Immersive virtual reality as a teaching tool in neuroanatomy: A scoping review

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Basic core courses in various undergraduate programs, such as neuroanatomy, pose a challenge for students due to the large volume and complexity of the content. In this context, educational technologies such as immersive virtual reality (IVR), which allow students to actively interact with learning materials, offer a complementary pedagogical ...

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Spatio-temporal dynamics of sound-induced vestibular processing: insights from stereo-EEG recordings

NeuroImage
Numerous functions rely on the activation of the vestibular system, resulting in widespread activation of cortical brain regions. However, although the topographical organization of vestibular processing is relatively well understood, the temporal ...

Anatomical Study and Classification of Foramina of the Squamous Part of the Temporal Bone

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The postglenoid foramen (PGF) is a rarely reported anatomical variant of the temporal bone, with limited data on its morphology, prevalence, and clinical relevance, particularly in non‐European populations. This study aimed to investigate the anatomy and frequency of foramina located on the squamous part of the temporal bone, including the PGF,

The relationship between motor proficiency, bilateral vestibular hypofunction and dynamic visual acuity in children with congenital or early acquired sensorineural hearing loss

, 2010
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 105-115).The functional integrity of the vestibular system in children is not often tested. Due to the close relationship between the cochlea and the peripheral vestibular system, the function of the vestibular

Autonomic Plexuses of the Female Sexual Organs Travel Within Pubocervical and Rectovaginal [Endopelvic] Fascia: A Rationale for ‘Nerve‐Aware’ Vaginal Prolapse Repair

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The connective tissue support of female pelvic viscera—endopelvic fascia—has been studied in fetal and immunohistochemical models to demonstrate its relationship with the autonomic nerves of the female pelvis. Due to a paucity of literature examining the gross anatomical relationships between endopelvic fascia and autonomic nerves in adult ...

Beyond balance: The role of the Vestibular system in action recognition

Heliyon
Background: Action recognition is a fundamental aspect of human interaction. This process is mediated by the activation of shared sensorimotor representations during action execution and observation.

Reconsideration of the So‐Called “Someya's Sinew String”: An Anatomical Structure or a Postoperative Scar?

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The so‐called Someya's sinew string is a linear structure observed in the buccal mucosa distal to the mandibular second molar and is primarily recognized in Japanese prosthodontic practice. Although previous studies have described its prevalence and clinical importance, particularly during impression procedures for removable prostheses, its ...
