New fossil unveils the dentary anatomy of the rare lepidosauromorph Cargninia enigmatica from the Upper Triassic of Southern Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Nowadays, Lepidosauria is a diverse group represented by squamates and the rhynchocephalian tuatara. However, their origins date back to the end of the Permian Period, when the stem lineages Lepidosauromorpha and Archosauromorpha diverged. Within the lepidosauromorph stem lineage, a few species have been described with unstable phylogenetic ...

Exploring the Link Between the Gut Microbiota and Epigenetic Factors in Anorexia Nervosa

Brain and Behavior
Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is an often chronic eating disorder that involves genetic, neurohormonal, and epigenetic factors along with key contributions from the microbiota–gut–brain axis.

TGFβ signalling maintains Sox4+ astrocyte progenitors and restricts the early differentiation of BLBP+ astrocytes in the mouse dentate gyrus

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
Astrocytes in the mouse hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) derive, at least in part, from BLBP+ cells, but the mechanism that controls the onset of their differentiation remains poorly understood.

Comparative analysis of cytoarchitectonic and neurochemical aspects of the globus pallidus in the rock cavy (Kerodon rupestris) and the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The globus pallidus (GP), a subcortical structure within the basal ganglia, plays a crucial role in modulating cortico‐subcortical circuits related to motor control and associative/limbic functions. However, the cytoarchitectonic and neurochemical organization of this structure remains poorly characterized in naturally existing wild‐type ...

Effectiveness of Incorporating Animated Drawings in PowerPoint Presentations for Teaching Neuroanatomy to First-phase MBBS Students

National Journal of Clinical Anatomy
Background: Using traditional PowerPoint (tPPT) as a teaching tool for cross-sections in neuroanatomy can limit interactive engagement and the depth of spatial understanding needed for complex anatomical structures.

Assessment of intraspecific skull variation in the Campanian baenid turtle Plesiobaena antiqua

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Baenids are freshwater paracryptodiran turtles with a fossil record ranging from the Early Cretaceous to the Eocene. The baenid Plesiobaena antiqua is the most common turtle in the Campanian (Late Cretaceous) Dinosaur Park Formation in Canada, but the apparent intraspecific variation remains poorly understood.

Enhancing student performance with multicolored 3D printed neuroanatomical models in veterinary education

BMC Medical Education
Background The neuroanatomy course consistently presents significant challenges, primarily due to the short lifespan of formalin-preserved brain specimens and their restricted availability. Numerous studies have evaluated the strengths and limitations of

Role of spatial ability, motivation and anxiety in learning neuroanatomy.

, 2022
Introduction: In the last decade, medical student neuroanatomy knowledge has been below an acceptable level. Teaching interventions targeted towards factors relevant to learning neuroanatomy, such as spatial ability or motivation, may be developed to ...

Production of 3D printed biomodels of the canine brain for veterinary neuroanatomy teaching

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers, as it is a subject with highly dense content that commonly causes the development of aversion by students, a phenomenon referred to as “neurophobia,” which has been documented in human and veterinary medicine students.

Development of interactive MRI‐based 3D visualization tools for neuroanatomy education in Latin America

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The study of neuroanatomy is fundamental in many scientific fields. Despite this, it is a challenging subject for students. As technology evolves, it is being increasingly incorporated into educational methods, including the teaching of neuroanatomy. Three‐dimensional (3D) visualizations are well suited for displaying neuroanatomy.
