Diverse and extensive macrofouling of the left-hand (eyed) side has been observed in multiple films and photographs of different specimens of Eckström's topknot Zeugopterus regius. Identified foulers include macroalgae and tunicates. Photographs of unfouled specimens and preserved juveniles have also been inspected.

- * Researchers conducted a comprehensive survey covering 322 species across various orders and families, revealing that large BBs have evolved multiple times in certain teleost groups, specifically within ostariophysians and Salmoniformes.
- * The absence of BBs is mainly noted in certain fish groups such as flying fishes and parrotfishes, while their presence in jellynose fish supports a possible evolutionary link with Ctenosquamata, though further research is required to confirm this relationship.
Common topknots (Zeugopterus punctatus) attach to vertical rock surfaces and overhangs. It has been speculated that attachment is by a suction cup, with the median (anal, dorsal) fins providing a peripheral seal. Here the authors propose that the attachment is actually based on a Venturi effect.

This character, along with cranial asymmetry and a forward insertion of the dorsal fin, have been considered synapomorphies for the Pleuronectiformes. New dissections and examination of images taken in the wild show that the recessus orbitalis is present in all representatives of Pleuronectoidei examined but is absent in the single species of Psettoidei dissected.

Objective: The aims of this retrospective study were to assess the biological (hemoglobin, Hb) and clinical (ECOG index) impact of ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) and to identify predictive factors of response in cancer patients with iron deficiency.
Methods: We included 133 patients with solid tumors who received at least one dose of FCM in 2015.
