Introducing Novel Surgical Clinical Correlations Into an Undergraduate Medical Anatomy Course
ABSTRACT Anatomy education is a hallmark of many preclinical medical school curricula, but students are often unable to identify the clinical relevance of anatomy and its applications. Vertical curricula that integrate clinical concepts into the preclinical basic science years and vice versa have been shown to benefit student learning and increase ...

A role for the collagen I/III and MMP-1/-13 genes in primary inguinal hernia? [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Abnormal collagen metabolism is thought to play an important role in the development of primary inguinal hernia. This is underlined by detection of altered collagen metabolism and structural changes of the tissue in patients with primary ...

Comparative analysis of comorbidity, surgical complications, pharmacotherapeutic needs, and rehabilitation requirements in transabdominal preperitoneal hernia repair versus conventional operative treatment—current results and benefits [PDF]
Background: Laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) inguinal hernia repair is a relatively new method of inguinal hernia surgical repair that, at theory, provides a good view of the inguinal anatomy and sac contents and, as a laparoscopic ...

Perforated sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma within an irreducible inguinal hernia: A case report
Inguinal hernia is a potentially occult common surgical condition. Its association with asymptomatic adenocarcinoma is uncommon. However, malignancy-associated perforation of the large bowel within an irreducible hernia is rare.

Self-organising maps in the analysis of strains of human abdominal wall to identify areas of similar mechanical behaviour [PDF]
The study refers to the application of a type of artificial neural network called the Self-Organising Map (SOM) for the identification of areas of the human abdominal wall that perform in a similar mechanical way. The research was based on data acquired during in vivo tests using the digital image correlation technique (DIC).

Edoardo Bassini (1844-1924): father of modern-day hernia surgery. [PDF]
According to Roman scripture, it was Celsus who attempted the first inguinal hernia repair in history during the first century A.D. His attempts were unsuccessful and resulted in an early recurrence of the hernia, which eventually led to the patient’s ...

MHD simulations of the eruption of coronal flux ropes under coronal streamers [PDF]
Using three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations, we investigate the eruption of coronal flux ropes underlying coronal streamers and the development of a prominence eruption. We initialize a quasi-steady solution of a coronal helmet streamer, into which we impose at the lower boundary the slow emergence of a part of a twisted magnetic ...
