Surgical outcomes of intramedullary spinal cord ependymomas

, 2020
Intramedullary Spinal Cord Ependymomas (ISCE) are uncommon pathologies that need to be aggressively managed before clinical deterioration sets in. Novel application of different therapeutic strategies is being assessed for improving long-term outcomes in

Quantitative muscle architecture in large carnivorous marsupials (Marsupialia: Dasyuridae) and links to substrate use and prey processing

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dasyurid species Sarcophilus harrisii, Dasyurus maculatus, and Dasyurus viverrinus, occupying diverse ecological niches and forming a guild structure in Tasmania, provide a basis for examining the roles of various forelimb muscle groups in prey capture and locomotion.

Biologic and Targeted Synthetic Disease‐Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs Do Not Arrest Bone Loss in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Long‐Term Multicenter Observational Study

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoporosis causes fractures that further increase the disease burden of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, osteoporosis treatment rates remain low. Although several studies have reported that biologic or targeted synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs (b/tsDMARDs) can prevent or improve osteoporosis in RA, our large‐scale, real ...

Determinants of Difficult‐to‐Manage and Treatment‐Refractory Axial Spondyloarthritis: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis Within a Longitudinal Cohort

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of difficult‐to‐manage (D2M) and treatment‐refractory (TR) axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and to identify factors associated with D2M and TR disease in a longitudinal cohort. Methods We performed a cross‐sectional analysis on data from the Schroeder Arthritis Institute Spondylitis ...

Imaging of tumors of the spinal canal and cord.

, 1988
Magnetic resonance is the best noninvasive modality for imaging the size, shape, position, and presence or absence of compression of the spinal cord. MR is less optimal than CT for the assessment of intrinsic bone abnormalities.

T cells, the Next Big Target in Axial Spondyloarthritis?

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by complex immune dysregulation, with T cells playing a central role in its pathogenesis. In this review, we synthesize current knowledge on diverse T cell subsets in axSpA, their pathogenic mechanisms, and emerging therapeutic strategies targeting these cells. We highlight

Production of 3D printed biomodels of the canine brain for veterinary neuroanatomy teaching

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers, as it is a subject with highly dense content that commonly causes the development of aversion by students, a phenomenon referred to as “neurophobia,” which has been documented in human and veterinary medicine students.
