Gastrointestinal parasites (GIPs) pose a significant threat to wildlife health and biodiversity, impacting reproductive activities, behavior, survival, and population dynamics.Identifying parasitic infections in wild animals can help to mitigate extinction risk and support conservation efforts.This study investigates the prevalence, diversity, and
Enactivism and Ecological Psychology: The Role of Bodily Experience in Agency
This paper considers some foundational concepts in ecological psychology and in enactivism, and traces their developments from their historical roots to current preoccupations.Important differences stem, we claim, from dissimilarities in how embodied experience has been understood by the ancestors, founders and followers of ecological psychology an
Diabetes-associated sleep fragmentation impairs liver and heart function via SIRT1-dependent epigenetic modulation of NADPH oxidase 4
Although clinical evidence suggests that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is an established major risk factor for heart failure, it remains unexplored whether sleep disorder-caused hepatic damage contributes to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD).Here, our findings revealed that sleep fragmentation (SF) displayed notable hepatic detrime
Motion Classification With Embroidery Bend Sensors Using Multiple Zigzag-Stitch for Loose-Fitting Garments
This study proposes a wearable motion classification system by employing commercially available conductive threads and everyday garments.The unique feature of the proposed system is an embroidery bending sensor that does not necessitate tight-fitting with the body, which contrasts with traditional motion sensing systems.Therefore, integration can b
