Descriptive, comparative, and functional anatomy of the facial musculature in cattle (Bos taurus)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial expressions can provide insight into animal emotions and pain, but no standardized system for assessing the entire facial display in cattle (Bos taurus Linnaeus) exists. The Facial Action Coding System (FACS), originally developed for humans, identifies distinct facial movements based on mimetic muscles.

The management of benign parotid disease

Discover Oncology
Parotid gland tumor is the most common salivary gland tumors. Benign tumors account for about 80% of parotid gland tumors. However, due to the special anatomical location of the parotid gland and the different pathology of the tumor, there are many complications after parotid gland tumor operation, which also seriously affects patients' quality of life.

Radiotherapy for parotid IgG4‐related disease [PDF]

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, 2018
AbstractWe describe the use of radiotherapy for parotid IgG4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD), initially misdiagnosed as Kimura's disease, with sustained good partial response in a 37‐year‐old male. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of radiation for extra‐orbital IgG4‐RD, albeit inadvertently.

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

Sonographic biometry of apparently normal parotid gland among adults in Asaba, South-South Nigeria

Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University Journal
Background: Detecting subtle changes in the parotid gland size can be difficult when there are no established reference values in a specific area. This can affect patient management and delay early detection of diseases.

Clock Genes Regulate Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics to Inhibit Sjögren Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Ca2+ signaling and metabolism have been identified as key determinants for the development of Sjögren disease (SjD), the intricate connection between them and salivary gland physiology remains poorly understood. Methods Fluorescence‐based Ca2+ imaging, RNA sequencing, and mitochondrial activity were used to investigate the effects of
