Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

Mitochondrial Gene Expression of Three Different Dragonflies Under the Stress of Chlorpyrifos
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is an organophosphate insecticide that is extensively utilized globally due to its effectiveness against over 200 pest species. CPF exhibits its toxicity primarily through the inhibition of the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme, while

Abstract Belonostomus longirostrisis was named for an isolated jaw fragment from freshwater Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) sediments of the Dinosaur Park Formation of Alberta, Canada. Following the description of the Albertan species, numerous isolated cranial and postcranial elements have been collected from the Dinosaur Park Formation and assigned to B.

Abstract The vertebrate skull is composed of bones derived from neural crest cells and mesoderm. The evolutionary capacity of the skull has been linked, in part, to the emergence of neural crest cells; however, this increased capacity for evolutionary change requires that variation within neural crest‐ and mesoderm‐derived bones remains partly ...

New record of Stylogomphus lawrenceae Yang & Davies, 1996 (Odonata, Gomphidae) in Thailand and updates on its distribution [PDF]
Stylogomphus lawrenceae Yang & Davies, 1996 is reported from reared specimens for the first time in Thailand. This is a range extension to the south from a previously known locality (China and the northern part of Laos). We also provide

Difference Between Low‐Speed and High‐Speed Rotational Atherectomy Using Two Types of Guidewires
ABSTRACT Background Debulking devices are necessary to treat severe calcified lesions. Rotational atherectomy (RA) is widely employed to modify calcified plaques, but the influence of procedural variables, such as guidewire type and ablation speed, on ablation outcomes is not well established.

Mating success is linked to reproductive success in males, but parameters influencing it are poorly known. The relationships between lifetime mating success (LMS), fluctuating asymmetry (FA), body size (SIZE), reproductive period (RP) and emergence date (

Under an alternating electric field, the lithiated halloysite nanotubes (HNTs–SO₃Li) self‐assemble into a perpendicular orientation, creating continuous pathways with low tortuosity that markedly enhance room‐temperature ionic conductivity. The shortened diffusion path within this alignment enables rapid Li⁺ transport, while the establishment of a ...
