Healthcare Resource Utilization and Cost After Temperature‐Controlled Radiofrequency Treatment of Nasal Airway Obstruction: A Real‐World Longitudinal Claims Analysis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nasal airway obstruction (NAO) is prevalent with substantial health and quality of life burdens. Nasal valve collapse (NVC) is one structural cause of NAO. Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF) nasal valve remodeling offers an alternative to invasive surgery.

Investigating diel patterns of predation events in wild turkeys using tri‐axial accelerometer data

Wildlife Society Bulletin
Numerous studies have evaluated the species responsible for predation events on birds and their nests, but little research has assessed the location and timing of mortality events.

Nocturnal activity by the primarily diurnal Central American agouti (Dasyprocta punctata) in relation to environmental conditions, resource abundance and predation risk [PDF]

, 2009
An animal's fitness is in part based on its ability to manage the inherent risks (foraging costs, predation, exposure to disease) with the benefits (resource gain, access to mates, social interactions) of activity (Abrams 1991, Altizer et al. 2003, Lima &

Assessing the viability of genebanked seeds from rare, wild plants native to the United States using the D.E.A.D. paradigm

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Genebanks must maintain viable seeds for decades. Seeds that germinate are clearly alive, but some seeds, often from wild populations, do not germinate because they are dormant, empty, aged, or damaged (D.E.A.D.). This work evaluates the effects of D.E.A.D.

Optimal adult growth of Daphnia in a seasonal environment [PDF]

, 1993
1. The cladoceran Daphnia serves as an example of an iteroparous organism, with overlapping generations, that is capable of substantial adult growth. The life history of Daphnia was modelled as the consequence of a series of decisions about allocation of

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...

Space–time clusters for early detection of grizzly bear predation

Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Accurate detection and classification of predation events is important to determine predation and consumption rates by predators. However, obtaining this information for large predators is constrained by the speed at which carcasses disappear and the ...

Predicting ecology and hearing sensitivities in Parapontoporia—An extinct long‐snouted dolphin

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Analyses of the cetacean (whale and dolphin) inner ear provide glimpses into the ecology and evolution of extinct and extant groups. The paleoecology of the long‐snouted odontocete (toothed whale) group, Parapontoporia, is primarily marine with its depositional context also suggesting freshwater tolerance.

Synapsids and sensitivity: Broad survey of tetrapod trigeminal canal morphology supports an evolutionary trend of increasing facial tactile specialization in the mammal lineage

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The trigeminus nerve (cranial nerve V) is a large and significant conduit of sensory information from the face to the brain, with its three branches extending over the head to innervate a wide variety of integumentary sensory receptors, primarily tactile.

Trait‐mediated indirect effect involving a chain of learning in agroecosystems

Ecosphere
An increase in predation risk triggers a trait response of prey, which alters the interactions between the prey and other species, ultimately affecting other species in the ecosystem.
