Ontogeny of the malleus in Mesocricetus auratus (Mammalia, Rodentia): Systematic and functional implications for the muroid middle ear

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The three mammalian auditory ossicles enhance sound transmission from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear. The anterior anchoring of the malleus is one of the key characters for functional classification of the auditory ossicles. Previous studies revealed a medial outgrowth of the mallear anterior process, the processus internus ...

Tooth eruption status and bite force determine dental microwear texture gradients in albino rats (Rattus norvegicus forma domestica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

Perichondrium - An Autologous Substitute for Temporalis Fascia in Type I Tympanoplasty: A Comparative Study

open access: yesBengal Journal of Otolaryngology and Head Neck Surgery, 2019
Introduction  Temporalis fascia is the commonly used graft material for tympanic membrane reconstruction. Tragal perichondrium share with the fascia the quality of being mesenchymal tissue. In our study we compared perichondrium and temporalis fascia in

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Impact of external oblique intercostal plane block on postoperative pain and opioid consumption after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: A systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia
Background and Aims: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is effective for treating obesity but frequently causes significant postoperative pain. This meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of the external oblique intercostal plane block (EOIB)

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

A narrative review on fascial plane blocks – Part A: Anatomical foundations and mechanistic insights

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia
Fascial plane blocks (FPBs) have transformed perioperative analgesia by shifting attention from individual nerves to the complex architecture of fascia and its dynamic role in nociceptive modulation.
