Anxiolytic effects of diazepam in Trinidadian guppies exposed to chemical cues indicating predation risk

Author(s): Crane AL; Feyten LEA; Brusseau AJP; Dumaresq Synnott F; Ramnarine IW; Ferrari MCO; Brown GE;

The fear of predation is pervasive among vertebrate prey species, being characterized by neurobiological and behavioral changes induced by risk exposure. To understand the acquisition and attenuation of fearful phenotypes, such as dimensions of posttraumatic stress, researchers often use animal m ...

Development and Application of Children s Sex- and Age-Specific Fat-Mass and Muscle-Mass Reference Curves From Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Data for Predicting Cardiometabolic Risk

Author(s): Saputra ST; Van Hulst A; Henderson M; Brugiapaglia S; Faustini C; Kakinami L;

Background: A dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-derived phenotype classification based on fat mass and muscle mass has been developed for adults. We extended this to a paediatric population. Methods: Children's (= 17 years) DXA data in NHANES (n = 6120) were used to generate sex- and age-specific deciles of appendicular skeletal muscle mass inde ...

Impact of different acute low back pain definitions on the predictors and on the risk of transition to chronic low back pain: a prospective longitudinal cohort study

Author(s): Osagie RO; Tufa I; Angarita-Fonseca A; Pagé MG; Lacasse A; Stone LS; Rainville P; Roy M; Tétreault P; Fortin M; Léonard G; Massé-Alarie H; Roy JS; Grant AV; Meloto CB;

Inconsistencies in the identification of predictors for the transition from acute low back pain (aLBP) to chronic LBP (cLBP) may be attributed to the varying definitions of aLBP used in different studies. We investigated how adopting different aLBP definitions affects the set of predictors and th ...

A practical approach for preventing dispersion of infection disease in naturally ventilated room

Author(s): Ren C; Cao SJ; Haghighat F;

During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic period, the airborne transmission of viruses has raised widespread concern as daily activities are resumed in public buildings. It is essential to develop mitigation strategies of infection disease transmission (e.g., increase of ventilation rate) in different scenarios to reduce the infection risk. For classrooms in s ...

Global antibiotic hotspots and risks: A One Health assessment

Author(s): Yan B; Huang F; Ying J; Zhou D; Norouzi S; Zhang X; Wang B; Liu F;

Antibiotics are increasingly prevalent in global environments, driving antimicrobial resistance and disrupting microbial cycling. These impacts pose threats to human, animal, and environmental health. Therefore, addressing this emergent issue necessitates a One Health framework that integrates these interconnected dimensions. Here we systematically review ...

Antipredator decisions of male Trinidadian guppies ( em Poecilia reticulata /em ) depend on social cues from females

Author(s): Brusseau AJP; Feyten LEA; Crane AL; Ramnarine IW; Ferrari MCO; Brown GE;

Many prey species rely on publicly available personal and social information regarding local predation threats to assess risks and make context-appropriate behavioral decisions. However, in sexually dimorphic species, males and females are expected to differ in the perceived costs and/or benefits associated with predator avoidance decisions. Recent studie ...

Accidents involving lithium-ion batteries in non-application stages: incident characteristics, environmental impacts, and response strategies

Author(s): Wang Z; Huang G; Chen Z; An C;

With the rapid growth of electric vehicle adoption, the demand for lithium-ion batteries has surged, highlighting the importance of understanding the associated risks, particularly in non-application stages such as transportation, storage, assembly, and disposal. This review explores the types and causes of lithium-ion battery accidents, categorizing them ...

Developmental exposure to the physical and social world and responses to risk among college students from four cultural contexts

Author(s): Chentsova-Dutton Y; Gürcan-Yildirim D; Wu J; Zakharov I; Ryder AG;

What are the psychological implications of developmental exposure to the physical and social environment of one's community, with its threats and rewards? The cultural shaping of enacted autonomy-or self-reliance in an environment that includes real and perceived threats-has largely been overlooked despite historical changes in this domain. Responses ...

Sex and APOE4-specific links between cardiometabolic risk factors and white matter alterations in individuals with a family history of Alzheimer s disease

Author(s): Tremblay SA; Nathan Spreng R; Wearn A; Alasmar Z; Pirhadi A; Tardif CL; Chakravarty MM; Villeneuve S; Leppert IR; Carbonell F; Medina YI; Steele CJ; Gauthier CJ;

Early detection of pathological changes in Alzheimer's disease (AD) has garnered significant attention in the last few decades as interventions aiming to prevent progression will likely be most effective when initiated early. White matter (WM) alterations are among the earliest changes in AD, ...

Significant wins and their impacts: Predictors of problem gambling in French and Polish national samples

Author(s): Lelonek-Kuleta B; Tovar ML; Bartczuk RP; Costes JM;

Aim: We examined the role of significant win experiences alongside psychosocial factors in the risk of problem gambling. Participants: The study involved adult pure-chance gamblers from representative Polish (n = 3143) and French samples (n = 5692). Measurements: The questionnaire encompassed socio-demographic details, gambling behaviours, significant w ...
