Shulgan-Tash (Kapova) cave in southern Ural, Russia, is the easternmost European site hosting Late Paleolithic cave art. Most of the 195+ drawings catalogued in the cave are made with red natural pigment (ochre), and only a handful of drawings are made with charcoal, see "Catalogue of images" [4], "Höhlenmalerei im Ural: Kapova und Ignatievka; die altsteinzeitlichen Bilderhöhlen im sudlichen Ural," [5]. "Constraining the ages of the Late Palaeolithic cave paintings in the Shulgan-Tash cave, Southern Urals, Russia" [6]. None of the charcoal drawings were directly dated by C method so far. Black lines delineating a figure similar to the outline of a fox are known in the cave. Here we present data on the C AMS date of charcoal with which the lines were drawn. Calibration of the data was performed using the Bomb13NH1 dataset, see "Atmospheric radiocarbon for the period 1950-2010" [7] and the IntCal13 dataset, see "IntCal13 and Marine13 radiocarbon age calibration curves 0-50,000 years cal BP" [8]. The calibrated age distribution has maximum probability density (65.3%) between 1877 and 1918.

The Altai mountains contain a number of cave and rockshelter sites that have given crucial information about human evolution in Asia. Most of these caves are located in the Gornyi Altai of Siberia, while the southern flank of the range remains much less known. Bukhtarma Cave was a karstic cave located near the former village of Peshchera, on the banks of the Bukhtarma River running through the foothills of the southern (Kazakh) Altai mountains.

Background: Leishmaniasis is an emerging vector-borne disease that occurs in Thailand. Although Leishmania (Mundinia) parasites, the causative agents of the disease have been identified, the vectors of the disease remain unidentified. In the present study, we collected sand flies from three caves located in endemic areas of leishmaniasis, including Lampang and Chiang Rai in northern Thailand, and Songkhla in southern Thailand.

Introduction: Spirometry devices, which are components of many anaesthesia machines, are commonly used to assess lung mechanics during anaesthesia. Spirometry calibration usually adheres to manufacturer recommendations without established guidelines. Although more accurate and less variable than inbuilt spirometry in certain General Electric anaesthesia ventilators, near-patient spirometry lacks adequate evaluation.

Guilin is a world-famous karst area characterized by a high concentration of Ca in its groundwater. The disintegration of red clay plays a key role in the collapse of soil caves. In order to study the disintegration mechanisms of unsaturated red clay in Ca solution, disintegration tests were conducted using a self-made disintegration apparatus.

Article Synopsis
- Congenital ocular anomalies (COA) are a leading cause of visual impairment in children in high-income countries, and this study aimed to evaluate their prevalence in European registries.
- Data from 19 EUROmediCAT registries and one healthcare database revealed a prevalence of COA at 3.47 cases per 10,000 births, with congenital lens anomalies being the most common type.
- The findings suggest the need for better screening and early diagnosis of COA, highlighting the importance of large-scale epidemiological studies for understanding these conditions.
