Prognostic Factors for Patients Under 45 Undergoing Surgery for Colorectal Liver Metastases: A SEER Population‐Based Study

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Colorectal cancer (CRC) has been on the rise in adults younger than 50. Surgical resection is a potentially curative treatment option for patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). The aim of this study was to describe patient and tumor characteristics associated with disease‐specific survival in young patients

Effect of age class on the survivorship and spatial movement patterns of headstarted Texas horned lizards soft‐released into an urban population

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
When compared to resident lizards of the corresponding age class, juvenile headstarted Texas horned lizards soft‐released into an urban population exhibited more favorable responses to short‐term translocation objectives (i.e., daily movement rates, home range sizes, and survival rates) than did conspecifics headstarted to the adult age class ...

Annual survival and resource selection of juvenile male wild turkeys in central Tennessee

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Juvenile male wild turkeys in central Tennessee, USA, selected areas with smaller patch sizes and lower proportions of developed land. Annual survival was 0.73 and decreased as dense land cover such as young and deciduous forest increased and cover types with high visibility decreased. Abstract Documenting juvenile male wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo)

Modeling localized deer removal strategies for managing chronic wasting disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We used an agent‐based model developed for chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Midwestern white‐tailed deer to assess localized deer removal strategies and how local conditions affect management outcomes. Parcel‐based and ring culling were most effective at reducing CWD prevalence and persistence, and transmission was always greater at greater deer ...

Linking distribution and return‐on‐investment models to optimize woody management for prairie grouse in Nebraska

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We modeled prairie grouse abundance across Nebraska and projected future woody encroachment to estimate population losses. By combining predicted gains from woody treatments with avoided losses and treatment costs, we mapped return on investment to identify areas for woody treatments that maximize benefits to greater prairie‐chickens and sharp‐tailed ...
