Reverse engineering applied to a lumbar vertebra [PDF]

, 2007
Bone studies can be made in vivo or in vitro. However, disadvantages of both traditional techniques call for a compromise between the two. Reverse engineering allows in vitro bone samples to be simulated and analysed in a virtual in vivo environment thus

Novel application of gamification to support undergraduate anatomy: Student perceptions and performance

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy is a foundational component of various medical and paramedical disciplines. Existing research has suggested that games or game elements can improve student interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy. This project builds on previous gamification and serious game work and incorporates new anatomy‐based games into undergraduate anatomy ...

Switching disease‐modifying therapies in patients with spinal muscular atrophy: A systematic review on effectiveness outcomes

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
With multiple disease‐modifying therapies now available, treatment switching has become an important clinical consideration in the management of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). While some switches are prompted by suboptimal clinical response, more commonly they are driven by treatment burden, convenience, or adverse events.

Cost‐utility analysis of nusinersen–risdiplam switch in patients with spinal muscular atrophy in Croatia: A discrete event simulation model

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Introduction In recent years, the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a rare disease, has significantly progressed, improving patients' survival and overall quality of life. However, current SMA treatments are expensive, and some (nusinersen) are very inconvenient for patients.

Mitigating subtherapeutic cabozantinib exposure after prior mitotane therapy in adrenocortical carcinoma: Pharmacological boosting with cobicistat

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Mitotane is an adrenolytic drug with cytotoxic effects, registered for the treatment of advanced adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), a rare but aggressive tumour type with a poor prognosis despite treatment. Recently, the oral multi‐kinase inhibitor cabozantinib has shown promising results as a potential second‐line treatment option.

Pulmonalis or Pulmonaris? It's Elementarius, My Dear Watson

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The adjectival suffix ‐alis and its allomorph ‐aris are very common in the anatomical nomenclature; however, rules governing differential usage, such as ‐aris substituting for ‐alis following an ‐l‐, leave many exceptions. Here, we report an empirical study of 985 adjectives with ‐alis and ‐aris suffixes used in Terminologia Anatomica (2nd ed.)
