King Aorta: Narrative anatomy education
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.

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

ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the feasibility and short‐term outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using balloon‐expandable Sapien valves in patients with prior endovascular aortic stent grafts. Methods We conducted a single‐center, retrospective study of 23 patients with prior endovascular aortic stent grafts who underwent TAVR ...

Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...
