Evaluating novel attachment methods for tracking devices on terrestrial mammals
We deployed GNSS tracking devices on 2 endangered large terrestrial mammals, scimitar‐horned oryx and Przewalski's horses, using novel attachment methods. Tags achieved fix success rates and spatial accuracy that compare well with standard collars used on large mammals.

A 68‐year‐old woman with mucus plug‐forming asthma and highly tenacious sputum received repeated administrations of inhaled N‐acetylcysteine, with subsequent rapid sputum improvement and radiographic resolution of mucus plugging. This case suggests that tenacious sputum may represent a treatable trait and that inhaled N‐acetylcysteine may serve as a ...

Inference on state occupancy in covariate‐driven hidden Markov models
Abstract Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are natural and popular tools for analysing animal behaviour based on movement, acceleration and other sensor data. In particular, these models make it possible to infer how the animal's decision‐making process interacts with internal and external drivers by relating the probabilities of switching between distinct ...

Managing Asthma Well and Sustainably – Patient Perspectives Explored
ABSTRACT Context Asthma affects 300 million people worldwide. The widespread use of short‐acting beta2‐agonist (SABA) relievers, commonly delivered via pressurised metered dose inhalers (pMDIs), is contrary to evidence‐based guidelines. SABA overuse is associated with poor asthma control and high carbon emissions.

Abstract I propose the concept of delomization, the process whereby a sign comes to be understood as a symbol. I term such signs delomes. With rhematization and dicentization, delomization completes the triplet that linguistic anthropologists derive from Charles Sanders Peirce's third trichotomy.
