Hatchling fitness in crocodilians is affected by "runtism" or failure to thrive syndrome (FTT) in captivity. In this study, 300 hatchling C. porosus, artificially incubated at 32°C for most of their embryonic development, were raised in semi-controlled conditions, with growth criteria derived for the early detection of FTT (within 24 days). Body mass, four days after hatching (BM4d), was correl...

tive way of looking at incidents and accidents arising in high-risk environments [3]. He proposed that we look at work in terms of coupling and complexity of interactions. This approach has been applied to anaesthetic practice to break the chain of accident evolution [4]. The headline message from this is that when coupling is tight and complexity is high, the risk of a bad outcome is increased...

Non-organic failure to thrive has traditionally been regarded as due primarily to maternal rejection and neglect. A critical reappraisal of the evidence suggests a more balanced view of the mother-child relationship should be taken. A classification of the condition, founded on facts not concepts, is urgently required. Non-organic failure to thrive should be viewed in a multidimensional context...
