Serum PFAS in Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) Firefighters From Six U.S. Airport Fire Departments

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Use of aqueous film‐forming foam (AFFF) is a source of exposure to per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) for firefighters working in aircraft rescue and firefighting (ARFF) settings. However, data characterizing the association between serum PFAS concentrations and exposure risk factors for ARFF firefighters are limited ...

Comparing the efficacy of dextrose, mannitol, and saline solutions in male rabbits' chemical castration

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrated that a single bilateral intra‐testicular injection of 50% dextrose (Group A) and 20% mannitol (Group B) solutions cannot serve as chemical sterilizing agents in male rabbits. However, intra‐testicular injection of 0.9% saline (Group C) significantly reduced the seminiferous tubule quality (STQ), seminiferous tubule maturity (STM),

Tooth eruption status and bite force determine dental microwear texture gradients in albino rats (Rattus norvegicus forma domestica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...
