Assessing the intraspecific osteological variation of the spottail shiner (Hudsonius hudsonius) (Cypriniformes: Leuciscidae)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hudsonius hudsonius (Cypriniformes: Leuciscidae), commonly known as the spottail shiner, is a small cyprinoid fish species found across much of North America. H. hudsonius has traditionally been regarded as one of the most basal and plesiomorphic species among the notropin fishes, that is, fishes traditionally placed in or associated with the ...

Surface morphology and distribution of oropharyngeal taste papillae in sharks and rays (Elasmobranchii, Chondrichthyes): Implications for gustatory sensitivity

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates the morphology, abundance, and distribution of taste papillae in the oropharyngeal cavity of a range of elasmobranchs using SEM, histology, and topographic analyses. The interspecific importance of gustation is reflected in quantitative differences in the size, density, and distribution of taste papillae, which have implications

Microelectrode recordings from the human cervical vagus nerve during maximal breath‐holds

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Voluntary breath‐holds can be sustained for a long time following training, but ultimately, regardless of duration, the asphyxic break‐point is reached and the apnoea terminated. The physiological changes occurring during the apnoea include a marked increase in sympathetically‐mediated vasoconstriction in non‐essential organs, such as skeletal

Physiology of nitrogen: A life or death matter

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract With each breath, four out of every five molecules we inspire are nitrogen (N2), since this gas constitutes ∼80% of the atmospheric air that surrounds us. Despite its abundance and unlike molecular oxygen, N2 has traditionally held less appeal among physiologists given its lack of reactivity and corresponding inability to support combustion or

Chemoreflex function in pulmonary diseases – A review

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Chemoreflex activation in respiratory diseases and COVID‐19 populations. Abstract The chemoreflex is a vital protective reflex that is crucial in restoring normal blood gas and pH levels. The carotid bodies are peripheral chemoreceptors activated by hypoxia (primarily), hypercapnia, acidaemia, temperature, lactate and potassium ...

A Rare Case of Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia due to Neurovascular Conflict

Case Reports in Neurology, 2018
In the context of painful cranial neuropathies, a very rare cause is represented by the irritation of the glossopharyngeal nerve due to various aetiologic factors. Here, we present a case of neuralgia of the ninth right cranial nerve due to a compression

New Horizons for Multiple Sclerosis Therapy: 2025 and Beyond

Annals of Neurology, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 317-328, August 2025.
The advances achieved against multiple sclerosis (MS) represent one of the great success stories of modern molecular medicine. The development of therapies with increasing selectivity and safety, guided by gains in understanding the fundamental immunology, neurobiology, genetics, and triggers of this disease, have broadened the traditional focus on ...

Impact of honey on post‐tonsillectomy pain in children (BEE PAIN FREE Trial): a multicentre, double‐blind, randomised controlled trial*

Anaesthesia, Volume 80, Issue 8, Page 946-958, August 2025.
Summary Introduction Tonsillectomy, a common childhood surgery, is associated with difficult postoperative recovery. Previous reviews provided low‐grade evidence that honey may improve recovery. The BEE PAIN FREE study investigated whether honey alongside multimodal analgesia improved the recovery trajectory in children following tonsillectomy ...
