Medical students' perspectives on body donation to science within the Italian context

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Body donation is essential for medical education and research, supporting anatomical training and clinical competence. In Italy, national data on awareness of the legislation regulating body donation and factors shaping donation‐related decisions among healthcare trainees remain limited. This study investigated knowledge of the legal framework,

Framing anatomical variation in anatomy textbooks: Language use and its implications

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Text mining of anatomy textbooks shows “abnormal” is the most frequently used descriptor for anatomical variation, reinforcing a binary framing. We advocate for explicit teaching of variation as a spectrum, with consistent, neutral terminology and contextualization (prevalence and functional relevance) to support a more nuanced understanding of ...

Metabolic fate of drugs of abuse and new psychoactive substances: A pilot study on a novel workflow using a zebrafish embryo model combined with human microdosing

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim The aim of this study was to develop a novel workflow to identify human urine biomarkers for drugs of abuse and new psychoactive substances. Metabolites of amphetamine, cocaine, LSD, MDMA, methamphetamine, THC, MDMB‐CHMICA, and MDPPP were first identified in a zebrafish embryo (ZE) metabolism study followed by comparison to most abundant human ...

Biosensors in forensic sciences

open access: yesBiotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2011
A biosensor is a device that uses biological materials to detect and monitor the presence of specific chemicals in an area. Traditional methods of volatile detection used by law enforcement agencies and rescue teams typically consist of reliance on canine olfaction. This concept of using dogs to detect specific substances is quite old.

Mapping opioid exposure through prescription data and postmortem analysis of opioid drugs in multiple tissues

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Although opioids are central to end of life (EoL) care, tissue‐level opioid exposure remains poorly understood. The objective of this study was to characterize the relationship between prescription‐derived morphine equivalent daily dose (MEDD) and measured morphine concentrations across multiple organs.

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.
