Driven by modern technological innovations (virtual reality, augmented reality, mixed reality and interactive 3D, etc.), digital museums open up new modes of user visitation through virtual exhibition halls and interactive technologies, thus bridging the gap between the museums and their users for in-depth communication. This study explores the determinants of users' continuance intention to use digital museums based on Bagozzi's self-regulation framework. We found that appraisal factors (interaction quality, media richness, and information quality) were strong predictors of emotional reaction (satisfaction and perceived playfulness). In particular, media richness and information quality had significant effects on both satisfaction and perceived playfulness. However, interaction quality only positively affected satisfaction. Both satisfaction and perceived playfulness positively influence users' continuance intention to use digital museums. These findings enrich the literature on digital museums, offer new perspectives and supplements to existing research on user behavior in digital museums, thereby assisting developers and operators of digital museums in more effectively designing their digital systems and enhancing user experience.

Hypercanines, or hypertrophied canines, are observed in a wide range of both extinct and extant synapsids. In non-mammaliaform cynodonts, the Permo-Triassic forerunners of mammals, long canines are not uncommon, appearing in several unrelated taxa within the clade. Among them is Trucidocynodon riograndensis, a carnivorous ecteniniid cynodont from the Late Triassic of Brazil, which exhibits a specialized dentition, including spear-shaped incisors, very long and narrow canines, and sectorial postcanines with distally oriented cusps, all of which have finely serrated margins.

The advent of digital wildlife cameras has led to a dramatic increase in the use of camera traps for mammalian biodiversity surveys, ecological studies and occupancy analyses. For cryptic mammals such as mice and shrews, whose small sizes pose many challenges for unconstrained digital photography, use of camera traps remains relatively infrequent. Here we use a practical, low-cost small mammal camera platform (the "MouseCam") that is easy and inexpensive to fabricate and deploy and requires little maintenance beyond camera service.

Purpose: To trace the history of interdental brushes (IDBs) from their origins to the present, highlighting their development and future prospects compared to other interdental hygiene aids.
Methods And Materials: A literature search using digital databases, manual reviews and on-site research in museums were carried out.
Results: Although extensive literature exists on toothbrushes, flosses and toothpicks, there has been no comprehensive study of IDBs.
A Study on the Mechanisms Influencing Older Adults' Willingness to Use Digital Displays in Museums from a Cognitive Age Perspective.

As older adults age, changes in their physiological, psychological, and cognitive functions often lead to inherent anxiety and fear regarding the use of digital technologies. Cognitive age, reflecting an older adult's mental perception of their chronological age, is a crucial moderating factor in shaping their willingness and behavior towards technology adoption. However, the mechanisms through which cognitive age impacts the behavior of older adults within the realm of digital technology utilization remain unclear.

Rapid growth in bio-logging-the use of animal-borne electronic tags to document the movements, behaviour, physiology and environments of wildlife-offers opportunities to mitigate biodiversity threats and expand digital natural history archives. Here we present a vision to achieve such benefits by accounting for the heterogeneity inherent to bio-logging data and the concerns of those who collect and use them. First, we can enable data integration through standard vocabularies, transfer protocols and aggregation protocols, and drive their wide adoption.
