Knowledge Retention of Undergraduate Medical Students in Regional Anatomy Following a One-Month Gross Anatomy Course Setting

Education Sciences
Background: In the achievement of optimal learning outcomes, knowledge retention presents a major concern for medical students and educators. Practical dissection courses facilitate the consolidation of knowledge of anatomy. Previously, it was shown that

Functional compartmentalization of the anconeus: A three‐dimensional study of muscle morphology and innervation patterns

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this anatomic study of anconeus utilizing dissection, digitization and 3D modeling, anconeus was found to have three distinct parts: proximal, distal, and deep. Each part had unique morphology, architecture and innervation, indicating different roles in forearm pronation, elbow extension, and joint stabilization.

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

Journal 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 ...

Do dental undergraduates think that Thiel-embalmed cadavers are a more realistic model for teaching exodontia? [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction: Teaching exodontia to novice undergraduates requires a realistic model. Thiel-embalmed cadavers retain the flexibility of the soft tissues and could be used to teach exodontia.Objective: The objective was to determine whether Thiel-embalmed

Funeral embalming

Science & Technology Studies, 2009
This paper studies the trajectory of modern embalming, considered as a technical innovation in the treatment of dead bodies, across time and societies. Tracing the history of technical innovations, it examines the evolution of embalming from the fi eld of medical science to its re-appropriation by a secular sphere (funeral sector).
