Prenatal Evaluation of RNU4‐2 Variants in Fetuses With Central Nervous System Anomalies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fetal central nervous system (CNS) anomalies are among the most common congenital malformations, yet the overall prenatal diagnostic yield of current genetic testing remains below 40%. Variants in RNU4‐2, a non‐coding gene encoding the U4 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), have recently been linked to a novel highly recurrent dominant ...

“If It Looks Like a Duck, Walks Like a Duck, and Quacks Like a Duck… It Must Be a Duck” [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2013
Patients with ischemic stroke and atrial fibrillation (AF) are treated with long-term oral anticoagulation (OAC) because it is considerably more effective than antiplatelet (AP) therapy for the prevention of subsequent strokes and systemic emboli. Therefore, detecting AF changes therapy and makes secondary prevention more effective.

Assessing breeding duck population trends relative to anthropogenic disturbances across the boreal plains of Canada, 1960-2007

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2020
Impacts of anthropogenic disturbance on duck populations in the boreal forest is largely unknown but hypothesized to negatively influence abundance through top-down and bottom-up processes.

Understanding the spacing of placodes in the eye: A comparative study across age and species

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The conjunctival placodes of the avian eye form in an intriguing and conserved sequence in a circular annulus around the cornea. These 13–16 placodes develop into papillae that are essential for inducing underlying intramembranous flat bones, known as scleral ossicles, which form an important part of the ocular skeleton.

Dual Functions of Dietary Rubber Seed Oil Supplementation: Enriching N‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Enhancing Antioxidant Capacity in Pekin Ducks

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.

Camera traps offer reliable estimates compared to ground surveys for monitoring duck pairs and broods

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin
Monitoring breeding waterfowl populations with ground‐based pair and brood surveys informs management and conservation decisions. However, surveys are often limited temporally and may miss individuals that are not present or available for detection at ...

Species Abundance Modelling of Arctic-Boreal Zone Ducks Informed by Satellite Remote Sensing

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The Arctic-Boreal zone (ABZ) covers over 26 million km2 and is home to numerous duck species; however, understanding the spatiotemporal distribution of their populations across this vast landscape is challenging, in part due to extent and data scarcity ...

The history and importance of private lands for North American waterfowl conservation

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2019
Waterfowl conservation in North America provides an example of an abundant wildlife resource that was driven to alarmingly low levels as a result of unregulated exploitation of its populations and habitats, but which has since recovered because of ...

Chicken Pulmonary MicroRNAs Targeting the PB2 (Segment 1) of Avian Influenza Virus

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The PB2 segment of H5N1 is essential for replication and host adaptation. We screened 200 miRNAs and identified five (gga‐miR‐17‐3p, gga‐miR‐29a‐5p, gga‐miR‐1718, gga‐miR‐16c‐5p, and gga‐miR‐1744‐5p) using thermodynamic stability of heteroduplex, seed sequence complementarity, conservation, and accessibility, offering insights into host antiviral ...
