The Wiggle Index: An Open Source Bioassay to Assess Sub-Lethal Insecticide Response in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Toxicological assays measuring mortality are routinely used to describe insecticide response, but sub-lethal exposures to insecticides can select for resistance and yield additional biological information describing the ways in which an insecticide ...

The Animal Welfare Consequences and Moral Implications of Lethal and Non-Lethal Fox Control Methods

Animals
Control methods are applied worldwide to reduce predation on livestock by European red foxes (Vulpes vulpes). Lethal methods can inflict suffering; however, moral debate about their use is lacking.

Comparison of the lethal triad and the lethal diamond in severe trauma patients: a multicenter cohort

World Journal of Emergency Surgery
Background To reduce the number of deaths caused by exsanguination, the initial management of severe trauma aims to prevent, if not limit, the lethal triad, which consists of acidosis, coagulopathy, and hypothermia.

Tramadol modulates Lucilia sericata development: clinical larval therapy and forensic insights [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Entomotoxicology can inform both forensic reconstructions and clinical larval therapy, yet the consequences of patient-level drug exposure on therapeutic flies remain unexplored.

Sub-lethal and population-level impacts of afidopyropen and flonicamid on Harmonia conformis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Insecticides that selectively target pests while preserving natural enemies are essential for Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. This study investigated the effects of two ‘selective’ insecticides, afidopyropen and flonicamid, alongside a broad ...

Molecular, biochemical and behavioral responses of Daphnia magna under long-term exposure to polystyrene nanoplastics

Environment International, 2022
The presence and potential toxicity of nanoplastics (NPs) in aquatic ecosystems is an issue of growing concern. Although many studies have investigated the adverse effects of short-term exposure to high concentrations of NPs to aquatic organisms, the ...

Lethal pulmonary thromboembolism associated with decreased thyroid hormone levels [PDF]

Archives of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2015
Thyroid pathology is rarely involved in the pathogenesis of sudden death in young people. We report here the cases of two young patients with decreased levels of thyroid hormones whose death was caused by an increased thrombotic status, with venous thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism.

A molecular single-cell lung atlas of lethal COVID-19

Nature, 2021
Respiratory failure is the leading cause of death in patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 infection1,2, but the host response at the lung tissue level is poorly understood. Here we performed single-nucleus RNA sequencing of about 116,000 nuclei from the lungs
