Evaluation of Off‐Label Postoperative Inhaled Steroid Use in Tracheal and Cricotracheal Resection [PDF]
Abstract Objective Tracheal resection (TR) and cricotracheal resection (CTR) are associated with anastomotic complications. Off‐label use of inhaled corticosteroids has gained popularity for reducing tracheal granulation tissue, though adoption remains limited due to unclear safety and efficacy.

First records of two mackerel shark species (Carcharodon planus comb. nov. and Carcharodon hubbelli; Lamnidae) from New Zealand [PDF]
ABSTRACT The fossil record of the genus Carcharodon (Lamniformes: Lamnidae) dates to the late Oligocene and has a near global distribution. Today the genus is represented by a single species, the white shark Carcharodon carcharias. However, multiple extinct species are recognised in the Cenozoic including Carcharodon hastalis, Carcharodon hubbelli and ...

Navigating infection by pathogenic spirochetes: The host‐bacteria interface at the atomic level [PDF]
Abstract Pathogenic spirochetes bind and interact with various host structures and molecules throughout the course of infection. By utilizing their outer surface molecules, spirochetes can effectively modulate their dissemination, interact with immune system regulators, and select specific destination niches within the host.

Springing into action: Comparing escape responses between bipedal and quadrupedal rodents [PDF]
The findings of this study suggest that enlarged hindlimbs improve escape performance by allowing rodents to more efficiently utilize vertical jumping as an antipredator escape response. Abstract Predation is a fundamental selective pressure on animal morphology, as morphology is directly linked with physical performance and evasion. Bipedal heteromyid

A Reappraisal of the 40Ar/38Ar Dating Technique via Irradiation with γ‐Rays
Key Points γ‐ray irradiation of K‐bearing rocks induces formation of 38ArK from 39K and allows calculation of ages similar to the classical neutron‐irradiation technique. The investigated age monitors demonstrate the feasibility of the 40Ar/38Ar‐method for terrestrial samples, but still higher γ‐energies are demanded to provide high precision data.
