Emaciated enigma: Decline in body conditions of common dolphins in the Celtic Seas ecoregion

Ecology and Evolution
Monitoring the nutritional health of cetaceans has become increasingly important in a changing environment, where multiple stressors impact animals. Particularly for those species that require consumption of energy‐dense prey, such as the common dolphin.

Changes in the Pterygopalatine and Midpalatal Sutures After Rapid Palatal Expansion With Tooth‐Bone‐Borne (MARPE) and Tooth‐Borne (Hyrax) Appliances

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This retrospective cohort study aimed to compare the effects of tooth‐bone‐borne mini‐implant‐assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) and tooth‐borne (Hyrax) rapid palatal expansion (RPE) techniques on the pterygopalatine suture (PPS) and the opening pattern of the midpalatal suture (MPS).

Three‐Dimensional Effects of Two Minimally Invasive Surgically Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion Techniques

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluated, in three dimensions, the skeletal effects of two minimally invasive bone‐anchored techniques for surgically assisted palatal expansion, with and without pterygomaxillary disjunction (PD) and nasal septum disinsertion (NSD). Materials and Methods Thirty‐nine patients were retrospectively selected from two centres

Sensing Frames: A Contribution to Sensory Pluralism

Sociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Are expressions like “sense of responsibility,” “sense of community,” and “business acumen” merely metaphors, or do they refer to deeper, socially embedded forms of perception? This article introduces the concept of “sensing frames”: the socially learned, culturally shaped, and pragmatically enacted modalities through which people perceive and

Toxoplasma gondii in cetaceans of Brazil: a histopathological and immunohistochemical survey

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária
Toxoplasmosis is a parasitic disease caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii. In cetaceans, T. gondii infection is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Despite the worldwide range and broad cetacean host record of T.

Galvanic vestibular stimulation reveals disruption of ipsilesional brainstem pathways in hemiparetic stroke survivors

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The spatiotemporal structure of muscle coordination emerges from the collaboration and competition among cortical, brainstem and spinal pathways onto motor neuron pools, each continuously shaped by task demands, limb position and descending tract integrity.

Arterial–venous differences of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor isoforms across the brain and muscle after exercise at different intensities

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Exercise‐induced increases in forearm venous plasma and serum brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) are often assumed to be indicative of release from the brain. Sixteen healthy and physically fit adults (20–40 years old) were recruited to investigate whether exercise‐induced changes in forearm venous mature BDNF (mBDNF) and ...
