An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

Hypocholesterolemia in liver and cardiovascular disease: Friend or foe?

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypocholesterolemia is perceived as benign given its association with lower cardiovascular risk. However, genetic and epidemiological evidence indicates that persistently low levels of low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) arise from distinct biological mechanisms with different hepatic implications ...

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Soft‐Tissue Integration of Dental Implants: Formation, Maintenance, and Relevance for Peri‐Implant Health

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Sixty years after the introduction of dental implants, it is clear that soft‐tissue integration is as essential as osseointegration. This review outlines how peri‐implant soft tissues develop, protect, and sometimes fail, revealing key knowledge gaps and new opportunities to improve long‐term implant stability.

Pre‐Operative Intraoral Ultrasound Features of Benign and Malignant Oral Lesions: An Exploratory Pilot Study

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate intraoral‐ultrasound (ioUS) features of benign and malignant oral lesions. Methods In this prospective cross‐sectional study, patients with oral soft tissue lesions underwent ioUS followed by biopsy within 2 weeks. Sonographic features: size, echogenicity, cystic areas, calcifications, margins, and vascularity were ...
