Preliminary estimates of the abundance and fidelity of dolphins associating with a demersal trawl fishery
Scientific Reports, 7(1).
MeSH headings : Animals; Australia; Conservation of Natural Resources; Dolphins / physiology; Fisheries; Population Dynamics; Surveys and Questionnaires

Identification of a Campylobacter coli methyltransferase targeting adenines at GATC sites
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 364(7).
MeSH headings : Adenine / metabolism; Animals; Campylobacter coli / enzymology; Campylobacter coli / genetics; Cattle; DNA Methylation; Genome, Bacterial; Humans; Methyltransferases / genetics; Methyltransferases / isolation & purification; Methyltransferases / metabolism; Nucleotide Motifs; Open Reading Frames; Sequence Analysis / methods
TL;DR:
To determine whether ORF0059 mediated MboI resistance and hence encoded a putative N6‐adenine DNA methyltransferase, the gene was cloned immediately upstream of a chloramphenicol resistance cassette (cat) and a PCR fragment harboring ORF 0059‐cat was transformed into C. coli 11601, suggesting a direct role of this gene in methylation of adenines at GATC sites.

Greater Coronary Heart Disease Risk With Lower Intensity and Longer Duration Smoking Compared With Higher Intensity and Shorter Duration Smoking: Congruent Results Across Diverse Cohorts
NICOTINE & TOBACCO RESEARCH, 19(7), 817–825.
MeSH headings : Aged; Cohort Studies; Coronary Disease / epidemiology; Coronary Disease / mortality; Double-Blind Method; Finland / epidemiology; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Risk Factors; Smoking / epidemiology; Smoking Cessation / methods; Time Factors; Tobacco Products / statistics & numerical data
TL;DR:
In inverse smoking intensity effects in multiple cohorts with differing smoking patterns and other characteristics are observed, suggesting a common underlying phenomenon that offers clues to better understanding biological mechanisms and reinforces the importance of cessation rather than smoking less to reduce CHD risk.

Frontal Sinus Development and Juvenile Age Estimation
ANATOMICAL RECORD-ADVANCES IN INTEGRATIVE ANATOMY AND EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY, 300(9), 1609–1617.
author keywords: frontal sinus; development; age estimation; juvenile
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Age Determination by Skeleton; Child; Child, Preschool; Female; Frontal Sinus / diagnostic imaging; Frontal Sinus / growth & development; Humans; Infant; Male; Racial Groups
TL;DR:
The results of the logistic regression suggest that developmental phase is an accurate indicator of age (P <.0001), however, the age ranges can be quite wide and should be utilized alongside other established methods of age estimation.

Experimental winter warming modifies thermal performance and primes acorn ants for warm weather
JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY, 100, 77–81.
author keywords: Climate change; Experimental climate warming; Running speed; Ants; Phenotypic plasticity
MeSH headings : Animals; Ants / physiology; Climate Change; Hot Temperature; Motor Activity; Random Allocation; Seasons; Weather
TL;DR:
Evidence that overwintering temperatures can substantially influence organismal performance is provided, and it is suggested that organismal responses to environmental changes in temperature cannot be ignored when forecasting organismal behaviours.

Estrogen and soy isoflavonoids decrease sensitivity of medulloblastoma and central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumor cells to chemotherapeutic cytotoxicity
BMC PHARMACOLOGY & TOXICOLOGY, 18(1).
Contributors: S. Belcher n , C. Burton*, C. Cookman*, M. Kirby*, G. Miranda*, F. Saeed*, K. Wray*
author keywords: Chemotherapy; Cytoprotection; Concentration-response; Estrogen; In vitro; Isoflavones; Medulloblastoma; Phytoestrogen
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that E2 and environmental estrogens decrease sensitivity of MB to cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drugs, and that ERβ selective and non-selective inhibition of estrogen receptor activity blocks these cytoprotective actions.

Early-life farm exposures and adult asthma and atopy in the Agricultural Lung Health Study
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 140(1), 249–256.e14.
author keywords: Agriculture; agricultural workers' diseases; allergy and immunology; asthma; hygiene hypothesis; IgE; prenatal exposure delayed effects
MeSH headings : Aged; Asthma / epidemiology; Case-Control Studies; Environmental Exposure; Farms; Female; Humans; Hypersensitivity, Immediate / blood; Hypersensitivity, Immediate / epidemiology; Immunoglobulin E / blood; Iowa / epidemiology; Male; Middle Aged; North Carolina / epidemiology; Odds Ratio; Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive / epidemiology; Smoking / epidemiology
TL;DR:
In a large US farming population, early‐life farm exposures, particularly maternal farming activities while pregnant, were strongly associated with reduced risk of atopy in adults, suggesting that protective associations of early‐ life farming exposures on atopy endure across the life course.

Do Tick Attachment Times Vary between Different Tick-Pathogen Systems?
[Review of ]. ENVIRONMENTS, 4(2).
author keywords: duration of tick attachment; tick-borne disease; tick; transmission dynamics
TL;DR:
Reports of tick attachment times varied between pathogen/toxin type and tick vector and knowledge of this important aspect of vector competence is lacking and impairs risk assessment for some tick-borne pathogens.

JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL MARINE BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY, 490, 42–51.
author keywords: Spotted seatrout; Thermal tolerance; Natural mortality rate; Overwinter mortality; Acute cold stress
TL;DR:
The results of this study provide strong evidence for thermally-limited overwinter survival of spotted seatrout at its northern latitudinal limits, where winterkill events can have population-level impacts.
