Resilin in Insect Flight Systems
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 34, Issue 35, August 28, 2024.The development of resilin‐based biomaterials for medical and industrial applications has been constantly advanced in recent years. Resilin is a rubber‐like protein that occurs in arthropod exoskeleton structures. In the insect flight system, its function depends on its overall location, protein sequence and mixture with stiffer exoskeleton components.

Pediculosis palpebrarum initially diagnosed as blepharitis
African Vision and Eye Health, 2009 Pediculosis is an infestation of lice. Eyelid involvement is uncommon, but can be caused by pediculus humanus capitis (head louse), rarely by pediculus humanus corporis (body louse) and commonly by phthirus pubis (pubic louse).

Journal of Phycology, Volume 60, Issue 4, Page 834-852, August 2024.Abstract Diatoms are key components of freshwater ecosystems and are regularly used for paleolimnological reconstructions, in which defining species optima and tolerances is fundamental for interpreting assemblage shifts in a sediment record. Here, we examined responses of diatoms across three major environmental gradients—dissolved inorganic carbon ...

On the Nephrocytes of Pediculus humanus
Parasitology, 1921 In Pediculus humanus are found two groups of excretory-accumulatory cells known as nephrocytes.The one group, the peri-oesophageal, lies ventrally and consists of large cells aggregated usually in two masses about the oesophagus anterior to the reniform salivary glands.The second group lies dorsally and consists of disseminated cell aggregates linked ...

Head lice‐induced anemia in a child and implications for oral health: Case report
Special Care in Dentistry, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 761-767, May/June 2024.Abstract Pediculosis capitis, colloquially referred to as head lice, engenders adverse social and economic consequences among children. While generally not considered a health hazard, chronic and severe head lice infestations have been linked to secondary iron‐deficiency anemia.
