Efficacy of Hand Gestures and the Hand as Foot Teaching Method Compared to Traditional Methods in Medical and Dental Education: A Scoping Review

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The “Hand‐as‐Foot” teaching method is an innovative, hands‐on approach that uses gesture‐based movements to represent anatomical structures and functions. It has been used successfully in medical education to help simplify and communicate complex ideas. However, its use in dental education remains relatively unexplored.

Single muscle fiber proteomics reveals unexpected mitochondrial specialization [PDF]

, 2015
Mammalian skeletal muscles are composed of multinucleated cells termed slow or fast fibers according to their contractile and metabolic properties. Here, we developed a high-sensitivity workflow to characterize the proteome of single fibers.

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Outcomes in Orbit‐Sparing Versus Orbit‐Sacrificing Surgery for Sinonasal Malignancies With Orbital Involvement: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sinonasal malignancies with orbital involvement may be managed with orbit‐sacrificing or orbit‐preserving surgical approaches, with a recent shift towards orbital preservation to reduce postoperative morbidity while maintaining oncological success.
