Homozygous Achondroplasia With Long‐Term Survival: Growth Patterns, Medical Interventions, and Practice Implications

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Homozygous achondroplasia is widely considered perinatal lethal by the medical community. In this case series, we report two children from a single family with longer‐term survival. One child lived for 17 months and the other was 60 months at the time of publication.

Lumbar Puncture

Acute Medicine Journal, 2011
Most junior doctors learn common practical procedures, like lumbar puncture, on the job. This usually involves unstructured observation, demonstration and then supervised practice. Thus, most doctors have learned to perform a lumbar puncture without studying the theory of the procedure in any detail.

Compression suture: A method for simulating intervertebral disc degeneration in rats induced by excessive loading

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the compression suture group, a 5‐mm‐wide tail skin was removed, and then the defect was sutured to apply compressive force to the intervertebral disc. In the sham group, only the 5‐mm‐wide tail skin was removed without a compression suture. Compression suturing triggers apoptosis, inflammatory response, and imbalance of extracellular matrix ...

Refining Detection of Subclinical Epileptiform Activity in Alzheimer's Disease: A Case–Control Study and Call for a Consensus

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Sleep‐predominant network hyperexcitability is increasingly recognized as a potential disease‐accelerating comorbidity in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its prevalence and risk‐factors remain debated, largely due to cohort‐specific and methodological differences across studies.

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...
