Modified transfer of the pectoralis major muscle for restoration of elbow flexion in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy: A case report

Journal of Orthopaedic Reports
Background: Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is the third most common form of muscular dystrophy. It primarily exhibits slowly progressing symmetric muscle weakness in the facial, scapular, and upper arm muscles. The loss of elbow flexion is

Advancing fetal autopsy in cases of maceration: Underwater dissection technique and its forensic relevance

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Fetal autopsy remains essential for determining the cause of intrauterine death and for supporting clinical, genetic, and forensic evaluations. However, in cases of advanced maceration, autolysis severely compromises tissue integrity, often preventing adequate identification of anatomical structures and limiting the diagnostic and medico‐legal

Deep learning-based pectoralis muscle volume segmentation method from chest computed tomography image using sagittal range detection and axial slice-based segmentation

PLoS ONE, 2023
The pectoralis muscle is an important indicator of respiratory muscle function and has been linked to various parenchymal biomarkers, such as airflow limitation severity and diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide, which are widely used in diagnosing ...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation over sensorimotor cortex disrupts anticipatory reflex gain modulation for skilled action [PDF]

, 2006
Skilled interactions with new environments require flexible changes to the transformation from somatosensory signals to motor outputs. Transcortical reflex gains are known to be modulated according to task and environmental dynamics, but the mechanism of

Development of the abdominal musculature in the chicken embryo

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigate anatomy, morphogenesis, segmental origin, and fiber formation of the abdominal musculature in the chicken embryo. We show that abdominal muscles arise from somites 24 to 28, and that the segmental identity of individual fibers in the abdominal muscle sheets is maintained.

Soft tissue abnormalities in the congenital limb malformation radial dysplasia (RD): Their clinical impact and treatment significance

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We review the characteristic changes to the limb soft tissue and neurovascular abnormalities that have been described in the congenital limb birth defect, Radial Dysplasia. These include consistent changes in muscle anatomy or absence of specific muscles, persistent median arteries and absent radial arteries and consistent alterations in neural ...
