A Multicenter Non‐Inferiority Randomized Controlled Trial of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Early Breast Cancer: Conventional Dual Tracer Versus Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
The gold standard for detecting sentinel lymph node (SLN) in early breast cancer is combined use of radioisotope and blue dye. A newer agent, superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO), was developed to address the challenges faced with the traditional method.

Movement and Space Use Patterns of the Beale's Eyed Turtle (Sacalia bealei) Suggest Sensitivity to Environmental Changes and Poaching 比氏眼斑龟 (Sacalia bealei) 的活动与空间利用模式揭示其对环境变化及盗猎的敏感性

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Using radiotelemetry, we found that the movement and home range of the endangered Sacalia bealei varied significantly across reproductive classes and seasons, with males exhibiting greater movement than females during wet and mating seasons. The species exhibits strong aquatic dependence, favoring deep pools interspaced among riffle‐pool sequences ...

Conflict Social Networks of Critically Endangered Alpine Musk Deer in Captivity and Relationships With Fecal Steroid Hormones 圈养极危物种马麝的冲突社交网络及其与粪便类固醇激素的关联

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We conducted a grouping study on 52 adult musk deer to investigate whether group sex composition modulates aggressive behavior and stress response in captive musk deer. We found that the conflict interactions of all‐male groups were significantly more than those of mixed groups, and compared with the mixed groups, the conflict interactions of all‐male ...

Evaluation of the Sex and Species Distribution, Breeding, and Life Expectancy of Zoo‐Housed Chameleons

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT More than a third of the 202 identified chameleon species are classified as “vulnerable” or “critically endangered”. No data is available regarding the life expectancy of chameleons kept in zoos. The objectives of this study were to determine the sex and species distribution of chameleons kept in zoological institutions, and to assess their ...
