A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Using Decision Tree to Analyze Relation between Aortic Aneurysm and Chronic Diseases in Clinical Application

open access: yes, 2019
[[abstract]]Aortic aneurysm is caused by sclerosis of aortic wall. However, bad habits and chronic disease would be caused sclerosis of aortic wall. Therefore, bad habits and chronic diseases would possible affect aortic aneurysm, even after surgery.

Three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of diaphragmatic dome motion in COPD patients

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Diaphragmatic dysfunction is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially in emphysema, where hyperinflation alters diaphragm geometry and impairs inspiratory mechanics. However, quantitative three‐dimensional (3D) assessments of diaphragmatic dome shape and motion across COPD phenotypes are limited.

Cardiac morphological and morphometric analysis of Ardea alba

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ardea alba (Linnaeus, 1758) is a widely distributed heron species whose cardiovascular morphology remains poorly described. This study aimed to characterize the cardiac morphology and morphometry of adult A. alba. Ten specimens were analyzed using radiographic, morphometric, histological, scanning electron microscopy, and three‐dimensional ...

SOX6 is expressed in various cell lineages in the developing mouse heart and contributes to proper valvuloseptal development

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cells derived from the endocardium, epicardium, cardiac neural crest, and second heart field play a critical role in the formation of the valvuloseptal structures of the heart. Previous studies have shown that the expression of the transcription factor SOX9 in these cell populations is essential in the regulation of this process.

Descriptive, stratigraphic, and morpho‐functional study of the myocardium and myocardial bridges in domestic pig hearts

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The heart is the central organ of the cardiovascular system. The myocardium is composed of a three‐dimensional network of fibers arranged in clockwise and counterclockwise helices, which are essential for proper cardiac contraction. This study aimed to describe the stratigraphic and morpho‐functional pattern of the porcine myocardium to ...

Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Age‐Associated B Cells Contribute to Inflammation Via Antibody‐Independent Mechanisms in Takayasu Arteritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is not a prototypical autoantibody‐mediated disease, accumulating evidence suggests that B cells are involved. This study aimed to investigate the pathway of B cell activation and its contributions to TAK pathogenesis. Methods Histologic analysis of paravascular lymph nodes and affected arteries was conducted

King Aorta: Narrative anatomy education

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 264-276, March 2025.
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of narrative anatomy education and traditional anatomy education on academic achievement. The study included 64 students who were randomly divided into two groups. The two groups were (n = 32) control (Group 1) and (n = 32) experimental (Group 2). The pretest scores of the two groups were 36.
