PREVALENCE OF GATRO-INTESTINAL PARASITES IN Clarias gariepinus SOLD IN IBADAN CENTRAL MARKET, IBADAN, NIGERIA

Academy Journal of Science and Engineering
Gastrointestinal parasitic infections in fish pose significant public health and economic challenges, especially in urban markets with suboptimal handling conditions. This study examined the prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in Clarias gariepinus (

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

An unusual titanosaur axis from the Upper Cretaceous of Brazil and its significance for sauropod anatomy and systematics

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

Developmental morphology of claspers and clasper‐glands during maturation in Potamotrygon wallacei (Chondrichthyes: Potamotrygoninae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The claspers are the copulatory organs in male elasmobranchs, responsible for directing the semen into the female cloaca (C). However, the microscopic morphology of the claspers remains poorly understood. This study describes the morphology of the claspers and clasper glands (CGs) of cururu stingray (Potamotrygon wallacei) at different ...

Postcranial anatomy and osteohistology of an early prozostrodont cynodont from the Upper Triassic of Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Prozostrodon brasiliensis, a probainognathian cynodont of the clade Prozostrodontia, is recognized as a key taxon for understanding the origin of Mammaliaformes and mammals. Despite detailed investigations of its cranial anatomy, the postcranial skeleton has received comparatively less attention.

Investigating the Heat Stability and Inactivation Conditions of Decapod Iridescent Virus 1 (DIV1)

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat treatment effectively inactivates decapod iridescent virus 1 (DIV1) under milder conditions than current WOAH recommendations. DIV1 infectivity was eliminated at 56°C for 30 min, 60°C for 15 min, or 70°C for 1 min, providing optimized heat treatment strategies for aquaculture biosecurity and seafood safety.

Long Noncoding RNA H19 Mediates STAT3‐Dependent Activation of Keratinocytes and Fibroblasts in Systemic Sclerosis Skin

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Dermal systemic sclerosis (SSc) fibroblasts and their exosomes can activate keratinocytes in SSc, with long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) H19 highlighted as the most up‐regulated RNA in their cargo compared with healthy controls (HCs). The role of H19 in SSc pathogenesis has never been investigated.

Beyond wound sealing: A dual‐functional adhesive nanofiber membrane promoting coagulation and osteogenesis in extraction sites

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Inspired by the suction mechanics of octopus suckers, a dual‐layer nanofiber membrane integrates antibacterial protection, strong wet adhesion, and osteogenic support, offering a bioinspired strategy for effective hemostasis and alveolar bone preservation.
