Conservation and sustainable utilization of Nigerian ornamental fishes [PDF]
The paper assessed qualitatively the threat status of nigerian freshwater fishes that are presently being exported and those that have potential in aquarium trade using such criteria as rarity, size at maturity, mode of reproduction, human population ...

THE RESPIRATION OF PUFFER FISH
1. A method is described for studying environmental factors which affect the respiration of fishes.2. An increase in temperature of water surrounding puffer fishes is followed by increased oxygen consumption by the fishes, a greater quantity of water pumped through the branchial chamber, and a faster respiratory rhythm.

The effect of higher versus lower wattage e‐cigarettes on smoking: A randomized controlled trial
Abstract Aims To assess whether higher wattage e‐cigarettes (HWe), with improved nicotine delivery, enhance complete substitution compared with lower wattage e‐cigarettes (LWe) and whether complete switching lowers exposure to a cigarette‐derived lung carcinogen, using urinary 4‐(methylnitrosamino)‐1‐(3‐pyridyl)‐1‐butanol (NNAL) as a biomarker.

Rapid clinical relief of allergy symptoms during 18 months of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) for house dust mite (HDM) is associated with increased serum IgE, IgG2, and IgG4 to Der p 1 and Der p 2. Der p 1 and Der p 2 specific Type 2 memory B cells are expanded at 4 months and 12 months of SLIT, with increased expression of CD29 and IgG4.

High‐dose birch‐extract nasal challenge induced synchronous peaks at 4 weeks in serum specific IgE (sIgE) and basophil sensitivity. Mast cell sensitivity via tSPT and sIgG1 and sIgG4 responses peaked later, at 6–8 weeks. Preseasonal allergen exposure attenuated seasonal sIgE increase and prevented further rise in tSPT sensitivity.

Antifouling activity of crude extracts isolated from two Red Sea puffer fishes
Crude extracts were isolated from the ovary and mucus of the puffer fish Amblyrhynchotes hypselogenion and Lagocephalus sceleratus. The crude toxin extracts (from the ovaries of L.

Analysis of Tetrodotoxin in Puffer-fish by LC/MS.
A simple and reliable method using liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS) for the analysis of tetrodotoxin in puffer-fish was developed. Tetrodotoxin in puffer-fish was extracted with 0.1% acetic acid by heating in a boiling water bath, and the extracts were cleaned up on a Bond Elut C18 (500 mg) cartridge.

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐
