Physiological Stress in Birds
Abstract
Although the control mechanism is less clearly determined, stress in birds, as in mammals, can be defined in terms of the activation of two integrative neurohumoral systems by external or internal stimuli: (a) the neurogenic system response, which is almost immediate and provides a rapid delivery of energy, and (b) the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal complex response, which is a slower, long-term mobilization of defenses. These responses, although temporary defense mechanisms against specific stimuli, place a bird in a state of general nonspecific stress, in which growth rates and resistance to many diseases are diminished.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
