BACKGROUND: Fetal tachycardia is attributable to a variety of etiologies, including an untreated maternal medical condition or indicator potential fetal compromise. Maternal medication administration may also affect the heart rate. CASE: A 28-year-old nulliparous patient at 41 weeks gestation was treated for pruritus with intravenous diphenhydramine after epidural fentanyl. Within 14 minutes, rate increased from baseline 155 beats per minute (bpm) more than 200 bpm while maintaining moderate...
Florida Scrub-Jays (Aphelocoma coerulescens) are cooperative breeders endemic to Florida's oak scrub. In autumn, cache thousands of acorns and exhibit behaviors that appear balance site selection against food degradation or robbery. However, both experience position within a social dominance hierarchy could affect individual preferences. We examined the preferences birds with differing levels caching at different strata complex hierarchy. Our objective was determine how experience, position,...
Evening Grosbeak (Coccothraustes vespertinus) populations have been hypothesized to be in steep decline across North America. Data characterizing long-term changes are needed quantify the magnitude of declines. We surveyed grosbeaks at a spring migratory stop-over site Corvallis, Oregon, USA, where birds gather annually during April and May feast on elm (Ulmus spp.) seeds before departing breeding sites. An estimate produced by statistics professor 1970s indicated peak numbers were 150,000...
Abstract Many animals provide essential ecosystem services in the form of plant pollination. A rich literature documents considerable variation single visit pollination effectiveness different visitors, but this has yet to be comprehensively synthesized. We conducted a hierarchical meta-analysis 193 studies and extracted 1716 (SVE) comparisons for 252 species. paired SVE data with visitation frequency 75 these studies. Given global dominance honeybees pollinator communities, we used ask: 1)...
