Review of the anatomical basis for predicting plutonium alpha particle radiation induced osteogenic cancers

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

But how does it smell? An investigation of olfactory bulb size among living and fossil primates and other euarchontoglirans

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Analysis of cranial endocast data of 181 extant and 41 fossil species from Euarchontoglires shows that there was a reduction in olfactory bulb size in Crown Primates, but that there were also subsequent reductions in various other primate clades (Anthropoidea, Catarrhini, Platyrrhini, crown Cercopithecoidea, Hominoidea).

The Effect of Sleep Deprivation on the Vestibulo‐Ocular Reflex and Vestibular Adaptation in Healthcare Night‐Shift Workers

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study examined the effects of sleep deprivation on the vestibulo‐ocular reflex (VOR) in healthcare night‐shift workers. Results showed a significant reduction in VOR gain (7.5%) during passive head movements toward far targets after a night shift, whereas other VOR functions and gaze stability remained unaffected.

Otopathologic Patterns of Cellular Degeneration in the Peripheral Vestibular Organ Secondary to Head Trauma

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study examines vestibular degeneration following head trauma, comparing cases with and without fractures. Histopathological analysis of 26 temporal bones showed more severe damage in nonfracture cases, particularly in Scarpa's ganglion cells and vestibular hair cells.
