The Impact of Aging on the Anatomical Course of the Azygos Vein: A Retrospective, Computed Tomography Study

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The azygos vein (AV) is typically described as ascending vertically to the right of the vertebral column before arching anteriorly to drain into the superior vena cava. However, a small number of studies suggest that it is found leftward in older adults.

Spatiotemporal cellular dynamics of the notochord shape intervertebral disc morphogenesis in the mouse embryo through apoptosis and proliferation

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The notochord is a midline structure essential for vertebrate embryogenesis, contributing to the development of the nervous system, digestive tract, and vertebral column. In particular, notochord signaling is indispensable for proper patterning and coordinated development of alternating vertebrae and intervertebral discs (IVDs ...

Matching TGF‐β1 Activation With Stress‐Responsive Charge‐Reversal Hydrogel Microspheres for the Treatment of Osteoarthritis

Exploration, EarlyView.
Based on the interaction between the weakly cross‐linked disulfide bonds that break under stress and charge‐reversal messenger molecules, we herein achieved nanoparticle charge reversal under stress and constructed a stress‐responsive charge‐reversal hydrogel microsphere system using microfluidic technology.

The Paleoenvironment of the Ndutu Bed at Olduvai Gorge in the Context of Middle Stone Age Expansion in Eastern Africa: A Multiproxy Approach to Ungulate Analyses From the Victoria Cabrera Site and Dorothy Garrod Site (MIS 5)

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study of the Eastern African archaeological record is essential for understanding the origin and evolution of the Middle Stone Age (MSA). However, Olduvai Gorge, one of the primary regions in human evolution studies, has few sites associated with the MSA.

Integrated Clinical Trial and Molecular Profiling Reveals Immune Drivers of Chronic Hand Eczema

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study performed an unbiased molecular profiling of CHE patients across diverse etiologies to identify shared pathogenic drivers and evaluate the impact of IL‐4Rα blockade via dupilumab over 16 weeks. CHE shows a mixed immune signature involving type 1, 2, and 3 pathways with features of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.
