Keel bone differences in laying hens housed in enriched colony cages
Keel bone damage may be painful to birds and affect their production. In order to better understand the frequency, position, and timepoint of keel bone damage that occur during production, the integrity of W-36 laying hen keel bones housed in enriched colony cages at 748.4 cm2 (116 in2) was evaluated.

Macrophage‐derived TRIM21 drives the progression of AP via ubiquitin‐proteasome‐mediated degradation of PHB2, leading to impaired PHB2‐mediated mitophagy. Therefore, accumulation of cytosolic mtDNA hyperactivates the cGAS‐STING signaling axis, thereby amplifying inflammatory cascades.

A further study of the Quaternary antelopes of Shelter Cave, New Mexico [PDF]
Since the preliminary description of Tetrameryx? conklingi from Quaternary deposits in Shelter Cave, New Mexico, additional materials of this interesting antilocaprid species have been obtained in the course of further excavations in the cavern by Mr. R.

Health and Welfare in Dutch Organic Laying Hens [PDF]
From 2007–2008, data on animal health and welfare and farm management during rearing and laying periods were collected from 49 flocks of organic laying hens in the Netherlands. Our aim was to investigate how organic egg farms performed in terms of animal

Copper Contact for Perovskite Solar Cells: Properties, Interfaces, and Scalable Integration
Copper electrodes, as low‐cost, scalable contacts for perovskite solar cells, offer several advantages over precious metals such as Au and Ag, including performance, cost, deposition methods, and interfacial engineering. Copper (Cu) electrodes are increasingly considered practical, sustainable alternatives to noble‐metal contacts in perovskite solar ...

n-3 essential fatty acid and vitamin D supplementation improve skeletal health in laying hens
: Keel bone fractures and osteoporosis are prevalent and damaging skeletal issues in the laying hen industry. There is a large interest in improving bone quality parameters to reduce or eliminate these conditions, thus improving bird welfare.

Laying hens are susceptible to keel bone fractures due to continuous endogenous calcium resorption for eggshell formation. Although it is assumed that external trauma to the keel bone, e.g., due to collisions, is the main cause for fractures, accumulated

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

Providing ramps in rearing aviaries affects laying pullet distribution, behavior and bone properties
SUMMARY: To ensure that laying hens can make full use of the various resources within an aviary barn and develop optimum bone health while minimizing keel bone fractures, appropriate cognitive and bone development during rearing is critical.
