Morphotype Bias, Morph Specific Recruitment and No Elevation‐Life History Relation in High Altitude Mesquite Lizard Populations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Site‐level differences in population growth (λ) and phenotype frequencies. Mountain silhouettes represent the three study sites. Morph relative abundances are shown in the colored vertical bar. Point estimates and confidence intervals of λ for each site are displayed below, with the dashed line marking the threshold for demographic stability (λ = 1 ...

Baseline Cortisol and Behavioral Phenotype Are Linked to Context‐Dependent Spatial Cognition and Space Use in Giant Pandas

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Baseline cortisol and repeatable behavioral phenotypes were associated with context‐dependent spatial cognition in giant pandas. Individuals differed in spatial search performance under stable and changing resource conditions. Exploratory GPS analyses revealed directionally consistent but non‐significant patterns of space use in novel environments ...

Gut Microbiota Analysis and Comparison in Forest Musk Deer (Moschus berezovskii) of Different Ages and Musk‐Secreting Periods

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Metagenomic sequencing was used to analyze fecal microbiota of captive male forest musk deer (FMD) from the Sichuan Institute of Musk Deer Breeding across ages and musk‐secreting periods. Gut microbiota was generally stable and dominated by Firmicutes, while age and musk secretion shaped microbial composition and function, with musk collection linked ...

Contrasting Responses of Rodents With Different Habitat Associations to Rapid Urbanization in a Chinese Megacity

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Rapid urbanization reshaped rodent populations, morphology, and gut microbiota along an urban–rural gradient. The synanthropic rat (Rattus norvegicus) increased in abundance toward the urban core and exhibited reduced ear and tail length, whereas the farmland mouse (Apodemus agrarius) and woodland rat (Niviventer confucianus) declined.

Comparative effectiveness, safety and acceptability of pharmacological and psychosocial interventions for the treatment of cannabis use disorder: A network meta‐analysis

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Our primary aim was to conduct a network meta‐analysis (NMA) for the effectiveness, safety and acceptability of all psychosocial interventions and all pharmacotherapies for cannabis use disorder (CUD). Methods We conducted a NMA of studies identified from two completed systematic reviews examining the effectiveness, safety and ...

Male Sexual and Reproductive Health in Diabetes and Obesity Pharmacotherapy: A Source‐Triangulated Counseling Map

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Drugs used for diabetes and obesity increasingly shape male sexual and reproductive counseling, but clinical studies, trial registrations, regulatory labels, and patents answer different questions. Objectives The objective is to map these sources and define what each can support when counseling men receiving metabolic drugs ...

Proteomic Sex Estimation From Embedded Tooth Enamel

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Teeth hold insights into childhood diet, health and demography—including chromosomal sex. Proteomic analysis can detect peptide biomarkers from amelogenin genes encoded on X and Y chromosomes, allowing sex estimation. Embedding resins, necessary for thin sectioning teeth, can damage analytical systems, preventing proteomic analysis. We present

Canine desexing attitudes and practices of Australian veterinarians: A cross‐sectional survey

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Canine desexing is one of the most common small animal surgical procedures in Australia, yet little is known about current practices. This study characterised attitudes, practitioner recommendations and surgical practices for routine canine desexing among Australian veterinarians using an online cross‐sectional survey (n = 107). Respondent demographics

Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

The ongoing oleoylethanolamide story: Therapeutic implications in the control of obesity and its comorbidities

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The global burden of obesity continues to rise, demanding effective pharmacological strategies for individuals in whom prevention alone is insufficient. Recent incretin‐based and multi‐agonist therapies have delivered unprecedented weight loss, demonstrating that the simultaneous modulation of multiple metabolic pathways can optimize body weight ...
