Background: Echolocating bats face an intense arms race with insect prey that can detect bat calls and initiate evasive maneuvers. Their high closing speeds and short biosonar ranges leave bats with only a few 100 ms between detection and capture, suggesting a reactive sensory-motor operation that might preclude tracking of escaping prey. Here we test this hypothesis using greater mouse-eared bats (Myotis myotis) as a model species.

Background: Chronic pain is among the most common conditions worldwide and requires a multidisciplinary treatment approach. Spinal cord stimulation is a possible treatment option for pain management; however, patients undergoing this intervention require close follow-up, which is not always feasible. eHealth apps offer opportunities for improved patient follow-up, although adherence to these apps tends to decrease over time, with rates dropping to approximately 60%.

January 2025

Guangdong Key Laboratory of Animal Conservation and Resource Utilization, Institute of Zoology, Guangdong Academy of Sciences, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China.

Rhinolophus bats have been identified as natural reservoirs for viruses with global health implications, including severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronaviruses (SARSr-CoV) and swine acute diarrhoea syndrome-related coronavirus (SADSr-CoV). In this study, we characterised the individual viromes of 603 bats to systematically investigate the diversity, abundance and geographic distribution of viral communities within R. affinis, R.

Blood coagulation monitoring of patients with mechanical heart valve visiting Imam.

J Cardiothorac Surg

January 2025

Cardiovascular Research Center, Health Policy and Promotion Institute, Imam-Ali Hospital, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah, Iran.

Background: The lacking proper regulation of International Normalized Ratio (INR) as the main problem in patients with mechanical valve replacement surgery poses the risk of thrombosis and embolism on the one hand and the risk of bleeding on the other. For this reason, the correct monitoring of INR via the Time in Therapeutic Range (TTR) is needed. The present study aimed to explore the blood coagulation monitoring of patients with mechanical heart valve in Imam Ali Hospital of Kermanshah in 2021.
