This graphical abstract illustrates the kinematics and directionality of body turning in water striders (Gerris argentatus). The top image shows a water strider making turns, with arrows indicating possible directions and a dashed line tracing its path, highlighting its dynamic turning capabilities.

Abstract Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become an essential tool for studying fluid interactions in biological systems. While widely used in engineering, its application in the natural sciences, particularly in paleobiology, remains limited due to the challenges of meshing complex organic geometries.

This study assessed skin biomechanics using the Cutometer in 441 community‐dwelling adults aged 20–93 from the INSPIRE‐T cohort. We demonstrated that skin elasticity and viscoelasticity parameters were associated with the intrinsic capacity (IC) score, a functional marker of healthy aging encompassing cognition, locomotion, psychology, vitality, and ...

Artificial Intelligence in Australian Dental and General Healthcare: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT This review contextualises the role of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare within an Australian healthcare regulatory and ethical framework. Four online databases (PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL and Web of Science) were searched for peer‐reviewed publications that addressed at least two of the three topics: (1) the current ...

Abstract Purpose To evaluate choroidal changes in high myopic (HM) patients with posterior staphyloma (PS) and explore their association with Gaussian curvature (K) using ultra‐wide‐field optical coherence tomography angiography (UWF‐OCTA). Methods HM patients with wide macular PS (Type I PS) and without any PS (control) were recruited.
