High‐Starch Diet Prepartum Enhances IgG Concentration in Goat Colostrum Without Affecting the Transfer of Passive Immunity

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study hypothesises that a high‐starch (HS) diet during the last month of gestation enhances colostrum yield and composition as well as the dam and goat kid metabolism, immune status and performance. Thirty multiparous and pregnant Majorera dairy goats were randomly assigned to a prepartum dietary treatment (CON vs.

Remembering Independence, Debating the Nation: Ghana's National Days

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Ghana, Independence Day is the most important national day and has been annually observed since the attainment of independence in 1957. Additional national days that various military governments introduced to commemorate their ascension to power have been rather short‐lived. Other holidays like Republic Day or Founder's Day have been longer

TEAM‐UP: Mixed‐Methods Data for Understanding Traditional and Modern Contraceptive Use Dynamics in Four Sub‐Saharan African Countries

open access: yesStudies in Family Planning, EarlyView.
Abstract This Data Article describes a novel dataset from the “Re‐Examining Traditional Method Use” (TEAM‐UP) project, which systematically collected data on the measurement of and motivations for use of non‐modern (traditional and folkloric) contraceptive methods and/or modern methods, in four sub‐Saharan African countries: the Democratic Republic of ...

Effects of tempol on renal medullary tissue hypoxia in an ovine model of Gram‐negative septic acute kidney injury

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Renal arterial infusion of tempol (RAT) at the onset of Gram‐negative sepsis can prevent sepsis‐induced medullary tissue hypoxia and acute kidney injury (AKI). However, it is not known whether treatment with tempol at a clinically relevant time point of sepsis is similarly effective. Thus, we examined whether tempol can reverse renal medullary

TMEM16A chloride channels in the female reproductive tract and their role in normal and dysfunctional pregnancy and labour

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle. An increase in TMEM16A expression in labour underpins a lengthening of the plateau and this provides time for the contraction to become larger and longer, important for timely successful labour.

Placental mitochondrial metabolic adaptation maintains cellular energy balance in pregnancy complicated by gestational hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).

‘Grinning and bearing it’—A survey study exploring animal‐related injuries in UK and Irish veterinary students

open access: yesVeterinary Record Open, Volume 13, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Background While veterinary surgeons are known to have particularly high rates of injury compared to other sectors, little is known about the rates of injury among veterinary students. This study aims to understand animal‐related injury rates, injury context and mechanisms, attitudes to reporting injuries, and resultant behaviour among UK and ...

A 5‐Year Retrospective Morbidity Profile of School‐Aged Children at Ho Polyclinic, Volta Region, Ghana: Skin Conditions, Malaria, and Respiratory Illnesses as Leading Causes (2018–2022)

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Analysis of 10,428 outpatient consultations among school‐aged children attending Ho Polyclinic, Ghana (2018–2022), showed that three conditions accounted for 77.4% of all morbidity: skin conditions (38.3%), malaria (23.0%), and respiratory conditions (16.1%).

Effects of Prenatal Ursodeoxycholic Acid and Probiotic Supplementation on Stress Parameters, Immune Response and Lamb Survival Rates in Ewes

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Prenatal ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and probiotic supplementation, administered alone or combined, modulate colostrum quality and neonatal immunity in ewes. Combined UDCA + PRO most consistently increases colostral IgG, enhances neonatal IgG levels, and improves lamb survival.
