Alterations in Nasal Function Following Total Laryngectomy and Their Clinical Correlates

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Although nasal structural and functional changes after total laryngectomy (TL) have been documented, the influence of clinical variables and symptoms remains underexplored. This study compared nasal structure and function between TL patients and healthy controls and identified clinical factors associated with these changes ...

Best Practices for Designing Effective Procedural Skills Training in Resource‐Constrained Settings: SELF Series Article 3

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Scaling the global surgical care workforce through independent procedural skills training is essential to address unmet surgical need. For self‐assessed simulation modules to be effective, developers need guidance and tools. This third article in the SELF series presents the expert recommendations of 2023 SELF Symposium participants on designing ...

Investigation of breathing parameters during odor perception and olfactory imagery

open access: yes, 2009
Compared with visual and auditory imagery, little is known about olfactory imagery. There is evidence that respiration may be altered by both olfactory perception and olfactory imagery.

Wild Pigs (Sus scrofa) Stand Their Ground: Investigating Flight Response, or Lack Thereof, to Perceived Predation Risk 野猪坚守原地:探究其面对感知捕食风险时的逃逸反应 (或无逃逸行为)

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We used automated behavioral response systems (ABRs) to assess invasive wild pig (Sus scrofa) behavioral response to four auditory playbacks: humans, coyote vocalizations (Canis latrans), pigs in distress, and barred owl (Strix varia) calls. Wild pigs had a significant flight response to human playbacks, but 68% of pigs did not flee.

Social Dynamics in Zoo‐Housed Bush Dogs (Speothos venaticus) Following Group Changes

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
We observed a pack of bush dogs over 10 months to measure changes in group structure following the birth of a pup and removal of an adult female. The pack displayed a robust social network and a single social hierarchy, with higher ranking members having more influence on collective movements.

Measuring Zoo Rhino Personality: Investigating Methods of Assessment and Relationships to Behavior

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
Rhino activity budgets, keeper ratings and responses to novelty showed only partial agreement, suggesting that each method measures different aspects of personality and should not be used interchangeably. Future research should focus on developing a multifaceted, validated personality assessment tool for use in zoo rhino management.

The Molecular Basis of Olfaction

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2001
The olfactory sense plays a dominant role in a variety of behaviors across many species ranging from invertebrates to higher mammals. Consequently, there is great interest in understanding how olfactory perception is initiated.

HOST MATTER: Parasite infection drives chemical reconfiguration of decomposing host and shapes insect behavioural responses

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host–parasite interactions shape ecosystems by driving species dynamics, yet their influence is typically considered in terms of host mortality rather than the chemical environments generated during infection and decomposition.
