Interactions between people and wildlife are increasing as development encroaches on natural habitats. Concurrently, young mammals suspected to be orphans are brought to wildlife rehabilitation centers. Four common orphaned mammals presented to rehabilitation facilities in North America are the Virginia opossum ( Didelphis virginiana , DIVI), common raccoon ( Procyon lotor , PRLO), eastern gray squirrel ( Sciurus carolinensis...

Due to their heterogeneous landscape structure, extensively managed temperate silvopastoral systems provide multiple ecosystem services such as climate-resilient livestock production and carbon sequestration. Main habitat types within these landscapes (open pastures, solitary trees, shrubby patches, and adjacent second-growth forests) form an interconnected dynamic network with state transitions driven by secondary succession...

Cancer remains a major global health challenge, and growing evidence suggests that physical activity is a key modifiable factor that may improve survival outcomes in cancer patients. However, a comprehensive, large-scale synthesis of the effects of post-diagnosis physical activity across multiple cancer types remains lacking. This meta-analysis aims to systematically evaluate the association between physical activity and survi...

Current European Stroke Organisation (ESO) guidelines recommend extended time window reperfusion therapies (4.5–9 h for thrombolysis, 6–24 h for thrombectomy) based on advanced imaging. However, the workload and clinical benefit of this strategy on a population basis are not known. To determine the caseload, treatment rates, and outcomes in the extended as compared to the standard time windows. All consecutive ischaemic stroke...

Chemical pesticides and fertilizers are used in agricultural production worldwide to prevent damage from plant pathogenic microorganisms, insects, and nematodes, to minimize crop losses and to preserve crop quality. However, the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers can severely pollute soil, water, and air, posing risks to the environment and human health. Consequently, developing new, alternative, environment-friendly m...

Dermocystidiosis in common carp ( Cyprinus carpio L.) as a skin infection in the form of small, pea‐sized bulging nodules is well‐known in Hungary. Its occurrence is sporadic, and the pathogenic effect is generally moderate. Nonetheless, here we report an unusual case of the infection when a mass of dermocystid spore‐filled hyphae‐like cysts formed a large tumour‐like nodule under the skin intruding deeply in the red muscle on...

The abundance of mycoplasma‐like microorganisms seems to be common in the intestinal tract of fish, but their occurrence in other organs can be considered pathological. Isolation of piscine mycoplasmas is essential to prove their virulence. In this study, a total of 100 specimens of nine freshwater fish species collected from natural waters and fish farms were analysed for the prevalence of mycoplasmas in different extraintest...
