EVALUATION OF WHITNALL SLING PROCEDURE FOR MODERATE TO SEVERE CONGENITAL BLEPHAROPTOSIS WITH FAIR TO POOR LEVATOR FUNCTION

The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2016
Background: Blepharoptosis has a significant impact on patient functional status and may cause poor visual development in childhood and correction of congenital ptosis is one of the difficult challenges the ophthalmologist faces.

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Innervation of the anal canal revisited through micro‐CT imaging

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This article demonstrates to utility of micro‐CT imaging for conduction micro‐CT experiments to explore the innervation of the pelvic area in human fetuses. It allows for the creation of intricate 3D models, which show that peripheral nerve crossings occur over the entire length of the rectum and hints towards development and sex related differences in

Levator function revisited: a two-phase assessment of lid movement to better identify levator-superior rectus synkinesis.

, 2010
AIM: To assess a two-phase method of recording levator function in order to facilitate the identification of patients with ptosis who have a synkinesis between the levator and superior rectus muscles.

Reconstructing the major skull myology of the giant stem‐amphibian Mastodonsaurus: A case study for early tetrapods

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

Assessment of the long‐term outcomes of compartmental excision for treatment of infiltrative lipomas

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To describe the post‐operative long‐term outcomes including recurrence rate of infiltrative lipoma in dogs following compartmental resection compared to debulking. Materials and Methods Twenty‐nine client‐owned dogs were surgically treated for infiltrative lipoma diagnosed on histopathology or diagnostic imaging with consistent appearance at

Frontalis Transfer and Closed Silicone Rod Frontalis Suspension [PDF]

Archives of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2016
Background Improvements in the degree of marginal reflex distance 1 (MRD1) were compared before and after use of the frontalis transfer (FT) method and closed silicone rod frontalis suspension surgery (SS) for severe blepharoptosis under general or local

The Cervical Vertebral Bone Quality Score Is a Novel Reliable Index Reflecting the Condition of Paraspinal Muscles and Predicting Loss of Cervical Lordosis After Open‐Door Laminoplasty

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1406-1417, May 2025.
There is a close correlation between C‐VBQ scores and the cervical deep extensors, deep flexors, and overall paraspinal muscles relative cross‐sectional area (RCSA) and degree of fat infiltration (DFF). The C‐VBQ score is a comprehensive parameter reflecting the quality of cervical bone and paraspinal muscles.
