Monitoring Animal Populations With Cameras Using Open, Multistate, N-Mixture Models.

Remote cameras have become a mainstream tool for studying wildlife populations. For species whose developmental stages or states are identifiable in photographs, there are opportunities for tracking population changes and estimating demographic rates. Recent developments in hierarchical models allow for the estimation of ecological states and rates over time for unmarked animals whose states are known.

Switching from dupilumab to tralokinumab or Janus kinase inhibitors in cases of ocular and/or facial adverse events in patients with atopic dermatitis: a multicenter retrospective study.

Background: Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) may discontinue dupilumab owing to dupilumab-induced ocular adverse events (DOAEs) or dupilumab-induced facial redness (DFR).

Objective: To evaluate DOAE and DFR outcomes after switching to tralokinumab or Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi).

Methods: This retrospective study included 106 patients discontinuing dupilumab because of DOAEs and/or DFR.

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery in Immediate DIEP Flap Breast Reconstruction: Reducing Length of Stay and Opioid Use.

To improve patient outcomes amid reduced healthcare resources during the COVID-19 pandemic, a single Canadian cancer center implemented an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol for autologous DIEP flap breast reconstruction. This retrospective cohort study included 100 consecutive patients undergoing microsurgical breast reconstruction with DIEP flaps using the ERAS protocol and 100 patients using a standard protocol. Primary outcomes were the hospital length of stay and opioid use.

Exposure to an environmentally representative mixture of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) alters zebrafish neuromuscular development.

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are a prevalent group of brominated flame retardants (BFRs) added to several products such as electronics, plastics, and textiles to reduce their flammability. They are reported as endocrine disruptors and neurodevelopmental toxicants that can accumulate in human and wildlife tissues, thus making their ability to leach out of products into the environment a great cause for concern. In this study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos and larvae were exposed to a wide concentration range (1.
