Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Effectiveness of Virtual Reality Interventions for Perioperative Anxiety in Adults: A Systemic Review With Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Clinical Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Surgery often causes anxiety in adults due to various factors, including fear of anaesthesia and loss of independence. This anxiety can lead to higher anaesthesia requirements and more postoperative complications. Virtual Reality (VR) is increasingly used as a non‐pharmacological intervention to decrease perioperative anxiety.

Effects of repeated cryostimulation exposures on sleep quality in swimmers during an intense training period

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of daily partial body cryostimulation exposures on sleep and recovery parameters in elite swimmers undergoing an intense training period. Twenty‐three elite French swimmers (7 females and 16 males) were involved in this controlled cross‐over protocol. The experiment took place during 2 weeks of
