Human cerebral arterial morphogenesis explored by 3D microscopic imaging of cleared embryos: Bridging the gap between embryonic and adult anatomy

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We provide a description of human embryonic cerebral arterial development based on whole‐mount immunostaining, tissue clearing, three‐dimensional (3D) light‐sheet microscopy imaging, and anatomically informed virtual segmentation of human embryos. Findings are compared with adult radiological anatomy. We provide a detailed account of the development of

Reconstructing the major skull myology of the giant stem‐amphibian Mastodonsaurus: A case study for early tetrapods

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

Hyoid bone-based sex discrimination among Egyptians using a multidetector computed tomography: discriminant function analysis, meta-analysis, and artificial intelligence-assisted study

Scientific Reports
The hyoid bone has been identified as sexually dimorphic in various populations. The current study is a forerunner analysis that used three-dimensional multidetector computed tomography (3D MDCT) images of the hyoid bone to examine sexual dimorphism in ...

Desmin is not ubiquitously expressed in head and neck muscle fibers

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Desmin is not ubiquitously expressed in human head and neck muscle fibers. A subset of fibers showed absent or very weak desmin immunoreactivity, with corresponding reduction or absence of desmin mRNA expression. Abstract Desmin, a major muscle‐specific intermediate filament protein, is widely regarded as a ubiquitous component of mature skeletal ...

Management of traumatic hyoid bone fractures:A case series [PDF]

, 2016
Purpose: Hyoid bone fractures are uncommon, reported mainly in cases of hanging. There is a paucity of reports involving other mechanisms, and only a handful of case reports are available to guide the management of these fractures, especially within the ...

The Dynamics of Pharyngeal Shortening in Healthy Swallowing: Effects of Sex, Age, Bolus Volume and Consistency

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Pharyngeal shortening can be indexed by tracking the location of the upper oesophageal sphincter (white star) relative to the cervical spine, with segments numbered according to an extended VERT scale with three segments per vertebra and one segment for each intervertebral space from C7 to C2.

Gender Determination Using the Hyoid Bone: A Discriminant Function Analysis

Acta Medica Iranica
The hyoid bone, with its unique morphology, offers a valuable alternative for gender determination in cases where traditional indicators like the pelvis and skull are compromised. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between gender and hyoid

Evaluation of Lingual Tactile Sensitivity Using a Pneumatic Multi‐Point Stimulation Device

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
A pneumatic multi‐point stimulation system was developed to quantify lingual sensory function by simulating the movement and elasticity of food within the oral cavity. The system revealed significant age‐related declines in tactile sensitivity for both detection of stimulus point movement during passive touch and discrimination of stimulus point ...

The Effect of Different Mandibular Advancement Devices on Sleep Parameters in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Obstructive sleep apnea arises from repeated upper airway collapse during sleep, causing apnea events. Mandibular advancement devices (MADs) treat this by advancing the mandible to open the airway. Three device types—conventionally manufactured (Mundgleiter) and CAD/CAM‐manufactured (OPTISLEEP, Narval CC)—were compared, with an average mandibular ...
