Factors such as elevation, season, and micro-environment may introduce bias and should be evaluated to minimize potential errors. Our findings revealed the significant impacts of altitude and season on the number of cameras and monitoring duration required in camera trap surveys. The optimal strategy for monitoring mammals is to increase the number of cameras and decrease the sampling period at lower elevations, to add more cameras and extend the sampling time during the dry season due to seasonal differences in capture ratio and species richness. Additionally, camera trap sites should be selected based on factors such as human disturbance, available resources, and concealment.

Human-wildlife conflict is one of the important research topics in biodiversity and conservation. Understanding the status of wildlife resources and its conflict with human could promote the sustainable protection and management of wildlife. Wild boar () is one of the most widely distributed ungulates in the world, with an increasing population and recently rising levels of conflict with human.

Background: Arm-lifting movements (shoulder flexion) are essential for upper extremity rehabilitation after a stroke. Abnormal flexor synergy (elbow flexion) is frequently observed during shoulder flexion, impeding functional improvement. However, no quantitative method exists for assessing abnormal flexor synergy.

In South Texas, vehicle collisions have been a major mortality source for the endangered ocelot (). To mitigate threats to this species, eight WCS, along with associated fencing, were strategically placed along Farm-to-Market Road 106 (FM106), which passes through ocelot habitat.

Objective: This study aimed to compare dental plaque scores measured using clinical examination and different imaging methods.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-eight volunteers were included in the study and divided into two groups according to DMFT (D: Decayed, M: Missing, F: Filling, T: Teeth) scores (under 3 and over 10). Dental plaque on anterior labial surfaces' was scored using clinical visual examination with/without staining and different imaging systems (Digital photography, intraoral digital scanning, FluoreCam).
Prediction of Tidal Volume in Newborns Through a Novel Three-Dimensional Model: A Viability Study.

Introduction: Although noninvasive monitoring through quantifying rib cage movement has been useful in serial assessment of pulmonary function in newborns, measuring tidal volume (TV) is commonly performed invasively. As it is the most basic measure of pulmonary function, expanding its assessment to a noninvasive measure can contribute to clinical findings and interpretations in neonatal clinical practice.
Objective: (1) Create a noninvasive measurement tool for TV for neonatal clinical use; (2) Evaluate the agreement between measured TV and predicted TV.
