Complex demographic, developmental, fitness, and physiological responses of larval eastern hellbenders to elevated water conductivity

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Here we explore the effects of elevated water conductivity on larval eastern hellbenders (Cryptobranchus a. alleganiensis), both lethal and sublethal. We found that elevated water conductivity significantly impacts both survival and morphology, though it has limited effects on locomotor performance, stress physiology, and oxidative stress.

The effect of multimodal input on L2 learners' reading comprehension: A preregistered eye‐tracking study

The Modern Language Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Multimodal materials (e.g., written text supplemented by images and/or audio) are commonplace in language classrooms. While they have been consistently shown to be beneficial for vocabulary acquisition, the efficacy of multimodal input in scaffolding text comprehension is less clear. Conflicting findings have also been reported in terms of the

Depleted Dissolved Oxygen Concentrations Impair the Embryonic and Early Larval Development of Eastern Hellbenders (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 2, Page 112-126, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Depletion of dissolved oxygen (DO; hypoxia) and its influence on sensitive fauna and vulnerable life stages is an emerging concern in lotic freshwater ecosystems. A species particularly vulnerable to hypoxia is the Eastern Hellbender—a large‐bodied, fully aquatic salamander which relies on cutaneous respiration and has evolved to thrive in ...

Factor Analysis of the Neurological Evaluation Scale (NES) and Corresponding Brain Function and Structures

International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research, Volume 35, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Neurological soft signs (NSS) are minor, non‐localizable neurological abnormalities. This study aimed to investigate the factor structure of the Neurological Evaluation Scale. Material and Methods A total of 355 subjects (233 patients and 122 general population subjects). NSS were assessed using the NES.

Applying Anthropology to Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting

American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 1, Page 195-205, March 2026.
ABSTRACT In this article, we review how anthropologies from various subdisciplines, from social to evolutionary anthropology, are contributing to our understanding of female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C). We focus on four key questions: What are the origins of FGM/C? What functions and meanings are linked to FGM/C?

The Effect of Background Colour on Behaviour and Development of Golden Mantella (Mantella aurantiaca) Tadpoles

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 3, Page 204-215, March 2026.
This study examined how background colour influences behaviour and development in golden mantella (Mantella aurantiaca) tadpoles across ontogeny. Tadpoles preferred darker backgrounds, and this preference got less strong with increasing age. Individuals reared in darker conditions were less active but did not differ in growth rate and shelter use when ...

Associations between endometrial swab bacteriology and cytology findings and live foal rates in Thoroughbred broodmares in the United Kingdom

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 348-358, March 2026.
Abstract Background To date, relationships between pre‐covering endometrial swab cytology and bacteriology and fertility outcomes in Thoroughbred broodmares in the United Kingdom are unknown and could aid clinical decision making. Objectives To investigate associations between cytology and bacteriology findings from the last endometrial swab taken in ...

Global Patterns and Gaps in Research on Salinity Tolerance of Inland Fishes

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 400-411, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater salinization is an emerging threat impacting approximately one‐third of the world's freshwater bodies. However, the salinity tolerance of many inland fishes remains understudied, despite being a crucial factor in determining species distributions and fitness.
