Abstract:
... A considerable body of clinical evidence suggests that systemic dehydration can negatively affect voice production, leading to the common recommendation to rehydrate. Evidence for the corrective benefits of rehydration, however, is limited with mixed conclusions, and biological data on the underlying tissue changes with rehydration is lacking. In this study, we used a rabbit model (n = 24) of acut ...

Abstract:
... There is currently a growing interest in soilless substrates for blueberry cultivation. Identifying optimal substrate for the growth and development of the crop, and understanding the physiological response of blueberries is not only essential to determine the appropriate growing conditions, but also to improve the quality of the fruit. In this study, we evaluated the development and physiological ...

Abstract:
... The goal of this study is to investigate the psychophysiological effects of traffic sounds in urban green spaces. In a laboratory experiment, psychological and physiological responses to four traffic sounds were measured, including road, conventional train, high-speed train, and tram. The findings demonstrated that traffic sounds had significant detrimental psychological and physiological effects. ...

Abstract:
... Carbohydrate reserves are an essential key to plant survival from disturbance. Therefore, studying the different storage organs and types of reserves makes it possible to understand the dynamics of singular plants such as Bulbostylis paradoxa (Spreng.) Lindm, which presents flowering triggered by fire in the Cerrado. Physiological response to fire frequency is detailed by measuring the plant's res ...

Abstract:
... The clothing comfort sensation is a combination of complex components, including psychological and physiological responses. General linear analysis is not always sufficient for the evaluation of the clothing comfort sensation. The current study sought to predict the clothing comfort sensation of wearing an undershirt using an artificial neural network (ANN). We constructed ANN models with psycholo ...

Abstract:
... We investigated the physiological response of the symbiotic dinoflagellate Pelagodinium béii to exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, focusing on synthesis and accumulation of UV-absorbing substances (mycosporine-like amino acids, MAAs). For the culture experiments, we used P. béii isolated from the foraminifer Globigerinoides sacculifer, which ubiquitously inhabits the surface waters of oligotr ...

Abstract:
... Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroid hormones that function in plant growth and development and response to environmental stresses and nutrient supplies. However, few studies have investigated the effect of BRs in modulating the physiological response to nitrogen (N) supply in maize. In the present study, BR signaling-deficient mutant zmbri1-RNAi lines and exogenous application of 2,4-epibrassinolid ...

Abstract:
... Breeding efficient pigs is a way to reduce dietary costs and environmental waste. However, optimization of feed efficiency must not be linked to a decrease of the ability of animals to cope with stress, such as the weaning. This study characterizes the response after weaning of pigs from two lines divergently selected for residual feed intake (RFI) during growth. Animals of the low (L) RFI line ar ...

Abstract:
... Fatty acids (FA) have been reported to play a role in the defense against bacterial pathogens. However, studies in fish are limited and no information exists on the modulation of FA of Eleginops maclovinus challenged with the pathogen of aquaculture relevance Francisella noatunensis. We inoculated 144 fish intraperitoneally with 3 doses (low dose [LD]: 1 × 10¹ bact/μL; medium dose [MD]: 1 × 10⁵ ba ...

Abstract:
... Functional diversity has been defined as the value, range, distribution, and relative abundance of the functional traits of individuals that belong to an ecosystem. Thus, the functional response of organisms to environmental disturbances depends largely on their functional traits. Here, we evaluated dung beetle functional diversity associated to the Atlantic Forest replacement using a matrix with ...

Abstract:
... Expected effects on marine biota of the ongoing elevation of water temperature and high latitudes is of major concern when considering the reliability of coastal ecosystem production. To compare the capacity of coastal organisms to cope with a temperature increase depending on their environmental history, responses of adult blue mussels (Mytilus spp.) taken from two sites differentially exposed to ...

Abstract:
... Inorganic phosphate (Pi) deficiency is a main limiting factor on crops growth and to select low-Pi tolerant breeding lines is very significant for crop breeding. Here, two contrasting maize (Zea mays L.) breeding lines showed different physiological response to Pi deficiency. The low-Pi tolerant QXN233 maintained normal growth, including high fresh weight, green leaves, strong shoots, and numerous ...

Abstract:
... Volunteer wildlife rehabilitators rescue and rehabilitate thousands of native animals every year in Australia. However, there is little known about how exposure to novel stimuli during rehabilitation could affect the physiology of wildlife. We investigated this question in a species that commonly enters rehabilitation, the common brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula). We evaluated five enzyme i ...

Abstract:
... Epidemiological evidence suggests that motorized vehicle users have a higher air pollutant exposure (especially from vehicle exhaust) than active (walking or cycling) transport users. However, studies often relied on insufficiently diverse sample and ignored that minute ventilation has an effect on individuals’ inhaled dose. This study examined commuters’ breathing zone concentration and inhaled d ...

... This review aims to explore the effects of microplastics and their corresponding additives on the physiological performances of marine bivalves together with their related genes. We identified gaps based on studies that were conducted on other organisms, and we conducted a comparative study on similar and relevant aspects for exploring future potential areas of study and interest. Microplastics ar ...

Abstract:
... Pivotal work in recent years has cast light on the importance of the human microbiome in maintenance of health and physiological response to drugs. It is now clear that gastrointestinal microbiota have the metabolic power to promote, inactivate, or even toxify the efficacy of a drug to a level of clinically relevant significance. At the same time, it appears that drug intake has the propensity to ...

Abstract:
... This study used hyperspectral reflectance data to evaluate the crop physiological parameters of sweet maize. Principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to identify the wavelengths that primarily contributed to each selected PC. Correlation analysis and multiple linear regression, with a stepwise algorithm, were used to select the best-performing vegetation indices (VIs) for monitoring the yiel ...

This investigation tested the hypothesis that the native cyanobacteria can acclimatize and grow under the combination of environmental factors and/or how does their process change with the age of culture? Here, we tried to combine multiple factors to simulated what happens in natural ecosystems. We analyzed the physiological response of terrestrial cyanobacterium, Cylindrospermum sp. FS 64 under c ...

However, little is known about the plant physiological response to climate change. RESULTS: Here, we select the Kobresia pygmaea, an important perennial Cyperaceae forage, to examine the physiological indices to temperature changes in different growing months. We determined the con ...
