Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...

Impact of temporal tear meniscus height on the tear osmolarity measurements
Scientific ReportsTear hyperosmolarity plays a crucial role in initiation of inflammatory response and damage to ocular surface epithelia. Accurate measurement of tear osmolarity is essential for dry eye. This prospective observational and experimental study was conducted

Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Mammalian sperm need to undergo hyperactivation, capacitation, and acrosome reaction to achieve fertilization competence. However, the female reproductive tract presents contrasting metabolic environments. The uterus is glucose‐rich, and the oviduct is lactate‐rich and glucose‐limited.

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract Topic This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the association between retinal vein occlusion (RVO) and lymphoma across two complementary evidence components: a qualitative clinical synthesis of RVO occurring in patients with lymphoma and a quantitative synthesis of subsequent cancer outcomes in patients with RVO. For the qualitative

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract A healthy tear film is vital for ocular surface integrity and relies on the coordinated function of the lacrimal glands, meibomian glands and conjunctival goblet cells. Dysfunction in any of these elements can lead to dry eye disease (DED). This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the efficacy of low‐level light therapy (LLLT) as a ...
