Best practices for physiological data collection in youth with autism and co-occurring mental health diagnoses: Implications for human-animal intervention research.
MethodsX    March 27, 2025   Volume 14 103284 doi: 10.1016/j.mex.2025.103284
Smith CM, Weimann K, Widick M, Merritt T, Christensen H, Siegel M, Pan Z, Gabriels RL.The purpose of this paper is to serve as a catalyst for the human-animal interaction research field to improve scientific rigor and accelerate the knowledge of field-based physiological responses during equine-assisted services in youth with autism spectrum disorder. This paper outlines the best practices for collecting and analyzing electrocardiogram and electrodermal activity in youth with autism spectrum disorder, utilized during a 10-week therapeutic horseback riding intervention.•Motivation strategies such as device choice, reward systems, and a visual schedule should be implemented to ...
Molecular detection and identification of Enteromonas species in human and animal hosts using polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequencing.

Lacante SA, Jiang C, Mustamir AA, Mizuno T, Bi X, Syafruddin D, Tokoro M., a human intestinal protozoan parasite of the diplomonad group, has been overlooked because of its commensal features; therefore, molecular studies on this parasite are limited. To address this gap, we designed a molecular screening protocol using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA sequencing targeting the 18S small subunit ribosomal RNA gene and applied this screening method to the molecular epidemiological analysis of spp. in humans and various livestock. We validated our methodology using stool samples collected from 215 humans and 270 animal hosts (buffaloes, pigs, dogs, goats, hors...
Enhanced UHPLC-MS/MS screening of selective androgen receptor modulators following urine hydrolysis.
MethodsX    May 21, 2020   Volume 7 100926 doi: 10.1016/j.mex.2020.100926
Gadaj A, Ventura E, Healy J, Botrè F, Sterk SS, Buckley T, Mooney MH.Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) represent non-steroidal agents commonly abused in human and animal (i.e. equine, canine) sports, with potential for further misuse as growth promoting agents in livestock-based farming. As a direct response to the real and possible implications of illicit application in both sport as well as food production systems, this study incorporated enzymatic hydrolysis (β-glucuronidase/arylsulfatase) into a previously established protocol while maintaining the minimal volume (200 µL) of urine sample required to detect SARMs encompassing various pharmacop...
