Development of the nasal capsule in Emydura subglobosa (Testudines: Pleurodira) with a comparison to other turtles

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Extant turtles occupy freshwater, marine, and terrestrial habitats, and their nasal region provides important evidence for the evolution of respiration‐ and sensory‐related cranial morphology. However, developmental data on the turtle nasal capsule remain limited, particularly in Pleurodira.

The vestibular system: A spatial reference for bodily self-consciousness

Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2014
Self-consciousness is the remarkable human experience of being a subject: the ‘I’. Self-consciousness is typically bound to a body, and particularly to the spatial dimensions of the body, as well as to its location and displacement in the gravitational ...

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 ...

Vestibular Modulation of Sympathetic Nerve Activity to Muscle and Skin in Humans

Frontiers in Neurology, 2017
We review the existence of vestibulosympathetic reflexes in humans. While several methods to activate the human vestibular apparatus have been used, galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) is a means of selectively modulating vestibular afferent activity ...

Minimal virtual reality‐induced symptoms and effects in anatomy education across controller types

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract With the increasing adoption of virtual reality (VR) in anatomy education, understanding VR‐induced symptoms and effects (VRISE) is pivotal to effective curriculum design. To compare self‐reported VRISE across different VR controller types, the study included 199 responses from students aged 18–54, enrolled in visceral anatomy or neuroanatomy ...

Learning beyond the lab: A gamified approach to anatomy education in a museum‐based experience

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy education, traditionally rooted in descriptive instruction and cadaveric dissection, is undergoing a significant transformation through the integration of educational technologies and contemporary pedagogical strategies. Among these, active learning methodologies, such as gamified‐based learning, have emerged as approaches designed to ...

Histamine and the mechanisms of nausea and vomiting: Translating the uncertain pharmacology of cyclizine

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyclizine is a long‐established, short‐acting drug, registered for preventing motion sickness, post‐operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ‘vomiting of known cause’. The latter is not defined but may include pregnancy and patients receiving palliative care, historically accepted without large, controlled trials.

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 ...

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 ...

Opsoclonus in Pediatric Patients: Differential Diagnosis and a Practical Approach to Evaluation

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Opsoclonus is an ocular dyskinesia characterized by involuntary, arrhythmic, multidirectional saccades. In pediatrics, opsoclonus is most commonly attributed to the rare neuroinflammatory disorder opsoclonus‐myoclonus‐ataxia syndrome (OMAS), typically considered a paraneoplastic syndrome associated with neural crest tumors. However, opsoclonus
