Framing anatomical variation in anatomy textbooks: Language use and its implications

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Text mining of anatomy textbooks shows “abnormal” is the most frequently used descriptor for anatomical variation, reinforcing a binary framing. We advocate for explicit teaching of variation as a spectrum, with consistent, neutral terminology and contextualization (prevalence and functional relevance) to support a more nuanced understanding of ...

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Comparative treatment effects of direct oral anticoagulants versus warfarin for nonvalvular atrial fibrillation in clinical practice vary over time due to channelling

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Temporal shifts in patient characteristics can influence comparative treatment effects within a certain indication. We investigated patient characteristics and comparative effectiveness and safety for direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and warfarin over the time period where DOACs replaced warfarin as preferred stroke prophylaxis in patients with ...

Hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine surface‐engineered bioprosthetic heart valves with anti‐calcification, anti‐infection, and durability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The challenges of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV) with respect to calcification, infection, and poor durability are tackled by surface engineering of hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine (HBPL), providing a translational solution to improve long‐term valve performance.

Innovation of plant‐derived extracellular vesicles and interdisciplinary research: From discovery to biomedical applications

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived extracellular vesicles offer numerous advantages and are regarded as highly promising candidates in the field of biomedicine. Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are double‐membrane vesicular structures that can be secreted by nearly all living cells.

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Bilateral Symmetry and Variation of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Inferior Thyroid Artery Patterns: An Intraoperative Study of 150 Nerves

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The anatomical relationship of the inferior thyroid artery (ITA) and the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is highly variable. This study aims to evaluate bilateral RLN branching patterns and their relationship to the ITA within the same patient, predicting contralateral anatomical variations and ultimately reducing intraoperative risk of RLN ...

A Novel Anatomical Description of the Normal Terminal Fibular Artery and the Terminal Fibular Window: Radiological Findings and Surgical Implications

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A novel anatomical description and radiological finding, related to the anatomical course of the terminal fibular artery (FibA) was recently reported. In the article, the authors found the terminal FibA to change its course, from being posterior and medial to the fibula to surface anteriorly and laterally before residing below the tibiofibular

Redefining the Surface Anatomy of Major Abdominal Structures in an Adult Population: A Computed Tomography Evaluation

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inconsistencies exist in anatomy and clinical reference texts regarding the vertebral levels of major abdominal structures. Accurate surface anatomy is essential for diagnostic interpretation and interventional procedures, yet little is known about how health status or pathology may influence the vertebral relationships of abdominal organs ...
