Particular hyperpigmentation of the soft palate
Pan African Medical Journal, 2018 A 64-year-old patient went to our private practice for a follow-up visit. The medical history reported mild hypertension, she was taking statins to control cholesterol and she reported to be positive for hepatitis B without however having had symptoms and signs of disease.

Mechanical modeling of palatal snoring [PDF]
, 1995 The mechanism of human snoring caused by vibration of the soft palate and the characteristics of the noise are investigated. The soft palate becomes unstable and vibrates violently once the inspiratory flow exceeds a critical speed.

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...

Flow-Structure Interaction in the Upper Airway: Motions of a Cantilevered Flexible Plate in Channel Flow with Flexible Walls [PDF]
, 2007 The present work seeks to elucidate the flow-structure dynamics of the upper airway so that improved clinical strategies for the alleviation of snoring and sleep apnoea can be developed and applied on an evidence basis.

Early life functional transitions impact craniofacial morphology in osteogenesis imperfecta
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Early life behaviors have a profound role in shaping adult craniofacial morphology. During early life, all mammals undergo the dynamic transition from suckling to mastication, a period coinciding with rapid cranial biomineralization. Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a genetic disorder that impacts the production of type I collagen, disrupts ...
