Safety and Efficacy of Pelvic Reinforcement Procedure for Preventing Postoperative Perineal Hernia After Robotic Abdominoperineal Resection: A Single‐Center, Retrospective Cohort Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of pelvic reinforcement procedure (PRP) in robotic abdominoperineal resection (Ro‐APR). PRP‐ had a significantly higher rate of imaged perineal hernia (PH) (39.2% vs. 6.7%, p = 0.005) and symptomatic PH (19.6% vs.

The Experience of People With Urinary Incontinence Using Invasive Devices in Pelvic Floor Muscle Training: A Qualitative Study. [PDF]

Physiother Res Int
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is a first‐line conservative treatment for urinary incontinence (UI), often involving invasive devices such as vaginal or anal biofeedback. However, these devices can cause discomfort, negatively impacting PFMT engagement.

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

Influence of adequate pelvic floor muscle contraction on the movement of the coccyx during pelvic floor muscle training

Journal of Physical Therapy Science, 2018
[Purpose] Pelvic floor muscle training is a first-line therapy for female stress urinary incontinence. Previous studies have suggested that the coccyx tip moves ventrally and cranially during pelvic floor muscle contraction. The study aimed to elucidate the influence of adequate pelvic floor muscle contraction on coccyx movement. [Subjects and Methods]

“The tactile realness of ‘life’ is hitting me in the face”: Unprompted student reflections of dissection using formalin‐ and Thiel‐embalmed donors

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract There is a wide variety of preservation techniques available, and anatomy departments can select an embalming method(s) that best suits their course outcomes. Thiel embalming is becoming popular due to the life‐like color and flexibility it provides tissue.

Lineage labeling with zebrafish hand2 Cre and CreERT2 recombinase CRISPR knock‐ins

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The ability to generate endogenous Cre recombinase drivers using CRISPR‐Cas9 knock‐in technology allows lineage tracing, cell type‐specific gene studies, and in vivo validation of inferred developmental trajectories from phenotypic and gene expression analyses. This report describes endogenous zebrafish hand2 Cre and CreERT2 drivers
