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 ...

Sleep in neurodegenerative diseases: A focus on melatonin, melanin‐concentrating hormone and orexin

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sleep and circadian rest‐activity rhythm alterations are recognised as inherent clinical features of various neurodegenerative diseases. Traditionally viewed as secondary manifestations of neurodegeneration, recent studies have revealed that disruptions in circadian rhythm and sleep–wake cycles can precede clinical symptoms and significantly ...

Almost billfish: convergent longirostry, micro‐dentition, and possible glandular sinuses in a large teleost fish from the Upper Cretaceous of Northern Italy

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A fossil rostrum fragment of a large teleost fish from the Upper Cretaceous of Northern Italy reveals remarkable anatomical convergences with Cenozoic and Recent billfishes (marlins, swordfishes, and akin). The extinct group Plethodidae independently acquired a long snout, micro‐teeth, and oil‐gland sinuses well before the evolution of true billfishes.

Emergency relief venting of the infrared telescope liquid helium dewar [PDF]

An analysis is made of the emergency relief venting of the liquid helium dewar of the Spacelab 2 infrared telescope experiment in the event of a massive failure of the dewar guard vacuum. Such a failure, resulting from a major accident, could cause rapid

Digital twin with uncertainty‐informed deep learning for prompt quantitative risk assessment of deep excavation

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep excavation projects are inherently fraught with significant risks due to complex geological conditions, intricate construction processes, and uncertain surrounding environments. This study proposes a novel digital twin‐driven framework that integrates the physical excavation process with a virtual digital model to enable prompt and closed‐

Nitrite supplementation alleviates cerebrovascular dysfunction in chronically stressed mice, but cognitive decline remains

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to determine whether sodium nitrite supplementation prevented chronic stress‐induced cerebrovascular dysfunction and cognitive decline. We hypothesize that nitrite supplementation will prevent the oxidative environment and cerebrovascular dysfunction associated with chronic stress and maintain cognitive health.
