Vitamins as potent cancer treatments through regulating the activity and expression of MMP‐2 and MMP‐9

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Vitamins could regulate both MMP‐2 and MMP‐9 expression and activity through transcriptional and MAPK signaling pathway modulation. This study highlights the potential of vitamins as low‐toxicity therapeutic or adjunct agents for targeting MMP‐mediated cancer progression. Abstract Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP‐2 and MMP‐9) are key regulators of cancer

Diet of bird‐like troodontid dinosaurs: synthesis of a contentious clade

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Troodontidae is a clade of small‐to medium‐sized maniraptoran theropods that mainly lived in Laurasia (modern Asia, North America and Europe) during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods and are believed to have had a variety of diets. The uniqueness of troodontid teeth suggests that they diverged from the typical flesh‐based diet of non‐avian ...

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.

Retrieval Practice Through an Integrated Anatomy Laboratory Experience in a Doctor of Physical Therapy Curriculum

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gross anatomy is a foundational first‐year component of Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) curriculum, with limited future vertical integration. Retrieval practice and spaced learning to enhance retention are rarely embedded in second‐year DPT coursework.

Laterally positioned flap with connective tissue graft to treat deep isolated gingival recessions in the mandibular anterior region: A retrospective case series with 10‐year follow‐up

open access: yesClinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To evaluate the efficacy and long‐term clinical outcomes of the one‐stage procedure for covering isolated deep gingival recessions (GRs) in the mandibular anterior region employing a laterally positioned flap (LPF) with a connective tissue graft (CTG), with a retrospective case series.

Cervical hydrosonography in pregnancy to assess cervical length by transabdominal ultrasound

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2000
Some women's cervices cannot be evaluated because they are obscured by obesity or vertex-presenting fetuses. Measuring cervical length in these cases is difficult or impossible.We hypothesized that the problem of obscured cervices on transabdominal ultrasound could be resolved by introducing sterile water into the vagina, creating a hydroacoustic ...
