Unravelling Evolutionary Dynamics of Female Sexual Cannibalism and Male Reproductive Strategies in Spiders

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexual cannibalism (SC), where one mating partner consumes the other in the context of mating, is especially prevalent among spiders.

This work aimed to apply the principles of skin mark analysis to a cetacean species to build a sex‐discrimination model exclusively based on photographic material. Relevant differences between sexes emerged in markings, with males presenting more social, aggression‐related, and fishing‐related marks overall, and a stronger tendency of mark accumulation

Sexual function in women with a history of sexual assault: A cross‐sectional study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Adult sexual assault was most strongly associated with impaired overall sexual function, while different assault histories were associated with distinct patterns of sexual‐function difficulties. Abstract Introduction There is inconsistency in the literature regarding how a history of sexual assault influences adult sexual function. Our objective was to

Effect of pain management, supervised exercise, and pelvic floor muscle training on sexual function in women with endometriosis: A randomized controlled trial

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
A multimodal intervention including supervised exercise, pelvic floor muscle training, and pain management was associated with modest short‐term improvements in sexual function among women with endometriosis. Findings should be interpreted cautiously due to differences in sexual activity status between groups.

Tanner stages of thelarche in relation to anthropometric and ultrasound predictors in premenarcheal girls

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
We found a close correlation between thelarche and internal genital maturation on pelvic ultrasound, paralleling Tanner breast stages and supporting the concept of correlated external and internal pubertal development. Abstract Introduction Thelarche is often the first sign of puberty initiation in girls.

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Feral pigs (Sus scrofa) are important reservoirs for zoonotic and livestock pathogens in Australia, but robust information on the spatial distribution of pathogens in pig populations remains limited. We analysed serological data from a systematic, state‐wide surveillance program to investigate spatial heterogeneity in exposure to Brucella suis and ...
