Independent Avian Epigenetic Clocks for Ageing and Development
ABSTRACT Information on individual age is a fundamental aspect in many ecological and evolutionary studies. However, accurate and non‐lethal methods that can be applied to estimate the age of wild animals are often absent. Furthermore, since the process of ageing is accompanied by a physical decline and the deterioration of biological functions, the ...

BRD9 inhibition as potential treatment option for testicular germ cell tumors
Abstract Background Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the predominant tumor in younger males. Usually, 5‐year survival rates are quite high, but 15–20% of patients with metastatic non‐seminomas are resistant to standard cisplatin‐based therapy.

Differences in pain, bleeding, and satisfaction during medical abortion at very early gestations
Very early medical abortion that is, abortion before confirmation of pregnancy location, is both safe and efficient. Compared to medical abortion after ultrasound visualization of an embryo, it is associated with less pain, shorter bleeding duration, and higher satisfaction. Thus, also patient‐oriented outcomes favor early abortion treatment.

Abstract Egg laying begins with the orderly development of follicles in the chicken ovaries and transportation through the oviduct with deposition of nutrients until the eggs are produced. However, the ovarian follicles and oviduct morphology of Lohmann Brown and Potchefstroom Koekoek laying hens have not yet been studied.
