Modulation of Eimeria spp. parasite load on productivity parameters in lambs fed with babassu byproduct.

This study investigated the modulation of Eimeria spp. parasite load and its impact on productivity parameters in lambs fed varying levels of babassu by-product (BBP). Twenty-four Dorper × Santa Inês lambs naturally infected with Eimeria spp.

Decoding user experience in exergames: A systematic scoping review of assessment methods.

Exergames, which blend physical activity with digital gaming, are increasingly recognized for their potential to boost user engagement in exercise. The user perception of these games plays a critical role in sustaining this engagement. Therefore, understanding and effectively assessing user experience (UX) in exergames is crucial to maximizing their appeal and effectiveness.

Quercetin Reduces the Susceptibility to Cardiac Reperfusion Arrhythmias in Ovariectomized Rats.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally. Decrease in female sex hormones during menopause increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, mainly ischemic heart disease (IHD). Quercetin, a flavonoid, has beneficial properties in CVDs due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic effects.

Jacob Fidelis Ackermann (1765-1815): pioneer in the anatomical description of basilar invagination.

Jacob Fidelis Ackermann was a German Medical Doctor born in 1765 in the city of Rüdesheim. Between 1789 and 1815 years he was professor of medicine at the universities of Mainz and Heidelberg, teaching the disciplines of anatomy, physiology, botany, and natural history. In his famous work on basilar invagination, Ackermann described and illustrated the cranial base flattening in two skulls from Italy.

Morphometric Investigation of a Species Complex in Section Series (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae).

series was created by Barneby in 1991, embracing species diagnosed by their small subshrubby habit and the presence of gland-tipped setae and trimerous flowers. Most species are endemic to Northeastern Brazil, and some possess characters deemed diagnostic which nonetheless overlap, making species identification difficult. Our study aimed to test species circumscriptions and sets of characters that could be applied to unequivocally distinguish the species.
