Hamman's crunch—A pathognomonic sign of pneumomediastinum

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Pneumomediastinum, particularly spontaneous pneumomediastinum, is uncommon and presents a diagnostic challenge. In human medicine, auscultation of Hamman's crunch, a crepitant, crunching noise, audible over the cardiac region in synchrony with the heartbeat, is considered pathognomonic for pneumomediastinum.

Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Perioperative Transfusion Trigger Score Versus Restrictive Transfusion in Older Non‐Cardiac Surgery Patients: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Restrictive transfusion (Hb < 7 g/dL) is recommended for most perioperative patients, but the optimal threshold for those with cardiovascular disease or Hb 7–10 g/dL remains uncertain. The Perioperative Transfusion Trigger Score (POTTS), which integrates adrenaline requirement, FiO2, temperature, and angina history, may standardize ...

Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

The role of antibiotics in preventing surgical complications in periodontology and implant dentistry

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Antibiotics are commonly prescribed in periodontal and implant surgeries, either before, during or after surgery, to prevent postoperative infection and reduce early implant failure. However, the potential benefits may be undermined by the risks of resistance and sensitization, thus requiring a strict indication for prescription.

Phase I/II Prospective Study on Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Hepaticogastrostomy as Primary Drainage for Unresectable Malignant Hilar Biliary Obstruction

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Various drainage methods have been used for unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO). However, controlling cholangitis and obstructive jaundice is still challenging. We performed a phase I/II study of endoscopic ultrasound‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (EUS‐HGS) as primary drainage for MHBO.

Endoscopic Thrombin Injection for Gastric Variceal Bleeding: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Observational and Trial Data

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objective The safety of endoscopic thrombin injection (ETI) for treating the bleeding of gastric varix (GV) in patients with portal hypertension requires further evaluation. This meta‐analysis systematically reviews the available evidence on the efficacy and safety of ETI for GV bleeding.
