A new genus and species of sabretooth, Oriensmilus liupanensis (Barbourofelinae, Nimravidae, Carnivora), from the middle Miocene of China suggests barbourofelines are nimravids, not felids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Since the early 2000s, a revival of a felid relationship for barbourofeline sabretooths has become popular due to recent discoveries of fragmentary fossils from Africa.

Current Nationwide Landscape of Cardiac Surgery for Children With Trisomy 18 in Japan

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of retrospective cohorts describing successful cardiac surgery for children with trisomy 18, no consensus has been reached among healthcare providers regarding cardiac surgery in Japan. This study provided a benchmark to facilitate consensus building by assessing a nationwide surgical database in Japan. A total of

The HRAS Variant c.175G>A (p.Ala59Thr) Causes a Predominantly Ectodermal Phenotype Lacking Classic Costello Syndrome Features

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Costello syndrome (CS) is a rare dominant HRAS RASopathy characterized by curly hair, cardiac abnormalities, craniofacial anomalies, and developmental delay. HRAS codon 58, 59, and 60 variants are associated with milder phenotypes. We describe a three‐generation family with a previously unreported heterozygous HRAS variant c.175G>A (p.Ala59Thr)

Repurposing With Purpose: Treatment of Bachmann–Bupp Syndrome With Eflornithine and Implications for Other Polyaminopathies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rare diseases impact approximately 1 in 10 people worldwide, and yet, less than 5% of all rare diseases currently have an approved treatment option available. This is due to many challenges unique to rare diseases, including small, diverse patient populations, the cost of drug development that is not proportionate to the number of patients who

Early recurrent ischemic lesions in patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale: an observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Randomized controlled trials indicate that patent foramen ovate (PFO) closure reduces risk of stroke recurrence in patients with cryptogenic stroke and PFO. However, the optimal time point for PFO closure is unknown and depends on the risk of

Management of Cardiovascular Health Issues in Turner Syndrome: Expert Insights and Expanded Recommendations From the 2024 Guideline Development Team

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena

“Visiting scientist effect”? Exploring the impact of time‐lags in the digitization of 2D landmark data

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Measurement error (ME) in geometric morphometrics has been the subject of countless articles, but none specific to the effect of time lags on landmark digitization error. Yet, especially for visiting scientists working on museum collections, it is not uncommon to collect data in multiple rounds, with interruptions of weeks or years. To explore

Exploring the relationship between entertainment and education in anatomy public engagement: A qualitative examination of anatomists' perspectives

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Entertainment is deeply rooted in education, from wise‐cracking teachers to health documentaries. In the context of anatomy, this already complex relationship is entwined with deeply significant ethical considerations, often related to the field's reliance on human tissue, yet it remains unexplored.

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...
