A contribution to the anatomy of two rare cetacean species: The hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of

Does salinity make a difference—Kidney anatomy of Saimaa (Pusa saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract As habitat salinity markedly differs between the endangered, freshwater‐dwelling Saimaa ringed seal (Pusa saimensis Nordquist, 1899) and the brackish water‐inhabiting Baltic ringed seal (Pusa hispida botnica Gmelin, 1788), we investigated whether this difference has resulted in morphological changes to their kidneys.

Late‐Onset Spondyloarthritis Presenting as Glucocorticoid‐Resistant Polymyalgia Rheumatica: A Hitherto Underappreciated Entity in Which Tumor Necrosis Factor or Interleukin ‐17 Blockade May Have a Therapeutic Role

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is an age‐related inflammatory disease with shoulder/hip girdle involvement. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reveals extracapsular/entheseal soft tissue involvement in both PMR and spondyloarthritis (SpA), with sacroiliac joint and perientheseal spinal bone marrow edema (BME) being characteristic of SpA ...

Case‐Based Immunology: B Cells and Systemic Sclerosis Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc), with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to US Food and Drug Administration–approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of ILDs of other systemic autoimmune

Reactive Oxygen Species–Induced Modifications of Fibrin Clots as a Link Between Immune Responses and Atherothrombosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiovascular events are major determinants of morbidity and mortality in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), particularly in patients with renal involvement. Although oxidative stress has been implicated in driving vascular and renal damage in SLE, the specific mechanisms remain unclear.
