The plateau pika has multiple benefits for alpine grassland ecosystem in Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

Ecosystem Health and Sustainability, 2020
The plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) has been engaged in pest control for many years based on the logic that the plateau pika is responsible for alpine grassland degradation and competes with livestock for forage resources.

Residual Periodontal Pockets at Implant Placement as Risk Indicator for Peri‐Implantitis: A Systematic Review

Clinical Implant Dentistry and Related Research, Volume 28, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Intro The present systematic review aimed to assess whether the presence of residual periodontal pockets (PPD) after active periodontal therapy increases the risk of developing peri‐implantitis in patients with treated periodontitis who undergo implant therapy.

Burrowing-mammal-induced enhanced soil multifunctionality is associated with higher microbial network complexity in alpine meadows

Geoderma
The Plateau pika, a native burrowing mammal in alpine ecosystems, induces significant alterations in both the diversity and functions of the above-ground plant community; however, their effects on the below-ground soil microbial community and its ...

Pseudogenization of CCL14 in the Ochotonidae (pika) family

Innate Immunity, 2015
The interaction between chemokines and their receptors is crucial for inflammatory cell trafficking. CCL14 binds with high affinity to CCR5. In leporids, CCR5 underwent gene conversion with CCR2. The study of CCR5 ligands in leporid species showed that CCL8 is pseudogenized, while CCL3, CCL4 and CCL5 are functional.
