Resting metabolic rate and energetics of reproduction in lactating Eothenomys miletus from Hengduan mountain region [PDF]
Zoological Studies, 2014 It has been advocated that variation in resting metabolic rate (RMR) may affect the reproductive performance of female animals. In order to investigate the relationships between RMR and reproductive output in lactating Eothenomys miletus, body mass, RMR, food intake, litter size and mass, as well as the weight of visceral organs and gastrointestinal ...

Giardia duodenalis in Rodents: A Global Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.‐ Giardia duodenalis (also known as G. lamblia or G. intestinalis) is a globally distributed protozoan with zoonotic potential. ‐ This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to determine the global molecular prevalence and genotypic distribution of G. duodenalis in rodents, based exclusively on studies using molecular diagnostic techniques.

Effects of Exogenous Melatonin on Body Mass Regulation and Hormone Concentrations in Eothenomys miletus [PDF]
Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2013 By regulating the pineal hormone, photoperiods affect many physiological characteristics in small mammals. Thus, melatonin might take part in the thermoregulation of seasonal variations in small mammals.

Effects of random food deprivation on body mass, behavior and serum leptin levels inEothenomys miletus(Mammalia: Rodentia: Cricetidae) [PDF]
Italian Journal of Zoology, 2014 AbstractThe value of phenotypic plasticity in energy metabolism and behavioral patterns in response to variations of food availability was handled in adult male voles (Eothenomys miletus) acclimated to random food deprivation (FD) for 4 weeks. During this period, in which voles were fed ad libitum for a randomly assigned 3 days each week, changes in ...
