Standardizing assessment of novel methods for ecological data collection
Abstract Methodological advances in ecology enable more efficient data collection, yet researchers need to clearly and consistently report the ways in which these methods benefit their own research within the context of their specific needs. Here, we advocate for greater standardization and transparency when assessing new ecological data collection ...

Blood glucose is a key physiological indicator in sea turtles, but its measurement in field settings can be challenging. Portable point‐of‐care (POC) glucometers offer practicality, yet their agreement with reference laboratory methods has not been established for juvenile green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) from the Southwestern Atlantic.

Point‐of‐care (PoC) antibody (Ab) testing forms an integral component of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) diagnosis in both domestic and non‐domestic felids, with test kits designed for use in domestic cats frequently extrapolated for use in their wild counterparts. The SNAP® FIV/FeLV Combo lateral flow ELISA is commonly used to assign FIV infection

Predictors of Shoulder Dystocia: A Retrospective Case–Control Study
ABSTRACT Introduction Shoulder dystocia (SD) is rare, but it has serious consequences. Antepartum risk stratification for SD has demonstrated variability across populations, reflecting differences in assessment methodologies. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis using a prospectively audited electronic database from a single center.
