Secularism, Gender and Masculinity in Nineteenth‐Century Cremation in Europe and the USA

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This essay explores, from transnational perspectives, the early history of modern cremation, which developed in the long nineteenth century with secularist connotations. I argue that the beginnings of modern cremation were shaped by bourgeois men who claimed certain identifiers for themselves in a gendering and Othering way.

A Comparative Study of Thiel Soft-embalmed and Formalin Preserved Cadavers for Anatomy Dissection

Acta Medica Philippina, 2019
Background and Objective. Cadavers are the main teaching and learning tools utilized by faculty and students of Gross Anatomy. The conventional procedure of using formalin to preserve cadavers has its limited benefit due to its obnoxious odor, darkened color, indistinguishable small structures, rigid joints, with friable organs and tissues.

Functional compartmentalization of the anconeus: A three‐dimensional study of muscle morphology and innervation patterns

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this anatomic study of anconeus utilizing dissection, digitization and 3D modeling, anconeus was found to have three distinct parts: proximal, distal, and deep. Each part had unique morphology, architecture and innervation, indicating different roles in forearm pronation, elbow extension, and joint stabilization.

An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

Anatomical Study With Clinical Significance of the Buccomandibular Space: A Complementary Ultrasonographic Study to Cadaveric Dissection

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 474-481, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The buccomandibular space is a potential space located within the oral and maxillofacial regions. This morphological study aimed to provide a detailed anatomical description and ultrasonographic examination of the buccomandibular space and its adjacent structures, to discuss its clinical significance—particularly in relation to pathological ...

A quantitative, biomechanical analysis of radioulnar deviation between fresh frozen and soft embalmed human forearms

The FASEB Journal, 2013
Fresh frozen human cadaveric specimens are considered the gold standard for biomechanical research; however, the testing period of these specimens is limited because they decay rapidly, can be difficult to obtain and can carry infectious diseases. Therefore, various chemical fixation methods to deal with these issues have been developed.
