A new preclinical sheep model of medial meniscus anterior root repair. Part 2. Surgical strategy, technical considerations, pearls and pitfalls

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To address a gap in translational research by developing a preclinical sheep model of medial meniscus anterior root (MAR) repair in vivo and to compare probabilities of potential pitfalls and difficulties with humans. Methods Preoperative planning and surgical procedures applied to patients were adapted to adult sheep.

Synchrotron‐Based Trauma Assessment of Robotic Electrode Insertions in Cochlear Implantation

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Minimizing intraoperative trauma during cochlear implant electrode insertion is crucial for preserving residual hearing, and efforts have been made to introduce robotic systems for electrode insertion. On temporal bone specimens, the OTODRIVE system demonstrated its ability to enable consistent and controlled electrode placement while minimizing trauma

Antbears and underground melons: A highly specialized seed dispersal mutualism mediated by scent

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal is critical for the establishment and persistence of populations of most plant species. We investigated the seed dispersal biology of an African melon, Cucumis humifructus, which is closely related to cultivated cucumbers and watermelons but differs in that it buries its fruits deep underground.

Cross‐Linking Mass Spectrometry of the Antimicrobial Peptides Magainin 2 and PGLa Reveals Heterodimerization in Micellar Medium

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale In this study, we applied cross‐linking mass spectrometry (XL‐MS) to characterize the oligomeric states of a PGLa/magainin 2 mixture and gain insight into the heterodimerization previously suggested in the literature. Both peptides have shown a synergistic enhancement of activity when tested in antimicrobial assays; however, the ...

Chronic pain management in a dairy cow with deep digital sepsis

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract This case report describes a cow with a penetrating foreign body in the sole horn of its medial claw of the right forelimb, leading to sequestration and necrosis of the pedal bone and subsequent chronic pain. The surgical interventions, multimodal pain management and development of the gait pattern over more than 6 weeks are described. The cow

Predicting Spatial Distributions of Mammalian Predation on Translocated Wild Turkeys in Agriculturally Dominated Landscapes 在以农业为主的景观中哺乳动物对易地放归的野生火鸡捕食的空间分布预测

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
The edge densities of cropland, developed land, and water bodies (panel a) predict the spatial probability of mammalian predation on wild turkeys (panel b) using Mahalanobis distance factor analysis in Quitman County, Mississippi, United States. The three habitat fragmentation variables are represented by three arrows, respectively.

Survey of Veterinarians and Hoof Trimmers on Methods Applied to Treat Claw Lesions in Dairy Cattle

, 2005
A survey inquiring about treatment approaches for claw horn lesion in dairy cattle was available to veterinarians and hoof trimmers who were members of either the American Association of Bovine Practitioners (AABP) or the Hoof Trimmers Association (HTA) during the winter of 2013.

Microhabitat and adhesive toepads shape gecko limb morphology

Integrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 634-650, May 2025.
Microhabitat affects gecko limb morphology differently than expected in other lizards. Although adhesive toepads' state is phylogenetically conserved, they were acquired and lost multiple times in geckos, with an association of toepads with arboreality. Padless geckos generally have longer limbs and limb segments than pad‐bearing species.

Hedgehogs and Angiostrongylus cantonensis: Uncovering the Role of Atelerix albiventris in the Parasite Life Cycle

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ongoing invasion of the zoonotic parasite Angiostrongylus cantonensis threatens humans, other mammals, and birds. In Mallorca, neurological disorders associated with this parasite are increasingly reported in free‐living Algerian hedgehogs, Atelerix algirus, raising public health concerns.

‘I like to dance with the flowers!’: Exploring the possibilities for biodiverse futures in an urban forest school

Children &Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores the ways in which ‘forest school’, an educational approach where children engage in creative and play based activities in a ‘natural’ environment, can contribute towards Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG 15) by promoting sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and by helping address biodiversity loss. Drawing on data
