Computational fluid dynamics simulations of airflow through the nasal passages of rhinolophoid bats

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The nasal passages of bats that emit their echolocation call through their nostrils have adapted for sound emission as well as standard respiratory and olfactory functions. Rhinolophids, hipposiderids and rhinonycterids all use a high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation strategy.

Tracheal chambers as a key innovation for high‐frequency emission in bat echolocation

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Key innovations are pivotal for biodiversity and facilitating evolutionary success, enabling organisms' adaptation to various ecological niches through the diversification of phenotypic traits. In mammals, notable adaptations include evolving hypsodonty for grazing on grasses and, for bats, evolving echolocation and wing acquisition.

Invisible Kitchens, Visible Values: Understanding Consumer Trust and Boundary Formation in Digital Food Experiences

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research investigates how consumers establish trust in ghost kitchens, a rapidly growing digital service format that eliminates physical interaction and redefines the boundaries of food consumption. Despite their growing popularity, ghost kitchens present a paradox of trust, as the absence of physical premises and direct interaction ...

Environmental Management Control Systems and Environmental and Economic Performance: Do Country Characteristics Matter?

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using an integrated framework that combines the natural resource‐based view with contingency theory, this study examines how environmental management control systems (EMCS) build multinational firms' environmental capabilities and balance their environmental and economic performance while accounting for cross‐country contextual conditions.

Ag‐Induced Phase and Defect Engineering of Co‐Evaporated Sb2Se3 Thin Films for Enhanced Photovoltaic Performance

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
The sequential formation of Ag2Se and AgSbSe2 phases at the Sb2Se3/Mo interface upon Ag incorporation in co‐evaporated Sb2Se3 solar cells promotes grain growth and defect passivation. These newly formed intermediate phases enhance crystallinity and suppress recombination, leading to significant improvements in open‐circuit voltage, fill factor, and ...

Mortality risk stratification for Takotsubo syndrome: Evaluating CRP measurement alongside the InterTAK prognostic score

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1427-1436, April 2025.
Abstract Background and objectives Initially described as a benign acute cardiomyopathy, Takotsubo syndrome has been linked to elevated mortality rates. Emerging evidence suggests that unresolved myocardial inflammation may contribute to this adverse prognosis.
