Green Fuel Combustion Synthesis of CeO2 and Ag/CeO2 Nanoparticles for Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Applications

T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

Abstract The petrotympanic canal, traditionally referred to as Civinini's or Huguier's canal, represents an anatomical passage connecting the middle ear and temporomandibular joint (TMJ).

Editorial Commentary: Beyond the Number: Why Return to Sport After Hip Arthroscopy Can't Be One Size Fits All

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract This editorial commentary reflects on the evolving field of hip arthroscopy in the elite athlete and the growing recognition that return‐to‐sport outcomes cannot be captured by a “one‐size‐fits‐all” percentage. The heterogeneity we see in return‐to‐sport rates is not a flaw, but an authentic reflection of the athletes who we treat.
