Spinal Involvement in Charge Syndrome: Implications for Management

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT CHARGE syndrome (OMIM #214800) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the CHD7 gene in most cases. Although originally defined by the CHARGE acronym (coloboma, heart defects, choanal atresia, growth restriction, genital hypoplasia, and ear anomalies), the recognized phenotype has expanded considerably to include highly ...

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Morphological adaptations of cervical vertebrae in plunge‐diving sulids

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Foraging strategy frequently drives morphological diversification in birds. The plunge‐diving behavior of certain species makes the functional and ecological trade‐offs of variation in cervical vertebrae an especially intriguing question. This study compares cervical vertebrae across five plunge‐diving species and two non‐plunge‐diving species,

Monitoring pharmacodynamic and molecular drug targets in liquid biopsy: Exploratory study in liver cancer with modelling of EGFR Receptor engagement

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Liquid biopsy is minimally invasive (compared with tissue biopsy) and has previously been used to generate systems data regarding drug elimination via hepatic enzymes and transporters. This study extends quantitative assessment of systems parameters in liquid biopsy to pharmacodynamic (PD) and disease markers relevant to cancer development

Solitary fibrous tumour of cervical spinal cord

open access: yesAnnals of African Medicine, 2020
Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms of fibroblastic origin. They commonly arise from visceral pleura, but also arise from nonserosal sites such as meninges, central nervous system parenchyma, and spinal cord. In the spinal cord, SFTs commonly arise from the thoracic spinal cord, followed by cervical spinal cord, lumbar spinal ...

Histamine and the mechanisms of nausea and vomiting: Translating the uncertain pharmacology of cyclizine

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyclizine is a long‐established, short‐acting drug, registered for preventing motion sickness, post‐operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ‘vomiting of known cause’. The latter is not defined but may include pregnancy and patients receiving palliative care, historically accepted without large, controlled trials.

Case report of ervical myelopathy due to ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament in association with flavum ligament ossification: MRI and CT appearance

open access: yesActa Medica Lituanica, 2013
Background. Our objective is to analyze the cervical spinal cord damage and spinal canal stenosis due to OPLL which usually affects the cervical spine and leads to progressive myelopathy in 50–60s in Asian population; to demonstrate the mixed type OPLL ...

Chiari I Malformation: Review and Update of Current Treatment Options

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pathophysiology of Chiari malformation type I (CM‐I) is complex, involving structural abnormalities at the craniovertebral junction that result in herniation of the cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum. In this study, we aim to present and evaluate current treatment options for CM‐I, with a focus on evidence‐based clinical ...

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.
