A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Batch Informed Trees (BIT*): Informed Asymptotically Optimal Anytime Search

, 2020
Path planning in robotics often requires finding high-quality solutions to continuously valued and/or high-dimensional problems. These problems are challenging and most planning algorithms instead solve simplified approximations.

KONFUSIANISME SEBAGAI SABUK PENGAMAN RRT [PDF]

Paradigma: Jurnal Kajian Budaya, 2020
<p>The slogans propagated by Chinese leader Hu Jintao—namely “rise in peace”, “a harmonious socialist society”, and “a harmonious world”—reflects the country’s age-old Confucian values. Considering the fact that the PRC only recognizes communism as the state ideology and that Confucianism was subjected to harsh criticism during the Cultural ...

Association between triglyceride glucose–body mass index and acute kidney injury and renal replacement therapy in critically ill patients with sepsis: analysis of the MIMIC-IV database

Frontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundPrevious studies have linked kidney damage to insulin resistance (IR), yet the association between triglyceride glucose–body mass (TyG–BMI) index, a reliable marker of IR, and acute kidney injury (AKI) remains unclear.MethodsPatient data were ...

Evaluation of Therapeutic Opioids in Skin‐Derived Matrices (Sweat and Sebum) of Neonatal and Pediatric Patients and Their Role in Opioid Incorporation Into Hair

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Concentration ranges, dose–concentration relationships, and metabolite‐to‐parent drug ratios of therapeutic opioids were evaluated in hair and skin swab samples of 150 pediatric patients. Skin‐derived matrices such as sweat or sebum were shown to contribute to analyte incorporation into hair in a systematic manner.
