Reconstruction of the adult hemifacial microsomia patient with temporomandibular joint total joint prosthesis and orthognathic surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
HFM patients' reconstruction has always been a challenge for maxillofacial surgeons, and numerous reconstructive techniques have been described. Surgical treatment depends on the patient's age and contemplates Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) reconstruction

Shaping the human face: Periosteal bone modeling across ontogeny

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial morphology is a defining aspect of Homo sapiens that distinguishes our species from fossil ancestors and plays a central role in estimating age, sex, and ancestry in both past and present populations. Understanding how the face develops during postnatal ontogeny is essential for interpreting adult facial variation.

Hearing Without Ears [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We report on on-going work investigating the feasibility of using tissue conduction to evince auditory spatial perception. Early results indicate that it is possible to coherently control externalization, range, directionality (including elevation ...

Aplasia of the mandibular condyle [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Journal of Orthodontics, 1997
Aplasia of the mandibular condyle is extremely rare when not seen as a part of a syndrome. A case, apparently with no soft tissue aberrations, is described and a possible connection with the hemifacial microsomia syndrome is discussed.

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Bone Remodeling Following Compressive Force on Mandibular Condyle

open access: yesBiology
Excessive mandibular growth is largely affected by genetic factors and its orthodontic management is challenging. The present study utilized histophotometry and aimed to investigate immunohistochemical alterations in rat condyles following posterior ...

The lower jaw of Devonian ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii): Anatomy, relationships, and functional morphology

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Actinopterygii is a major extant vertebrate group, but limited data are available for its earliest members. Here we investigate the morphology of Devonian actinopterygians, focusing on the lower jaw. We use X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to provide comprehensive descriptions of the mandibles of 19 species, which span the whole of the Devonian

Effects of stretch on chondrogenic differentiation of rat condylar fibrocartilage stem cells

open access: yesKouqiang hemian waike zazhi
[Objective:] To investigate the effect of mechanical stretch on the chondrogenic differentiation of rat condylar fibrocartilage stem cells (FCSCs). [Methods:] Triple-lineage induction was used to verify the multi-lineage differentiation ability of rat ...

Distal femoral morphology as a risk factor for osteoarthritis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability affecting millions of adults in the United States, commonly resulting in the need for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to restore mobility and quality of life. This study investigates potential differences in baseline distal femoral shape between individuals who received TKA due to OA and a ...

Immunohistochemical Analysis of IL-1 Receptor 1 In the Discs of Patients with Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objective Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) may affect a patient’s quality of life, and one of the etiologies can be anterior disc displacement with reduction (ADDwR) and anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDWoR).
