Talking tails : quantifying the development of tail biting in pigs [PDF]

, 2010
Tail biting is an adverse behaviour characterised by manipulation of a pig’s tail by another pig resulting in tail damage and a possible tail biting outbreak. Tail biting is a common problem in the pig husbandry causing economic losses and reduced animal

Characteristics of biter and victim piglets apparent before a tail biting outbreak [PDF]

, 2011
Little is known about the characteristics of biters and victims before the appearance of a tail-biting outbreak in groups of pigs. This study aimed to characterise biters and victims (according to gender and performance) and to quantify their behavioural

Fibrosarcoma Originating in the Tail of a Cat

Clinical Case Reports
Radiographic–pathologic correlation is essential for accurate diagnosis of skeletal tumors. Clinicians are encouraged to submit radiographic or CT images together with biopsy or cytological samples from bone lesions to facilitate accurate interpretation.

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Late-season corn stalk nitrate measurements across the US Midwest from 2006 to 2018

Scientific Data, 2023
The late-season Corn Stalk Nitrate Test (CSNT) is a well-known tool to help evaluate the after-the-fact performance of nitrogen management. The CSNT has the unique ability to distinguish between optimal and excessive corn nitrogen status, which makes it ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Effects of Breeding for Short‐Tailedness in Sheep on Parameters of Reproduction and Lamb Development

Veterinary Medicine and Science
Background Sheep's tail docking is a widespread practice, which is banned or critically discussed in some countries to improve animal welfare. Objective The aim was to determine the influence of breeding for short‐tailedness (ST) or long‐tailedness (LT ...
