Article Synopsis
- The terrestrial semislug genus, which belongs to the Helicarionidae family, includes nine species found in Thailand and Myanmar, with two species based solely on shell characteristics.
- The taxonomy of these species is discussed using comparative morphology, leading to revised descriptions for four existing species, and the reclassification of another species into this genus.
- Two new species, Pholyotha & Panha, sp. nov., are introduced, and unique shell and genital features are highlighted as distinguishing factors, with only one species lacking a dart apparatus.
Article Synopsis
- * A multicenter trial in France will test a simulation-based training program for pediatric cardiology trainees to enhance their communication skills during diagnostic counseling.
- * The study will evaluate improvements in communication, empathy, and anxiety levels using video assessments, comparing outcomes between those who underwent simulation training and a control group.
The patent ductus arteriosus is a very common condition in preterm infants, and a hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus increases morbidity and mortality in these vulnerable patients. However, despite numerous randomized controlled trials, there is no consensus regarding management. Medical therapy is typically offered as first-line treatment, although it yields limited success and carries the potential for severe adverse events.

Nine species are re-described based on recently collected specimens, and two new species, Man & Panha, from Mandalay Region and Man & Panha, from Shan State are introduced. The genitalia and radula of was studied for the first time.

- Developed a flexible model for estimating upper limit populations of long-tailed macaques using camera trap images and habitat preference mapping.
- The model combines environmental data, GPS data, and direct sightings to produce estimated population numbers, optimized through a parameter representing inquisitiveness.
- Results indicate that long-tailed macaque populations are up to 80% smaller than expected, highlighting the model's accuracy and potential as a noninvasive tool for wildlife conservation across species.
