Gonadal development in scorpion mud‐turtles, Kinosternon scorpioides, in a controlled environment

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Stage 20 was identified as the critical point for gonadal differentiation in Kinosternon scorpioides, providing key insights into sex determination. These findings enhance conservation strategies by supporting reproductive management and population viability in both in situ and ex situ programs. Abstract Research on gonadal development including sexual

Experimental Tityus serrulatus scorpion envenomation: age- and sex-related differences in symptoms and mortality in mice

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2011
Among the various methods for evaluating animal venom toxicity, the calculation of the median lethal dose (LD50) is the most widely used. Although different protocols can be used to calculate the LD50, the source of the venom and the method of extraction,

Arthroscopic One‐to‐One Anchor, Double‐Row Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Rotator cuff repair aims to achieve stable tendon‐to‐bone healing while restoring the anatomic footprint and minimizing tension. Although single‐row and double‐row constructs are widely used, double‐row repairs have showed biomechanical advantages, including broader footprint coverage, improved force distribution, and reduced gap formation ...

Autologous Palmaris Longus Tendon Augmentation for Large to Massive Rotator Cuff Tears

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This technical note describes an arthroscopic technique that utilizes the autologous palmaris longus (PL) tendon to augment large to massive rotator cuff tears when complete repair is not feasible. The PL tendon is harvested through a minimal wrist incision and delivered intramuscularly into the supraspinatus and/or infraspinatus using a ...
