Regulation of cochlear blood flow is critical for hearing due to its exquisite sensitivity to ischemia and oxidative stress.Many forms of hearing loss such as sensorineural hearing loss and presbyacusis may involve or be aggravated by blood flow disorders.Animal experiments and clinical outcomes Clock further suggest that there is a gender preferen
Fluid-preserved reptile and amphibian specimens are challenging to photograph with traditional methods due to their complex three-dimensional forms and reflective surfaces when removed from solution.An effective approach to counteract these KELP issues involves combining focus stack photography with the use of a photo immersion tank.Imaging specime
Ecosystems like coral reefs mitigate rising coastal flood risks, but investments into their conservation remain low relative to the investments into engineered risk-mitigation structures.One reason is that quantifying the risk-reduction benefits of coral reefs requires an estimate of their fragility to severe stresses.Engineered structures typicall
