Sonographic localisation of lymph nodes suspicious of metastatic breast cancer to surgical axillary levels

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 119-138, March 2025.
Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...

Tenotomy versus Tenodesis in the treatment of the long head of biceps brachii tendon lesions

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2012
Background The superiority of tenotomy vs. tenodesis for surgery on lesions of the long head of the biceps brachii tendon is still under debate. Indeed, high-quality evidence is lacking, mainly because of methodological problems, such as retrospective ...

Sono‐Anatomy and Histology of the Deep Fasciae in the Upper Limb

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
The deep fascia of the upper limb represents a pivotal anatomical structure essential for effective force transmission, dynamic compartmentalization and musculoskeletal stability. Its composition (rich in type I collagen fibers) enables both mechanical resilience and functional adaptability, crucial for the upper limb's complex movements.

Qihuang Needle Therapy for Motor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) often respond incompletely to medication, highlighting the need for effective adjunctive therapies. Acupuncture may offer benefits, but high‐quality evidence for specialized techniques such as Qihuang needle therapy is lacking.

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Muscle Strength and Power Changes With Gender‐Affirming Hormone Therapy

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Androgen receptors are highly expressed in upper body muscles, but changes in maximal muscle strength and power in major upper body muscles have not been investigated during gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT). Objective To assess prospective changes in maximal muscle strength and muscle power from before and after 1 year of ...

The effect of full‐limb flexion tests on static and dynamic muscle activity and locomotion asymmetry in owner‐sound horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Flexion tests are commonly used in equine locomotion examinations to identify underlying locomotor issues, yet their neuromuscular effects remain poorly understood. Response variability raises concerns about their clinical value in lameness assessments and pre‐purchase evaluations.
