‘Escaping Isn't for Everyone’: Kurdish Smugglers’ Navigational Tactics at Checkpoints in Iran

Development and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how Kurdish smugglers navigate state and insurgent checkpoints in the borderlands of western Iran. Drawing on ethnographic research, it analyses two key navigational tactics: persin, a form of negotiated passage involving transaction, recognition and the contingent toleration of authority; and jimi, rendered here as ...

An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

Impact of prefabricated aids and auxiliary devices for scan bodies on the accuracy of intraoral scanning for full‐arch implant impressions: A systematic review

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate, in human clinical studies, the effect of prefabricated aids/auxiliary devices for implant scan bodies (ISBs) on the accuracy (trueness and precision) of full‐arch intraoral scanning (IOS). Methods A PRISMA‐guided search (PubMed, Embase, and Scopus; registered in PROSPERO (CRD420251027002)) identified comparative clinical ...
