Intraspecific variation of cochlear morphology in bowhead and beluga whales

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The bony labyrinth of the petrosal bone, a distinctive feature of mammal skulls, is often identified in micro‐computed tomography imaging to infer species' physiological and ecological traits. When done as part of a comparative study, one individual specimen is normally considered representative of a species, and intraspecific variation is ...

Energy localisation and frequency analysis in the locust ear [PDF]

, 2013
Animal ears are exquisitely adapted to capture sound energy and perform signal analysis. Studying the ear of the locust, we show how frequency signal analysis can be performed solely by using the structural features of the tympanum.

Cochlear-bone wave can yield a hearing sensation as well as otoacoustic emission

, 2014
A hearing sensation arises when the elastic basilar membrane inside the cochlea vibrates. The basilar membrane is typically set into motion through airborne sound that displaces the middle ear and induces a pressure difference across the membrane.

Clinic manifestations in granulomatosis with polyangiitis [PDF]

, 2016
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), formerly Wegener's granulomatosis (WG), is an uncommon immunologically mediated systemic small-vessel vasculitis that is pathologically characterised by an inflammatory reaction pattern (necrosis, granulomatous ...

The concept of an artificial tympanic membrane [PDF]

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1984
A review is given of the development of the concept of an artificial tympanic membrane. Starting with homologous tympanic membranes we compared biodegradable collagen materials (homologous and heterologous) and biodegradable synthetic materials, poly-glycolic acid, poly-lactic acid and poly-alpha-amino acids.

What does it mean? Translating anatomical language to engage public audiences

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The language of anatomy, with its roots in Ancient Greek and Roman languages, is complex and unfamiliar to many. Its complexity creates a significant barrier to public knowledge and understanding of anatomy—many members of the public find themselves asking “what does it mean?”, and this can manifest as poor health literacy and outcomes.

Application of blood plasma enriched with platelet derived growth factors in experimental perforation of the tympanic membrane

Медицинский совет, 2019
Acute traumatic perforation of the tympanic membrane occupies a significant place in the structure of the pathology of the middle ear, since «persistent» perforation of the tympanic membrane is the main cause of chronic inflammation in the middle ear ...

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Measurement of Vibrating Tympanic Membrane in an In Vivo Mouse Model Using Doppler Optical Coherence Tomography

Journal of Imaging, 2019
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has a micro-resolution with a penetration depth of about 2 mm and field of view of about 10 mm. This makes OCT well suited for analyzing the anatomical and internal structural assessment of the middle ear.
