The importance of color and body size for reproductive decision making by males and females of the giant river prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man, 1879) (Decapoda, Caridea, Palaemonidae).

The selection and expression of conspicuous colorations in animals is often related to anti-predation strategies and sociosexual communication. The giant river prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man, 1879) is a species with three male morphotypes that vary in claws' coloration and the size of the animals. It has been suggested that male reproductive quality might be associated to their coloration, but evidence is still conflicting.

Could CGRP mAbs for migraine trigger rheumatoid arthritis? Insights from a case report.

Background: Case reports suggest that calcitonin gene-related peptide monoclonal antibodies (CGRP mAbs) may trigger inflammatory flares in patients with autoimmune diseases.

Case Description: A 56-year-old woman with a history of severe migraines, experienced improvement in migraine frequency and intensity after starting fremanezumab 225 mg monthly. However, three months into treatment, she developed symmetric inflammatory polyarthralgias.

Evaluation of postoperative intracranial pressure in patients with radiological diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension.

Objective: This study aimed to assess postoperative intracranial pressure in patients with clinical and/or radiological features of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) undergoing endoscopic endonasal surgery for primary cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak repair.

Methods: Data was prospectively collected from 9 patients diagnosed with CSF nasal leaks who underwent corrective endonasal surgery between January 1, 2021, and October 31, 2022. Postoperative intracranial pressure was measured via lumbar puncture at least one month after surgery.

Drug-Coated Balloons in Autologous Vein Peripheral-Distal Bypass Graft Maintenance: Advancements and Potential Impact.

Introduction: Initial surgical revascularization has a recognized primary role in patients with critical limb-threatening ischemia with a high-quality great saphenous vein for conduit. However, approximately one-third of lower extremity vein grafts develop lesions threatening graft patency. Traditional treatments have limitations, highlighting the need for innovative solutions.

How does the adoption of nutritional plans influence the performance of meat quail during the growth phase in hot environments?

The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of different nutritional plans on meat quails subjected to heat stress. A total of 324 quails male European quails () were used, with an average initial weight of 121.48 g ± 3.
