Body mass and sex estimation from lower carnassial tooth morphometry in the endangered Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus): An ecomorphological analysis of sexual size dimorphism

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus) is an endangered subspecies characterized by highly fragmented populations and increasing human–carnivore conflict across the Iberian Peninsula. Although body mass strongly influences predator–prey dynamics and ecological performance, quantitative assessments of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) and body mass

Fecal Virome Transplantation in Human Disease and Livestock Production: Evidence, Mechanisms, and Translational Challenges

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Fecal virome transplantation may reshape bacterial communities and host responses while reducing viable bacterial transfer. Preclinical evidence suggests biological activity, but human efficacy remains uncertain, and translation requires product standardization, causal validation, donor–recipient matching, and rigorous biosafety assessment.

Switching disease‐modifying therapies in patients with spinal muscular atrophy: A systematic review on effectiveness outcomes

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
With multiple disease‐modifying therapies now available, treatment switching has become an important clinical consideration in the management of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). While some switches are prompted by suboptimal clinical response, more commonly they are driven by treatment burden, convenience, or adverse events.

Setting up mother–infant pair lactation studies with biobanking for research according to regulatory requirements

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Within the ConcePTION project we set out to design two mother–infant pair studies collecting breast milk and plasma from the mother and plasma from the infant (for metformin and prednisolone) in order to demonstrate the premises and conditions for investigating potential drug transfer in association with breastfeeding.

Population pharmacokinetics of levofloxacin in breastmilk in patients with rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Levofloxacin is a widely used antibiotic included in rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis (RR‐TB) treatment. Data describing levofloxacin concentrations in breastmilk and infant exposure are limited. We analysed data from two South African studies of breastfeeding women receiving levofloxacin (750–1000 mg daily) for RR‐TB.

Beyond the label: Rethinking off‐label drug use in paediatrics. Towards a scientifically grounded and safer future for paediatric pharmacotherapy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite regulatory progress being made in the past two decades, off‐label drug use in paediatrics remains pervasive, with prevalence estimated between 3% and 97% of prescriptions across different clinical settings. Off‐label use—defined as prescribing outside the conditions described in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC)—is often ...
