Ordinal Probit Functional Outcome Regression with Application to Computer-Use Behavior in Rhesus Monkeys [PDF]

, 2019
Research in functional regression has made great strides in expanding to non-Gaussian functional outcomes, but exploration of ordinal functional outcomes remains limited. Motivated by a study of computer-use behavior in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta), we introduce the Ordinal Probit Functional Outcome Regression model (OPFOR). OPFOR models can be fit

Primary Splenic Leiomyosarcoma With Metastasis in a Rhesus Monkey (Macaca mulatta). [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Primary mesenchymal tumours of the spleen in non‐human primates are exceedingly rare. We report on a 13‐year‐old female rhesus monkey who had an enlarged liver, spleen and multiple lung masses. Macroscopic, microscopic and immunohistochemical examinations revealed a splenic leiomyosarcoma with widespread metastasis.

B-Virus and Free-Ranging Macaques, Puerto Rico

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
In Puerto Rico, risk for transmission of B-virus from free-ranging rhesus monkeys to humans has become a serious challenge. An incident with an injured rhesus monkey, seropositive for B-virus, resulted in inappropriate administration of antiviral ...

Heterozygote Advantage Probably Maintains Rhesus Factor Blood Group Polymorphism: Ecological Regression Study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Rhesus factor polymorphism has been an evolutionary enigma since its discovery in 1939. Carriers of the rarer allele should be eliminated by selection against Rhesus positive children born to Rhesus negative mothers.

Viscocanalostomy in Rhesus Monkeys [PDF]

Archives of Ophthalmology, 2004
To examine structural changes and aqueous humor outflow after viscocanalostomy in live normal monkey eyes.Viscocanalostomy surgery was performed in 1 eye of each of 4 rhesus monkeys. Outflow facility was determined before and after surgery. All eyes were fixed and examined by light and/or electron microscopy 36 or 63 days postoperatively.Schlemm canal ...

Caloric restriction improves health and survival of rhesus monkeys

Nature Communications, 2017
Caloric restriction (CR) without malnutrition extends lifespan and delays the onset of age-related disorders in most species but its impact in nonhuman primates has been controversial.

A single dose of ChAdOx1 MERS provides protective immunity in rhesus macaques

Science Advances, 2020
Prime-only vaccination with ChAdOx1 MERS protects against HCoV-EMC/2012 in NHP and a variety of MERS-CoV strains in mice. Developing a vaccine to protect against the lethal effects of the many strains of coronavirus is critical given the current global ...
