General practice veterinarians’ attitudes towards avian influenza: A COM‐B analysis of barriers to backyard poultry treatment

Veterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 6, Page e237-e247, 14/21 March 2026.
Abstract Background The recent expansion of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 to non‐avian species in the United States has intensified public health‐related concerns. In Great Britain, low veterinarian confidence in seeing and treating birds creates potential barriers to HPAI diagnosis and reporting.

The Effects of Human Presence, Restraint, and Stressed Neighbors on Corticosterone Levels in Domesticated Budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus)

Zoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 37-45, January/February 2026.
Female budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) did not significantly elevate their plasma corticosterone levels in response to human presence at the beginning of the experiment. However, plasma corticosterone was significantly elevated by restraint stress, the return of a neighbor that received restraint stress, and human presence at the end of the ...

Distinct 5′ UTR Requirements for Translation of the Bicistronic X/P mRNA Among Avian Orthobornaviruses

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 2, Page 80-90, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Orthobornaviruses express X and the phosphoprotein (P) from a bicistronic X/P mRNA, and these proteins regulate polymerase activity. In mammalian orthobornaviruses, the 5′ untranslated region (5′ UTR) of the X/P mRNA controls the translational balance between X and P and thereby promotes efficient replication.

Evaluation of Intraosseous Excretory Urography Using Iodixanol for Renal Imaging in Budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus)

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study demonstrates that intraosseous injection of iodixanol into the proximal tibiotarsal bone provides a reliable, safe, and practical method for diagnostic excretory urography in budgerigars. The technique offers clear visualisation of renal structures and can be an alternative when intravenous access is limited in avian patients.

Screening of antigenemia and isolation of Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii from cloaca and crop of birds in the state of Paraná, Brazil Antigenemia e tentativa de isolamento de Cryptococcus neoformans e C. gattii a partir da cloaca e inglúvio de aves no Estado do Paraná

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2008
Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii are associated with dry bird excreta but rarely recovered from birds' digestive tract. The objective of the present study was (1) to verify the existence of C. neoformans and C.

Factors impacting the complexity of the leporid intracranial joint

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 1, Page 28-39, January 2026.
Anatomy of the intracranial joint and the 2D semi‐landmarks used to capture complexity in the intracranial joint. (a) The intracranial joint can be seen here (in red) between the parietal and occipital dorsally and the basioccipital and basisphenoid ventrally. In hares (as in this figure) the interparietals are fused to obliteration.
