TURTLES

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2007
Juvenile turtles have the capacity to eat more than 500 3rd and 4th instar mosquitos per day. Keeping one turtle in each water-storage tank during field trials for a dengue-control project in Honduras eliminated all mosquito production from the tanks. In Louisiana, keeping turtles in residential roadside ditches polluted by septic-tank effluent reduced

Evaluating a ballistocardiography derived respiratory rate algorithm through comprehensive clinical validation across multiple settings

Scientific Reports
Continuous respiratory rate (RR) monitoring is key for early deterioration detection, but conventional methods require contact. Ballistocardiography (BCG) offers an unobtrusive alternative using an under-mattress sensor.
