Skeletal muscle status and malnutrition as predictors of short‐term radiotherapy response and oral mucositis in head and neck cancer

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Baseline muscle mass and malnutrition were not decisive for short‐term radiotherapy outcomes in advanced head‐and‐neck cancer, yet diminished hand‐grip strength signaled poorer tumor response. This suggests that functional muscle metrics may serve as an accessible, actionable biomarker warranting validation in larger longitudinal cohorts.

Modification and expansion of existing body condition scoring scales for rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) improves inter‐rater reliability when used by experienced raters

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Reliable body condition scoring in rabbits is essential in managing healthy bodyweight. The commonly used Rabbit size‐o‐meter (RSOM) has shown poor inter‐rater reliability, particularly among inexperienced raters. This study aimed to develop a reliable, reproducible body condition scoring scale for companion rabbits across breeds ...
