Animal fluency in people with Parkinson's disease: Item‐based performance before and after deep brain stimulation surgery

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract People with Parkinson disease (PD) after surgery for deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN‐DBS) often decline in animal fluency due to impairments in executive functions and/or language. Item‐based measures of animal fluency may shed light on the specific nature of this decline, and into the strategies used when ...

Zoonotic anxieties: The cultural politics of Nepal's quest for pandemic preparedness

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Based on fieldwork conducted in Nepal (2022–2024) and by paying attention to how local and transnational notions of epidemiological risk are deployed, this ethnography introduces the concept of “zoonotic anxieties” to make sense of the multi‐species relational ethos that contemporary global health regimes propose.

Comparison of Haemoglobin Concentrations From Venous and From Finger‐Pricked Capillary Blood in a Region With a High Prevalence of Anaemia in Ethiopia

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This cross‐sectional study was conducted in the Somali Regional State in Ethiopia. The purpose of the study was to compare haemoglobin (Hb) concentrations from venous and finger‐pricked capillary blood using the HemoCue 301 as well as estimating anaemia prevalence. Participants were non‐pregnant women of reproductive age (WRA), 18–49 years old

Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) in brackish water gives rise to adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...

Investigation of the global transportation of Culicoides biting midges, vectors of livestock and equid arboviruses, from flower‐packing plants in Kenya

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Arboviral diseases spread by Culicoides biting midges have been introduced into Europe by unknown means. A possible route is the carriage of midges with cut flowers shipped to flower markets. We sampled Culicoides in and around a cut flower farm in Kenya; midges were caught in the vicinity and a greenhouse, but not where flowers are processed.
