Birds are one of the most diverse groups among terrestrial vertebrates. They evolved from theropod dinosaurs, are closely related to the sauropsid group and separated from crocodiles about 240 million years ago. According to the IUCN, 12% of bird populations are threatened with potential extinction.

Egg quality traits are economically important in the poultry industry. To explore the genetic architecture and identify potential candidate genes, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed for 13 egg quality traits using data from whole-genome sequencing of 299 Longyan Shan-ma female ducks, including 12 quantitative traits and one qualitative trait, eggshell color (ESC; white, light green, green). From estimation of pedigree genetic parameters, heritability (h) ranged from 0.

Diabetes affects metabolism and metabolite concentrations in multiple organs. Previous preclinical studies have shown that receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE, gene symbol Ager) and its cytoplasmic domain binding partner, Diaphanous-1 (DIAPH1), are key mediators of diabetic micro- and macro-vascular complications. In this study, we used H-Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) and chemical shift encoded (CSE) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to investigate the metabolite and water-fat fraction in the heart and hind limb muscle in a murine model of type 1 diabetes (T1D) and to determine if the metabolite changes in the heart and hind limb are influenced by (a) deletion of Ager or Diaph1 and (b) pharmacological blockade of RAGE-DIAPH1 interaction in mice.

Background: Studying complete hospital care episodes from register data, for instance when assessing length of stay, discharges and readmissions, can cause methodological difficulties due to the lack of a contact linkage identifier. We aimed to develop an algorithm combining sequential attendance contacts in the Danish National Patient Register (DNPR) into hospital care episodes, spanning the entire duration and all contacts from hospital arrival to departure.
Methods: The algorithm was developed under the consensus of experts from research institutions across Denmark.
