Lactation, Childrearing, and Gender Justice

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, I discuss the significance of early infant feeding choices for the goal of gender justice. Focusing on human lactation practices, I identify Exclusive Gestational Nursing (EGN) as the norm in advanced industrial societies, which creates the expectation and permission for gestators, and only gestators, to nurse children, and ...

Bringing the Lab to the Field: Exploring Water‐Borne Corticosterone as a Physiological Indicator in Captive and Wild Common Frog Larvae (Rana temporaria)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assessing physiological condition in wild populations is important for understanding how environmental variation shapes organismal performance. Water‐borne corticosterone (WB‐CORT) sampling shows promise for studying amphibian stress physiology, but its ecological relevance and limitations require evaluation, particularly when methods ...

Mapping the Landscape of Over‐Scanning in CT Imaging: A Scoping Review

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Over‐scanning in CT is highly prevalent and contributes to unnecessary radiation exposure, with notable impact on radiosensitive organs. Standardised protocols and AI‐assisted planning show strong potential to optimise scan range and reduce excess dose.

A comparative evaluation of effect on water sorption and solubility of a temporary soft denture liner material when stored either in distilled water, 5.25% sodium hypochlorite or artificial saliva: An in vitro study

open access: yesThe Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 2016
Introduction: Soft denture liners have a key role in modern removable prosthodontics since they restore health to inflamed and abused mucosa by redistribution of forces transmitted to the edentulous ridges. The most common problems encountered using soft

Association between xerostomia and peri‐implant health: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dental implants are a long‐term and reliable solution to replace missing dentition, but subject to different patient‐related and biological changes that could alter its success. Xerostomia, or the alteration of the normal salivary flow, can impair oral function and potentially affect the success of any treatment, including implant ...
