Abstract:

Assessing the abundance and densities of highly hunted bird species, such as those from the Columbidae family (pigeons and doves), is essential to developing effective conservation strategies. The presente study sought to investigate multiple Columbidae species populations in three rural areas of Agreste Sergipe (Brazil), assessing whether there is seasonal variation in their abundance and density measures. During one year, linear transects were used to record species richness and abundance, which were then used to calculate species densities. A total of 4,229 columbids belonging to eight spec

Abstract:

Agricultural intensification negatively affects bird communities, and the response of birds to these changes varies from those that survive and increase their populations (disturb-tolerant species) to those that cannot adapt to new conditions and are regionally extinct (disturb-sensitive species). Thus, the present study sought to investigate the bird community in 39 guava orchards in the semiarid region of the state of Sergipe, northeast Brazil. Field observations were made between July and October 2017, through a one-hour visit to each orchard. Samplings were conducted using the MacKinnon’s

These closely related doves are resident birds, and overlap broadly both in daily activity patterns and habitat use; in circumstances like this, segregation in the use of food resources often occurs. It was found that: (a) differences in body dimensions did not account for variations in seed size taken by doves; they all ate seeds in the same size range and they

The systematic position of the genus Microberotha within the family is rather unclear, but the structure of the male genitalia indicates a close association with the subfamily Cyrenoberothinae.

AbstractIntroduction:The First Access for Shock and Trauma (FAST 1) Sternal Intraosseous (IO) System is a vascular access device designed as an alternative to peripheral or central intravenous (IV) cannulation for the treatment of critically ill and injured adults. During the development of the device, key objectives included safety, speed of insertion, and ease of use with minimal training. This study evaluated these characteristics.Methods:Ten experienced paramedics participated in a 90-minute training program for the use of the FAST 1 System at the Paramedic Academy of the Justice Institute

Metaxycheir pacifica, a new chonaphine xystodesmid milliped from Vancouver Island, British Columbia, inhabits decidous spots in the forests along the Pacific Ocean from Bamfield to China Beach Provincial Park. It displays a subcylindrical body, imparted by reduced paranota caudal to segment 4; an acropodite in the form of a broad, open loop; and an acicular prefemoral process with minute subapical barbules. It is segregated from the type species, M. prolata Buckett and Gardner, in northern Idaho, by over 600 km, and is the second western Canadian xystodesmid. The tribe Chonaphini occupies five

Abstract Background Healthcare transition for pediatric patients with chronic gastrointestinal diseases is a coordinated process that requires multidisciplinary collaboration to improve an otherwise challenging time for patients and their families. While this process has been explored in other areas such as inflammatory bowel disease, the transition experience has not been well characterized in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).
