Introduction: Preterm birth may significantly impair the functional and anatomical development of the respiratory system and could be a background for various life-long medical sequelae. Prematurity has been recently connected to changes in hypercapnic reactions at adult age. Altered reactions to pCO in premature-born subjects may impact breath-hold underwater exercises (freediving) results.

Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to conduct a thorough and contemporary assessment of maternal and neonatal outcomes associated with water birth in comparison with land-based birth.
Data Sources: We conducted a comprehensive search of PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, and gray literature sources, from inception to February 28, 2023.
Study Eligibility Criteria: We included randomized and nonrandomized studies that assessed maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients who delivered either conventionally or while submerged in water.
Building Cetacean Locomotor Muscles throughout Ontogeny to Support High-Performance Swimming into Adulthood.

The demands on the locomotor muscles at birth are different for cetaceans than terrestrial mammals. Cetacean muscles do not need to support postural costs as the neonate transitions from the womb because water's buoyant force supports body weight. Rather, neonatal cetacean muscles must sustain locomotion under hypoxic conditions as the neonate accompanies its mother swimming underwater.

Department of Engineering Mathematics, University of Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom.
Significant progress in fabricating new multifunctional soft materials and the advances of additive manufacturing technologies have given birth to a new generation of soft robots with complex capabilities, such as crawling, swimming, jumping, gripping, and releasing. Within this vast array of responsive soft materials, hydrogels receive considerable attention due to their fascinating properties, including biodegradable, self-healing, stimuli-responsive, and large volume transformation. Konjac glucomannan (KGM) is an edible polysaccharide that forms a pH-responsive, self-healing hydrogel when crosslinked with borax, and it is the focus of this study.

This article handles tracking multiple targets using bearing-only measurements in underwater noisy environments. For tracking multiple targets in underwater noisy environments, the Gaussian Mixture Probability Hypothesis Density (GM-PHD) filter provides good performance with its low computational load. Bearing-only measurements are passive and do not provide position information of a target.
