Case Report: Suspected “stiff dog syndrome” in a Maltese dog

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
A Maltese dog was presented with a stiff gait, secondary to muscle hypertonicity, affecting the axial and proximal appendicular muscles, which had progressively worsened over the last 4 years, associated with episodes of muscle spasms.

Wood Sawdust as a Low‐Cost Filler in Whole‐Tire Reclaimed Rubber: Mechanical Characterization and Factory‐Scale Cost Analysis

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐tire reclaimed rubber is upgraded with wood sawdust, a carpentry by‐product available at no cost, across loadings from 0 to 20 wt%. At 5 wt%, tensile strength, elongation, hardness, viscosity, and water absorption all stay within commercial specification, and real factory data show an annual production saving near $62,000 with no capital ...

Evaluation of Varnishes to Slow Down the Aging of Plasticized PVC

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Varnish effectiveness in plasticized PVC strongly depends on both formulation and degradation state. A polyurethane varnish effectively limits color change and plasticizer loss in unaged PVC without phosphate plasticizers, whereas no protective effect is observed for phosphate‐containing PVC.

Pelvic morphology and body size in relation to the preauricular sulcus: Evidence from medieval to modern Iberia

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The preauricular sulcus has long been debated as a pelvic feature variably attributed to obstetric stress, ligamentous traction, and broader biomechanical processes. To clarify its determinants, we analyzed 409 adult individuals from three archeological and one early modern skeletal collection from the Iberian Peninsula, integrating graded ...

Effects of Cellulase and Lactobacillus plantarum Supplementation on Fermentation Characteristics, In Situ Degradability, and Microbial Community Dynamics of Apple Pomace Silage

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This study aimed to investigate the effects of cellulase and Lactobacillus plantarum on the silage quality, in situ digestibility, and microbial communities of apple pomace silage. The combined supplementation of cellulase and Lactobacillus plantarum in apple pomace silage improved fermentation quality and enhanced rumen utilization efficiency.

Integration of Nutrition and Organic Agriculture Framework in Managing Gastrointestinal Nematodes in Ruminants

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Gastrointestinal nematode infections damage the gastrointestinal epithelial tissues of ruminants, affecting nutrient utilization and overall production performance. This review outlines host‐gastrointestinal nematode interactions and discusses integrated control strategies, including nutritional supplementation, grazing management, vaccines, and ...

Pharmacometric evaluation of pre‐referral rectal artesunate in children with severe malaria

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Parenteral artesunate is the preferred first‐line treatment for severe malaria. Pre‐referral rectal artesunate suppositories are recommended where parenteral treatment is inaccessible. In this study, we compared dihydroartemisinin exposure and model‐predicted early parasite clearance following rectal artesunate and intravenous artesunate in ...

Low‐Field MRI as a Multiparametric Tool for Large Engineered Tissue Characterization

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in 3D bioprinting have enabled the fabrication of large and complex engineered tissues, but their increasing size demands non‐invasive tools for monitoring structure, maturation, and perfusion. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) offers unique multiparametric capabilities, yet high‐field systems remain costly and inaccessible for most ...

Improving the learning experience in an undergraduate course on microbial metabolism by using an illustrated story

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 131-141, March/April 2025.
Abstract In the classroom, metabolism is often approached and received as a mundane exercise in memorization. Teaching metabolism also faces the challenge of negative perceptions that can impede learning. We sought to improve the learning experience in an undergraduate lecture course on microbial metabolism by implementing an illustrated story that ...
