Association of DPP4 with esophageal stricture progression and the Hippo‐YAP pathway

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study establishes a comprehensive translational platform for esophageal stricture (ES) research by integrating a novel rat model with clinically relevant porcine validation. This study identifies DPP4 as a gene of interest associated with ES following endoscopic submucosal dissection, demonstrating that prophylactic DPP4 inhibition attenuates ...

PbAT: A user‐friendly R/Shiny platform for data‐driven decision support in crop improvement

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Modern plant breeding requires robust analysis of complex, multi‐environment datasets to identify superior genotypes. Although R offers powerful statistical packages, their use often requires programming expertise. Existing graphical user interface (GUI)‐based tools are either limited in scope or not openly accessible, leaving breeders

BarnebyLives: An R package to create herbarium specimen labels and clean spreadsheets

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Accessioning herbarium specimens is labor intensive, yet remains vital for research in ecology, evolution, and conservation. As institutional support for herbaria declines, efficient tools are needed to streamline this process. The R package BarnebyLives was developed to assist collectors by supplementing collection notes, verifying ...

Over the edge: Empirical evidence for the cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection maintains that larger neonates and smaller birth canals confer a positive selective advantage until labor becomes obstructed and vaginal delivery is no longer possible, eliciting an abrupt reduction in fitness.

Working with laws, regularities and singularities in biology: The evolution of mammalian red blood cell size as a case study

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Phylogenetic comparative methods have been used in recent literature to work with laws and test for regularities (evolutionary associations of quantitative features) and evolutionary singularities (features that evolved in a single taxon). We analyzed these uses epistemologically, taking the evolution of red‐blood‐cell mean corpuscular volume (

Commercial Payors More Likely to Reimburse Unlisted Hip Arthroscopy Procedures Compared With Managed Care but With Similar Overall Dollar Amount

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare the reimbursement practices of public managed care (MC) insurance versus private commercial insurance (COM) for hip arthroscopy using the current procedural terminology (CPT) code 29999. Methods The CPT codes and corresponding reimbursements of hip arthroscopies that employed code 29999 performed from January 2020 to December 2024 in

Legal and ethical considerations around the use of existing illustrations to generate new illustrations in the anatomical sciences

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 289-300, March 2025.
Abstract It is likely existing anatomical illustrations are often used as the basis for new illustrative works, given not all illustrators have access to human tissues, bodies, or prosections on which to base their illustrations. Potential issues arise with this practice in the realms of copyright infringement and plagiarism when authors are seeking to

King Aorta: Narrative anatomy education

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 264-276, March 2025.
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of narrative anatomy education and traditional anatomy education on academic achievement. The study included 64 students who were randomly divided into two groups. The two groups were (n = 32) control (Group 1) and (n = 32) experimental (Group 2). The pretest scores of the two groups were 36.
