Excessive dynamic airway collapse during general anesthesia: a case report

JA Clinical Reports, 2020
Background Excessive dynamic airway collapse (EDAC) is an uncommon cause of high airway pressure during mechanical ventilation. However, EDAC is not widely recognized by anesthesiologists, and therefore, it is often misdiagnosed as asthma.

Subtropical marine reserve as key habitats for the critically endangered sand tiger shark (Carcharias taurus) in the Southwestern Atlantic

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study documents the occurrence, seasonal patterns and reproductive activity of the sand tiger shark (Carcharias taurus) within a no‐take marine protected area in southeastern Brazil, using Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) and diving records.

Shark preferences: Only subtle effects of electromagnetic field exposure and substrate type on small‐spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) behaviour

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Offshore wind energy plays a crucial role in the transition to low‐carbon power generation. The expansion of offshore wind farms (OWFs) introduces anthropogenic electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from subsea power cables. Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are sensitive to natural electric and magnetic fields used for navigation and prey ...

The Talion law “tooth for a tooth”: self-defense as a motivation for shark bites on human aggressors

Frontiers in Conservation Science
The concept of “self-defense,” based on aggression by one individual responding to an initial aggression by another, has been observed in several animal taxa such as birds and terrestrial mammals but never documented in detail in sharks. Based on a multi-

Enrichment‐Based Duplex PCR for Early Detection of Potentially Virulent Vibrio harveyi in Aquaculture

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vibrio harveyi is an important bacterial pathogen in marine aquaculture, responsible for outbreaks affecting a wide range of fish species. Early detection of potentially virulent isolates in fish and environmental samples is essential for effective disease prevention and management, particularly under field conditions where the pathogen may be

Generics favor stability

Mind &Language, EarlyView.
Humans seek to predict, explain, and control their environments. Generalizations—like those expressed by “children like candy” and “cigarettes cause cancer”—provide one resource to facilitate these tasks. We develop a proposal tying the acceptability judgments of generics to the psychological functions of generalizations.

Risk, Recklessness, and Objectivism

Ratio, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One classic objection to Objectivism about ought is that it recommends unconscionably risky actions in so‐called Three‐Option‐Cases, the most famous of which is Jackson's case featuring a doctor called Jill. Some philosophers deny this orthodoxy and claim that Objectivism can yet account for our intuitions in such cases.

Optimizing Water Flow With Cavitation on the NACA 0009 Hydrofoil Inspired by the Mako Shark Bumps

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering
The numerical investigation of the water flow with partial cavitation around the NACA 0009 hydrofoil with bumps inspired by the mako shark (biomimicry) was performed. The simulation was done by ANSYS Fluent software for cavitation numbers of 1 and 1.5 at
