What Is the Pterygomandibular Raphe? A Confluence of Fasciae Rather Than a Discrete Structure
ABSTRACT The pterygomandibular raphe (PMR) has traditionally been described as a fibrous or tendinous band connecting the bucinator (BM) and superior pharyngeal constrictor (SPCM) muscles. However, recent evidence has questioned its existence. This study aimed to reevaluate the anatomy of the pterygomandibular region by preserving fascial continuity ...

A Unified Approach for the Synthesis of Conformationally Locked and sp2‐sp3 Fused Hybrids
This study presents a systematic platform to build rigid sp2–sp3 hybrids via benzyne cycloadditions. Arene‑fused bicyclic oxa‐, aza‐, and carbocycles are converted into medicinally relevant amino acids and applied to Enalapril analogues synthesis. The hybrids combine aromatic interactions with 3D rigidity, tuning lipophilicity, pKa, and solubility ...
