Endothermy, neuron counts, and other issues: Further remarks on neurocognitive evolution in fossil vertebrates

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Last year, we challenged the view that large‐bodied theropod dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex resembled primates in cognition and behavior, a proposition made by Herculano‐Houzel in 2023. More recently, Jensen et al. have criticized our work on this topic, raising methodological and conceptual issues.

Effects of olfactory training on patients with parosmia

Neuroscience
Olfactory training (OT) has shown efficacy in improving quantitative olfactory loss (hyposmia), However, its effects on qualitative disorders (parosmia) and the corresponding neural changes remain underexplored. This study aimed to compare the behavioral and neural effects of OT in patients with hyposmia and parosmia using chemosensory event-related ...

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.

Production of 3D printed biomodels of the canine brain for veterinary neuroanatomy teaching

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers, as it is a subject with highly dense content that commonly causes the development of aversion by students, a phenomenon referred to as “neurophobia,” which has been documented in human and veterinary medicine students.

Mind your nose: A randomized controlled trial of olfactory‐based memory training for older people with subjective cognitive decline

Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions
INTRODUCTION Olfactory‐based cognitive training may be of benefit to individuals at risk of dementia given the strong association between olfactory impairment and cognitive decline.

The beauty of experiential learning in anatomy

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy is a unique subject where one must learn by doing. This is achieved through a variety of methods like dissection, use of prosections, imaging, playful learning (crocheting structures, drawing, and painting organs), through functional movement like yoga or pilates, use of 3D plastic models or by immersing oneself in virtual or augmented

Functional Olfactory Nerve Regeneration Demonstrated by Thallium-201 Olfacto-Scintigraphy in Patients with Traumatic Anosmia: A Case Report

Case Reports in Otolaryngology, 2019
Head trauma is one of the most common etiologies of olfactory dysfunction. It is difficult to use either the olfactory function test or magnetic resonance imaging to directly assess the course of damage to olfactory nerves.

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

No Sensory Compensation for Olfactory Memory: Differences between Blind and Sighted People

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
Blindness can be a driving force behind a variety of changes in sensory systems. When vision is missing, other modalities and higher cognitive functions can become hyper-developed through a mechanism called sensory compensation. Overall, previous studies
