Disparity of turbinal bones in placental mammals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 749-777, April 2026.
Abstract Turbinals are key bony elements of the mammalian nasal cavity, involved in heat and moisture conservation as well as olfaction. While turbinals are well known in some groups, their diversity is poorly understood at the scale of placental mammals, which span 21 orders.

Synapsids and sensitivity: Broad survey of tetrapod trigeminal canal morphology supports an evolutionary trend of increasing facial tactile specialization in the mammal lineage

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 4, Page 864-911, April 2026.
Abstract The trigeminus nerve (cranial nerve V) is a large and significant conduit of sensory information from the face to the brain, with its three branches extending over the head to innervate a wide variety of integumentary sensory receptors, primarily tactile.

The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 1003-1035, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social

A Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Disease: Comprehensive Theory and Evidence for Mechanisms of Action

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

Efficacy of Automatic 3D Segmentation of the Upper Airway in CBCT or CT Scans via Artificial Intelligence Versus Manual Segmentation by Human Experts: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives 3D segmentation of the upper airway is crucial for dental and medical practices. However, it is a difficult and daunting task. Like almost all other areas, AI can theoretically help in airway segmentation. Nevertheless, AI's efficacy remains unknown. This meta‐analysis investigated this matter for the first time.

Review of National Laws and Regulations in China in Relation to the Precautionary Approach to Fisheries Management

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 201-218, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The precautionary approach has been widely accepted as an important guideline in international, regional, and national fisheries management. The United Nations Fish Stocks Agreement provided a foundational framework for the application of the precautionary approach in fisheries management.

Ecosystem Impacts of the Landing Obligation for Unwanted Catch in Thermaikos Gulf (Greece)

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 246-259, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Discards by marine commercial fisheries have been an issue of major concern to the scientific community in recent years. We modeled the ecological and trophic consequences of a mandatory landing obligation (LO) regulated by the reformed Common Fisheries Policy [Regulation (EU) 1380/2013] on the Thermaikos Gulf ecosystem (northwestern Aegean ...

Geographical and Seasonal Distribution of Australian Pygmy Right Whales (Caperea marginata) Based on Passive Acoustics

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The pygmy right whale (Caperea marginata) is one of the least studied mysticete species. To shed light on its geographic and seasonal distribution, we compiled archival acoustic recordings from 26 sites across southern Australia and developed a deep‐learning detector for pygmy right whale “doublet” vocalizations.

Unveiling Patterns in Cetacean Strandings Along Southern Atlantic Iberia: Temporal and Spatial Trends, Seasonality, and Causes of Death

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We compiled 46 years of cetacean strandings in the Algarve, Portugal, describing temporal–spatial patterns, size–sex structure, and causes of death (COD). We analyzed national records and years with a dedicated regional stranding network (SN) to assess annual/seasonal trends, spatial hotspots, and compare biometrics and COD.
