ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Total Neoadjuvant Treatment for Esophageal Adenocarcinoma With Oligometastases: TNT‐OES‐1 Trial
Total neoadjuvant therapy could combine the potentially strong systemic effect of FLOT chemotherapy with the good locoregional control of CROSS chemoradiotherapy. While total neoadjuvant therapy is increasingly used in rectal cancer, its potential in gastroesophageal cancer remains largely unexplored.
