Non-model model organisms [PDF]

BMC Biology, 2017
Model organisms are widely used in research as accessible and convenient systems to study a particular area or question in biology. Traditionally only a handful of organisms have been widely studied, but modern research tools are enabling researchers to extend the set of model organisms to include less-studied and more unusual systems.

Influence of sperm cryopreservation on sperm motility and proAKAP4 concentration in mice

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2022
Background The protein proAKAP4 is crucial for sperm motility and has been suggested as an indicator of male fertility. We determined the relationship between proAKAP4 concentration and sperm motility parameters in mice, and investigated the effects of ...

Conditional fiducial models [PDF]

, 2017
The fiducial is not unique in general, but we prove that in a restricted class of models it is uniquely determined by the sampling distribution of the data. It depends in particular not on the choice of a data generating model.

Integrable sigma models and perturbed coset models [PDF]

, 2001
Sigma models arise frequently in particle physics and condensed-matter physics as low-energy effective theories. In this paper I compute the exact free energy at any temperature in two hierarchies of integrable sigma models in two dimensions.

Ultrasound imaging for assessing aortic phenotypes: A preclinical tool for measuring cardiac disease model progression and therapeutic effect

WFUMB Ultrasound Open
Cardiac dysfunction is a common feature of numerous diseases, ranging from metabolic disorders like Mucopolysaccharidosis Type 1 (MPS I), a.k.a. Hurler syndrome to neuromuscular disorders such as Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 (DM1).

Controlling the uncontrolled variation in the diet induced obese mouse by microbiomic characterization

Scientific Reports, 2022
Group sizes in an animal study are calculated from estimates on variation, effect, power and significance level. Much of the variation in glucose related parameters of the diet-induced obese (DIO) mouse model is due to inter-individual variation in gut ...

A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about

Revisiting a quarter of a century of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-associated cardiovascular diseases at the German Primate Center [PDF]

Primate Biology, 2017
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) comorbidities have become clinically more important due to antiretroviral therapy. Although therapy increases life expectancy, it does not completely suppress immune activation and its associated complications.
