Quantitative assessment of gait alterations and variability in sulky‐driven Standardbred trotters after a standardised exercise test

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Assessment of equine metabolic and locomotory responses to quantified levels of physical exercise is needed to support the creation of tailored protocols for optimal training adaptation. The locomotory response to exercise in horses is not fully understood.

The effect of full‐limb flexion tests on static and dynamic muscle activity and locomotion asymmetry in owner‐sound horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Flexion tests are commonly used in equine locomotion examinations to identify underlying locomotor issues, yet their neuromuscular effects remain poorly understood. Response variability raises concerns about their clinical value in lameness assessments and pre‐purchase evaluations.

Characterisation of a cold‐adapted, thermostable glucokinase from psychrophilic Pseudoalteromonas sp. AS‐131 reveals how the enzyme achieves high thermal stability without loss of cold adaptation

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
We investigated glucokinase from the psychrophilic Pseudoalteromonas sp. AS‐131 (PsGK), which was isolated from the Antarctic Ocean. Biochemical studies revealed that PsGK is a cold‐adapted enzyme with high thermal stability, in contrast to general cold‐adapted enzymes, which have low thermal stability.

Prevalence and Implications of “Must‐Kill” Angling Regulations for the Management of Invasive Fishes

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater biodiversity is increasingly threatened by invasive species, which can disrupt native fish populations and the fisheries they support. Must‐kill regulations, which prohibit the live release of invasive fish caught by recreational anglers, are a management strategy that can be implemented to limit the negative effects of invasive ...

The Hepatic Steatosis Diagnostic Performance Using Attenuation Imaging With the Magnetic Resonance Imaging‐Based Proton Density Fat Fraction as the Reference Standard: A Large, Prospective, Multicenter Cohort Study in Japan

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
In a multicenter cohort of 1059 patients, attenuation imaging (ATI) showed good diagnostic performance and strong correlation with MRI‐PDFF, supporting its value as a noninvasive method for evaluating hepatic steatosis. ABSTRACT Background Attenuation imaging (ATI) is used for the noninvasive diagnosis of hepatic steatosis (HS) based on the ultrasound ...
