Exploring craniofacial fluctuating asymmetry in a South African sample
This study investigated craniofacial fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in a contemporary South African sample using micro‐XCT scans. Inter‐landmark distances (ILDs) assessed size variation, while geometric morphometric methods (GMMs) captured shape variation.

Summary Cognitive, metabolic and sleep benefits associated with enhancement of sleep slow waves using closed‐loop auditory stimulation have been reported in adults but not in adolescents, especially in home settings. Seventeen volunteers (10F/7M; age range: 13–18 years old) participated in a 2‐week, single‐blind, crossover study.

An afternoon nap facilitates analogical transfer in creative problem solving
Summary In analogical problem solving, the solution to a previously experienced problem (source) is used to solve a new but structurally similar problem (target). Yet, analogical transfer is seldom successful, as structural commonalities between source and target problems can be difficult to recognise.

Aperiodic neural activity distinguishes between phasic and tonic REM sleep
Summary Traditionally categorized as a uniform sleep phase, rapid eye movement sleep exhibits substantial heterogeneity with its phasic and tonic constituents showing marked differences regarding many characteristics. Here, we investigate how tonic and phasic states differ with respect to aperiodic neural activity, a marker of arousal and sleep.

Development of Artificial Intelligence‐Supported Automatic Three‐Dimensional Surface Cephalometry
ABSTRACT Objective Surface‐based three‐dimensional (3D) cephalometry provides detailed clinical information for the analysis of craniofacial structures. This study aimed to develop an automated 3D surface cephalometry system using mesh fitting based on landmarks identified by artificial intelligence (AI) and to evaluate its accuracy. Methods A total of
