Effects of oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation on the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base in minipigs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypoglossal nerve or tongue protruding muscle stimulation is a current treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea. Thus, the present study analyzed 3D deformations of the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base upon oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation.

Mathematical Modeling of Mitral Valve Dynamics: Nonlinear vs Linear Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
A tractable mathematical model of the valve dynamics is developed for the real time computations and in silico planning of the biomechanically consistent surgery on the ruptured chordae of the mitral valve.

Early stages of tooth development in the harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Here we describe the stages of tooth development in toothed whales on the basis of the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). The aim of the study was to find out whether these stages are identical to those of other mammals analyzed so far although toothed whales are homodont and monophyodont.

Inter-observer variability for cardiac ultrasound measurements in cats repeated at different time points in early adult life [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A high degree of accuracy is required when using echocardiography to diagnose hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats, as variation in measurements of 0.5 mm may affect classification of individuals as ‘abnormal’.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Experimental papillary muscle infarction

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1968
Summary The concept of papillary muscle dysfunction has been evaluated in dogs. The papillary muscle was infarcted without altering the other components of the mitral valve mechanism, and the animals were evaluated at varying intervals by auscultation, cardiac catheterization, cineangiography, and autopsy.

Laterally positioned flap with connective tissue graft to treat deep isolated gingival recessions in the mandibular anterior region: A retrospective case series with 10‐year follow‐up

open access: yesClinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To evaluate the efficacy and long‐term clinical outcomes of the one‐stage procedure for covering isolated deep gingival recessions (GRs) in the mandibular anterior region employing a laterally positioned flap (LPF) with a connective tissue graft (CTG), with a retrospective case series.
