A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

ALK1 controls hepatic vessel formation, angiodiversity, and angiocrine functions in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia of the liver

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic endothelial Alk1 signaling protects from development of vascular malformations while maintaining organ‐specific endothelial differentiation and angiocrine portmanteau of the names Wingless and Int‐1 signaling. Abstract Background and Aims In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), severe liver vascular malformations are associated with ...

Dental fluorosis in the European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus): A review of the pathological changes in the enamel of fluorotic cheek teeth and the abnormal pattern of dental wear in affected dentitions

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This article reviews the pathological changes in the enamel of permanent mandibular cheek teeth and their sequelae in European roe deer from regions polluted by anthropogenic fluoride emissions. The primary (developmental) changes of fluorotic roe deer enamel are hypomineralization and microstructural aberrations, including enamel hypoplasia ...

Isolated aneurysmal disease as an underestimated finding in individuals with JAG1 pathogenic variants

open access: yesHuman Mutation, Volume 43, Issue 12, Page 1824-1828, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Pathogenic variants in JAG1 are known to cause Alagille syndrome (ALGS), a disorder that primarily affects the liver, lung, kidney, and skeleton. Whereas cardiac symptoms are also frequently observed in ALGS, thoracic aortic aneurysms have only been reported sporadically in postmortem autopsies.

Interactive Segmentation Model for Placenta Segmentation from 3D Ultrasound images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Placenta volume measurement from 3D ultrasound images is critical for predicting pregnancy outcomes, and manual annotation is the gold standard. However, such manual annotation is expensive and time-consuming. Automated segmentation algorithms can often successfully segment the placenta, but these methods may not consistently produce robust ...

Placenta Accreta

open access: yesمجلة كلية الطب, 2007
Placenta accrete is defined as an abnormally adherent placenta that is directly attached to the myometrium because of inadequate development of the fibrinoid layer (Nitabuch layer) and absence of decidua basilis either partially or totally.

PRISM Lite: A lightweight model for interactive 3D placenta segmentation in ultrasound [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Placenta volume measured from 3D ultrasound (3DUS) images is an important tool for tracking the growth trajectory and is associated with pregnancy outcomes. Manual segmentation is the gold standard, but it is time-consuming and subjective. Although fully automated deep learning algorithms perform well, they do not always yield high-quality results for ...

Household Income, Maternal Allostatic Load During Pregnancy, and Offspring With Autism Spectrum Disorders

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Relative maternal poverty is a suggested social determinant of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) in offspring; however, this association may be confounded by the maternal broader autism phenotype (BAP). The biological mechanisms underlying this association are largely understudied.
