Multimodal Characterization of Glymphatic‐Related Magnetic Resonance Imaging Markers in Huntington's Disease: A Multi‐Cohort Retrospective Study

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective To characterize magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐based glymphatic surrogates in Huntington's disease (HD) using MRI measures of perivascular diffusivity and structural perivascular alterations across multiple large cohorts. Methods We analyzed 2,731 MRI sessions from 880 participants across 3 large retrospective HD cohorts.

The morphology of the oval window in Paranthropus robustus compared to humans and other modern primates

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Statistical shape modeling of the human inner ear through micro‐computed tomography imaging

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
In this study, 54 cadaveric temporal bone specimens underwent high‐resolution micro‐CT imaging. Images were semi‐automatically segmented and converted to 3D surface mesh models for morphological measurement and analysis. Statistical shape models were created for the inner ear, cochlea, and vestibular system, as well as for sex‐ and side‐based subgroups.
