Small RNAs and extracellular vesicles in filarial nematodes: from nematode development to diagnostics [PDF]

, 2016
Parasitic nematodes have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to communicate with their hosts in order to survive and successfully establish an infection. The transfer of RNA within extracellular vesicles (EVs) has recently been described as a mechanism that

Phylogenetics and species delimitations of the operculated land snail Cyclophorus volvulus (Gastropoda: Cyclophoridae) reveal cryptic diversity and new species in Thailand

Scientific Reports, 2019
Recent conceptual and practical advances in phylogenetic species delimitation have enabled progressively robust biodiversity studies. Delimiting species in widespread taxa is an intriguing problem; the edible operculated land snail Cyclophorus volvulus ...

Volvulus of the ileal pouch–anal anastomosis: a meta-narrative systematic review of frequency, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes

Gastroenterology Report, 2019
Background Proctocolectomy with ileal pouch–anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the surgical procedure of choice for medically refractory ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis. While rare, a pouch volvulus can occur.

Introducing Novel Surgical Clinical Correlations Into an Undergraduate Medical Anatomy Course

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anatomy education is a hallmark of many preclinical medical school curricula, but students are often unable to identify the clinical relevance of anatomy and its applications. Vertical curricula that integrate clinical concepts into the preclinical basic science years and vice versa have been shown to benefit student learning and increase ...

Long‐term home parenteral nutrition in chronic intestinal failure following metabolic and bariatric surgery and its clinical outcomes: A descriptive cohort study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Metabolic and bariatric surgery is one of the most efficacious treatments for obesity. The increasing incidence of referrals to intestinal rehabilitation programs and the necessity for long‐term parenteral nutrition because of bariatric surgery complications have gained attention, yet data remain limited.
