Relationships between inner ear and sagitta growth during ontogenesis of three Carapini species, and consequences of life-history events on the otolith microstructure [PDF]
, 2002 Three species of Carapidae have in common a tenuis larval stage, during which they settle in the lagoon and take refuge in the same species of holothuroid. From the juvenile stage, Carapus homei and C.

Does any fish scale of a fish have the same number of marks? A case study for two Mugilidae species
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract This study evaluates the difference in growth marks in scales from nine body areas of two Mugilidae species from the Gulf of Mexico: Mugil curema and Mugil cephalus. It addresses whether the different body areas show more (or fewer) marks, and which area(s) would be more useful in fish biology studies relying on mark analysis.

Phenotypic divergence may facilitate co‐occurrence in Acanthopagrus species (Family: Sparidae)
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding why closely related species co‐occur is one fundamental question in ecology. The seabream genus Acanthopagrus Peters, 1855 (Sparidae) is broadly distributed across the Indo‐Pacific, with four species, A. arabicus and A. sheim (yellowfin group), and A. bifasciatus and A.

Long‐term stability of transcrestal sinus augmentation
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Transcrestal sinus augmentation has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to lateral window techniques for vertical bone augmentation in the edentulous maxilla. Since its early introduction and modification over the last several decades, this technique has demonstrated predictable outcomes for implant placement in regions with limited ...

An experimentally informed computational model of neurovestibular adaptation to altered gravity
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Transitions to altered gravity environments result in acute sensorimotor impairment for astronauts, leading to serious mission and safety risks in the crucial first moments in a new setting. Our understanding of the time course and severity of impairment in the early stages of adaptation remains limited and confounded by unmonitored head ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Visual modulation of vestibular‐evoked balance response disturbed by posterior cortical atrophy
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Summary of key findings. (A) Effect of vision on balance responses to vestibular stimulation in controls. Mean galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS)‐evoked response time‐course is shown without and with vision, illustrating how visual input ‘dampens’ the balance response.
