Microclimate mediates the strength and direction of avian biotic interactions

Ecography, EarlyView.
Theory predicts that the strength and direction of species interactions can shift from being competitive in benign environments toward being facilitative in stressful environments. However, the environmental context dependency of species interactions has rarely been tested in animal communities.

Optic Nerve Head Measurements Across Optical Coherence Tomography Platforms and Incidental Optic Nerve Head Drusen in Community Screenings

Eye &ENT Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Automated vertical cup‐to‐disc ratio (VCDR) measurements are commonly used in optic nerve assessment, but measurements may vary across optical coherence tomography (OCT) platforms, particularly in eyes with atypical optic nerve anatomy such as optic nerve head drusen (ONHD).

Reflex seizures and epilepsy surgery: A network approach case‐based exploration

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Context Reflex seizures (RS) are defined by their consistent provocation by specific stimuli, encompassing a broad range from elementary sensory inputs to complex cognitive tasks. While RS are often encountered in clinical practice, their surgical management remains sparsely reported and poorly systematized.

Direct cortical stimulation–evoked symptoms in the human temporal pole: A systematic review

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract The temporal pole represents a key node within temporolimbic networks and may contribute to seizure generation in temporal lobe epilepsy. Direct cortical stimulation (DCS), performed during intracranial presurgical evaluation, is a valuable method for delineating the seizure onset zone by reproducing electro‐clinical features of a patient's ...

Study on Fluid Pressure in Tubing, Dynamic Stress in Reservoir, and Fracture Propagation Morphology During Variable‐Rate Hydraulic Fracturing

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Variable‐rate hydraulic fracturing can induce unsteady flow in the tubing, thereby generating fluctuating fluid pressure near the bottom‐hole reservoir. Dynamic stress is generated in the reservoir under the action of fluctuating fluid pressure and propagates as stress waves.

Effect of exercise‐related nasopharyngeal disorders on upper airway function in racehorses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Exercise‐related upper respiratory tract (URT) disorders are frequently diagnosed in racehorses. Treatment recommendations are routinely based on subjective assessment of clinical evaluation and exercising endoscopy findings. Objectives To objectively investigate how palatal instability (PI), intermittent dorsal displacement of the ...

Composite materials based on dual network cross‐linking for flexible sensors

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Utilizing hydrogen bond lithium bond dual network structure to effectively enhance the rapid self‐healing properties of flexible ionic materials. Abstract The further development of flexible ionic materials is limited by the evaporation or leakage of their internal liquid state. This article presents a composite flexible ionic material with no internal
