A novel thermo-sensitive micelle contrast agent and its enhancement of MRI contrast with temperature are reported. The morphology changes sharply near 37 °C, resulting in a significant amplification of the CEST signal. This enables detection of small changes in body temperature.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different grinding sieve openings (SO), conditioning temperatures (CTP), and conditioning times (CTM) on feed processing performance, growth performance, meat quality, and serum biochemical indices of broiler chickens fed a diet in which 50 % of corn was replaced with aged paddy rice. A total of 960 white-feathered broiler chickens were randomly divided into 8 groups, with the experiment designed to test 2 SO sizes (2.0 mm and 2.

Estuaries are dynamic environments that provide vital habitat to ecologically and commercially important bivalves. In some cases, freshwater tributaries can introduce cyanobacteria and associated cyanotoxins into estuaries that may subsequently accumulate in estuarine bivalves. Temporarily open/closed estuaries (TOCEs), which only experience tidal input for limited periods of time, may be particularly vulnerable to the accumulation of cyanotoxins in bivalves as they can be subject to freshwater input without tidal flushing and may experience lower salinities and cyanobacterial blooms.

The primary goal of captive primate management is to ensure optimal health and welfare of the animals in our care. Given that the gut microbiome interacts closely with host metabolism, immunity, and even cognition, it represents a potentially powerful tool for identifying subtle changes in health status across a range of body systems simultaneously. However, thus far, it has not been widely tested or implemented as a monitoring tool.

Objective: To explore the management effect of a chain temperature management checklist in preventing hypothermia in patients undergoing urological robotic surgery during the perioperative period.
Methods: A total of 152 patients undergoing urological robotic surgery were enrolled in this study between March and September 2021 and again between March and September 2022. All patients were randomly divided into the control group (n = 76) and the intervention group (n = 76).

Thermal stress in marine environments is likely to become more widespread in marine environments. Understanding age-related physiological adaptations to thermal stress is critically important for predicting the impacts of global climate change on marine biodiversity. The typical burrowing bivalve, Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum, was selected to explore molecular and physiological responses to thermal stress and how the effects varied with ages (juvenile VS.
