Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Quality‐of‐life and late effects after transabdominal cerclage: A nationwide matched cohort study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Permanent transabdominal cerclage does not appear to be associated with impaired quality‐of‐life or persistent late effects when compared to women without cerclage, regardless of mode of birth. These findings provide a more evidence‐based foundation for counseling when considering transabdominal cerclage for the prevention of preterm birth.

Effect of model assembly on simulated surgical performance in veterinary students: A randomised controlled trial utilising a canine castration model

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Background Veterinary undergraduate surgical education is evolving with the introduction of models and simulations in the preclinical setting, reducing reliance on live animals and cadavers. However, optimal methods for integrating surgical models into curricula to maximise learning outcomes remains unclear.
