Early Endoscopic Repair of Traumatic Skull Base Dural Injuries: Challenging the Dogma of Conservative Management

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Traditional management of traumatic skull base dural injury has often favored observation and conservative therapy, despite the risk of delayed intracranial complications. This paradigm originated when operative intervention required craniotomy and carried significant morbidity.

Efficacy and Predictors of Response to Biologic Therapy and Endoscopic Sinus Surgery in Patients With Nasal Polyps: A Systematic Review

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biologics and endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) treat refractory chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP), but direct comparisons are lacking. We synthesized efficacy and subgroup data across randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of biologics and ESS.

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a heterogeneous inflammatory syndrome of the paranasal sinuses that is defined phenotypically as either with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) or without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). More recently, inflammatory markers have been used to cluster patients into putative endotypes that are presumed to have a common ...

Elliptic Fourier analysis as a tool for the taxonomic identification of isolated theropod pedal phalanges

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies of Upper Cretaceous deposits in North America have provided invaluable insights into the continental ecosystems of this time. Theropod (Saurischia, Dinosauria) pedal phalanges are commonplace in these deposits but can be difficult to identify at a finer taxonomic resolution.

The mechanism of labor in nonhuman primates: A look inside

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract While in humans, the flexed position of the fetus and its rotating course down the birth canal are well documented, in other primates the mechanism of labor is unknown. Despite the lack of comparative data, it is commonly assumed that the human obstetric mechanism is unique, and anthropologists have disputed when and why the transition to the ...

Evaluating Bergmann's and Allen's rules in the long bones of the eastern gray squirrel

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecogeographical rules predict variation in body size and appendage proportions across climatic gradients, yet intraspecific tests using long bones from wild populations remain limited among small mammals. This study tests the hypothesis that eastern gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) conform to Bergmann's rule, that is, body size increases ...
