Equine vegetative endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis due to refractory Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae infection

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae was the causative agent of vegetative endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis in a 24‐year‐old Irish draught gelding that presented with prolonged history of intermittent pyrexia and tachycardia. Clinical investigations revealed persistently reduced neck mobility, tachydysrhythmia and episodic pyrexia up to 41°C ...

Circadian rhythms of metabolite abundance in Drosophila are largely driven by time of feeding

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Circadian clocks exist in the brain and peripheral tissues such as the Drosophila fat body. Single‐nuclei transcriptomics reveal that the fat body clock generates time‐of‐day differences in metabolic gene transcription, which may also be indirectly controlled by brain clocks.

Genetic Determination of Maternal Behaviour in Pigs

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In sows, maternal behaviour is a commercially important trait which affects sow and piglet welfare and the quality and safety of human‐animal interactions, especially if free farrowing of sows without crates is in place. The aim of this study was to evaluate maternal behaviour and to estimate its quantitative genetic parameters in Swiss ...

Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

A Review of Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs for Food‐Producing Animals With a Focus on Potential Applications for Farmed Finfish

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In finfish aquaculture, there are several inflammatory diseases impacting productivity and animal welfare, however there are limited options available to veterinarians to treat inflammation and pain in fish. Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in terrestrial animals raised for human consumption to treat a range of ...

Histological analysis of incremental markings and crown growth characteristics in mandibular first molars of the red fox, Vulpes vulpes (Canidae, Mammalia)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This paper histologically analyzed incremental markings in dental enamel of red fox and grey wolf. Our results demonstrate that previous studies have misidentified these markings, which led to miscalculation of dental growth parameters. Abstract The present study analyzed incremental markings in the enamel of eight mandibular first molars (M1) of red ...

Morphofunctional effects of captivity on the microanatomy of the talus bone in a wild ungulate (Sus scrofa)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Our study explores the plastic changes induced by captivity on the microanatomy of the talus of wild boars, revealing denser bone with tighter trabecular networks but a lower relative maximum thickness of compact bone. These plastic adaptations can serve to detect early processes of domestication in the archaeological record.

Entangled Foodways and Livelihood Pathways: Cinnamon, State Interventions, and Everyday Life in Hmong Communities of Northern Vietnam

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The agroecological practices of ethnic minority farmers in Vietnam's northern uplands are being reshaped by intersecting pressures of land‐use reform, market integration, and state‐backed crop promotion. Among Hmong communities in the south of Lào Cai Province (former Yên Bái Province) cinnamon was once valued primarily for its medicinal ...
