Successful outcome of open distal interphalangeal joint luxation in equids treated by surgical debridement without internal implantsNARA Subscribed
Introduction The distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) plays a crucial role in the function of the hoof and digit. Dislocations and subluxations in this region are rare and primarily of traumatic origin. Case Report This case report aims to describe two unusual cases of open DIPJ dislocation, including clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, treatment, and long-term follow-up. Both animals presented with open traumatic distal...
Increasing life expectancy has been accompanied by a higher prevalence of age-associated conditions, underscoring the need to better understand biological mechanisms of aging and to identify accessible biomarkers. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid-bilayer vesicles that mediate intercellular communication by transporting proteins, lipids, and regulatory RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs). Here, we investigated whether the...
Sociality and nesting strategy account for non-random associations between bees and their parasitic dipteransNARA Subscribed
Bees (Apoidea: Anthophila) are recorded as common hosts of a diverse array of parasitic Diptera species, but information is widely scattered across the literature, limiting our knowledge of global bee-dipteran association patterns. Here, we retrieved published information on 453 bee-dipteran associations to test the role of life-history traits of hosts and parasites on such patterns. The 13 families and 37 genera of Diptera as...
Peripheral microRNA signature in genetic frontotemporal dementia—findings from the GENFI initiativeNARA Subscribed
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by significant clinical and genetic heterogeneity, with approximately 40% of cases linked to hereditary genetic mutations, including MAPT , GRN , and C9ORF72 . Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of cellular processes related to neurodegeneration and as potential biomarkers for FTD. However, their relevance in presymptomatic stag...
Functional diversity of Brazilian bees: revealing the unique patterns of the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Bees are essential for ecosystem functioning, pollinating many wild and crop plant species. Predicting which species are most vulnerable to global changes, and how their loss may impact ecosystems and human well-being, is critical. Comprehensive information on bee response and effect traits is fundamental to these assessments. However, the Raunkiærian shortfall—insufficient trait data—remains significant for bees, particularly...
Impact of environmental gradients on juvenile coral demography across the Great Barrier Reef and Torres StraitNARA Subscribed
Demographic rates of juvenile corals are critical to reef recovery, yet their variation across environmental gradients remains understudied. Over three years, we assessed juvenile coral vital rates across the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) and Torres Strait (TS), spanning 14° latitude and diverse inshore to offshore environments. Environmental conditions varied, with annual temperatures ranging 24–28 °C, high turbidity in the southe...
