype structure. In this thesis, dogs from the breed Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever (NSDTR) have been used as a model for defining the ...

A data driven approach for soft tissue biomarker identification linked to Chiari-like malformation and syringomyelia

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Canine Chiari-like malformation (CM) is a neuroanatomical condition associated with conformational change of the cranium, craniocervical junction and neuroparenchyma, resulting in pain (Chiari associated pain or CM-P) and the development of syringomyelia

Redescription of †Eobrasilia coutoi (Metatheria: Polydolopimorphia), a unique sclerocarpophagous metatherian from the Palaeogene of South America: Systematic affinities, and paleoecological and evolutionary implications

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The ‘Palaeogene strata’ of the Itaboraí Basin (upper Paleocene‐lower Eocene), Southeastern Brazil, has preserved 29 genera and almost 50 species of metatherians (about 65% of its mammalian diversity). Among them, Eobrasilia coutoi Simpson, 1947 is the most enigmatic due to its quite fragmentary nature.

Taxonomic and anatomical comments on “Traversodon(?) major” von Huene, 1936 (Cynodontia) from the Middle Triassic of Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Traversodontids were diverse non‐mammaliaform cynodonts that occupied herbivorous and omnivorous niches during the Middle and Late Triassic. In Brazil, they are particularly well represented in the Santa Maria Supersequence, although the taxonomic status of some historically described taxa remains uncertain.
