Gonadal Development–Related Genes and a Male‐Specific Genetic Marker Identified in the Endangered Sichuan Taimen (Hucho bleekeri)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analyses were used to validate gonadal development–related genes and to identify a sex‐specific molecular marker in Hucho bleekeri. ABSTRACT Sex determination and differentiation represent fundamental topics in reproductive biology. Sichuan taimen (Hucho bleekeri), a first‐class national protected fish species in

Seeing Clearly or Bracing for Impact? The Tug‐of‐War Between Neutrality and Conservatism in Financial Reporting Voir clair ou se préparer à l'impact? Le bras de fer entre neutralité et conservatisme en matière d'information financière

Accounting Perspectives, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A long‐standing debate exists between neutrality and conservatism in financial reporting. This debate has gained momentum following the 2010 FASB decision to remove the term conservatism from its Conceptual Framework. While neutrality is now promoted as a cornerstone of faithful representation, conservatism remains embedded in numerous ...

Genotyping Contemporary Captive and Historical Wild Western Lowland Gorillas Indicates Captive Breeding Is Maintaining Genetic Diversity in a Critically Endangered Primate

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Captive populations of threatened species risk losing genetic diversity over time. We evaluated the genetic status of contemporary captive western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) at Howletts and Port Lympne and compared this with specimens from a historical wild population.

Tipping the Scales Using Cryopreservation: Modelling the Genetic Value and Management Potential of Integrated Cryopreservation for Threatened Ex‐Situ Pupfish Populations

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract depicts the number of additional fish that would be required to achieve 90% genetic diversity for endangered pupfish species housed in EAZA collections, with or without the use of cryopreserved material. ABSTRACT Zoos and aquaria must retain genetic diversity for the species they house if the populations are to remain viable ...

A Single Centre Feasibility Study of Vacuum Assisted Breast Biopsy Excision as a Non‐Surgical Alternative for Selected Women With Borderline Breast Lesions

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
In a feasibility study at an Australian teaching hospital, women showed a clear preference for VAB Ex over surgical breast biopsy. The clinical outcomes confirm the safety and effectiveness of this approach. Overall, 90% of women had benign VAB Ex findings and did not require SBB, creating capacity in the healthcare system.

Tongue and Glottis Morphology of Cathartes aura and the Secret of Its Functional Adaptation

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cathartes aura, commonly known as the Turkey vulture, is a scavenger bird belonging to the family Cathartidae that is widely distributed throughout the Americas and classified as a New World vulture. Its diet primarily consists of small‐sized carcasses, predominantly of wild animals.

Muscarinic agonists for schizophrenia: Bridging preclinical evidence and clinical enthusiasm

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antipsychotic drugs targeting dopamine receptors have been used to treat schizophrenia for decades, primarily alleviating positive symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions. However, they provide limited benefit for cognitive and negative symptoms—major contributors to poor outcomes—and are frequently associated with significant side ...

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.
