Tracheal chambers as a key innovation for high‐frequency emission in bat echolocation

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Key innovations are pivotal for biodiversity and facilitating evolutionary success, enabling organisms' adaptation to various ecological niches through the diversification of phenotypic traits. In mammals, notable adaptations include evolving hypsodonty for grazing on grasses and, for bats, evolving echolocation and wing acquisition.

Beyond the label: Rethinking off‐label drug use in paediatrics. Towards a scientifically grounded and safer future for paediatric pharmacotherapy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite regulatory progress being made in the past two decades, off‐label drug use in paediatrics remains pervasive, with prevalence estimated between 3% and 97% of prescriptions across different clinical settings. Off‐label use—defined as prescribing outside the conditions described in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC)—is often ...

More‐than‐gender? Moving beyond gendered expectations of divergent learners in early childhood education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we explore how neurodivergent ways of being in early education are often gendered. The intersectionalities of gender and neurodivergence often lead to fixed expectations that perpetuate binary interpretations, pathologisations, missed diagnoses and a lack of curated support.

HEART SOUND LOCALIZATION AND REDUCTION IN TRACHEAL SOUNDS BY GABOR TIME-FREQUENCY MASKING

Electrica, 2017
Respiratory sounds, i.e. tracheal and lung sounds, have been of great interest due to their diagnostic values as well as the potential of their use in the estimation of the respiratory dynamics (mainly airflow).

Personalized Gamified Learning in a Course on the Urogenital System Anatomy: Differential Effects Across Learning Preference Profiles

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Personalized learning approaches adapted to individual metacognitive characteristics have demonstrated promise in Anatomy education. However, whether such benefits are uniform across learner profiles or vary systematically remains an open question with implications for individualized instructional approaches.
