BackgroundNerve block of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) is a predominantly sensory block. It reduces pain following total hip arthroplasty (THA), but the non-responder rate is high. We hypothesized, that an increased volume of ropivacaine, would result in greater coverage of incisions used for THA.MethodsWe conducted a randomized, blind...

Left ventricular papillary muscles are small myocardial structures that play an important role in the functioning of mitral valve and left ventricle. Typically, there are two groups of papillary muscles, namely the anterolateral and the posteromedial groups. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is a valuable imaging modality in the evaluation of...

This article provides a study on morphological and anatomical changes during post-embryonic development of roots in plants under saline stress. The influence of salinity on the architecture of root related to the species-specificity of wheat plants is shown. The important roles of thickness of the epiblema and length of root hairs, the thickness of...

ABSTRACT Introduction: The study of the effects of different types of physical exercise on cardiovascular physiology is increasing in the literature. The many mechanisms of hemodynamic control include the atrial release of natriuretic peptides. Although extensive evidence demonstrates their acute effects and the increase in their plasma concentrati...

BackgroundTo assess anatomic risk factors for meniscal lesions in association with acute ACL rupture. The primary hypothesis was that tibiofemoral anatomic measures will be different in those with and without concomitant meniscus tears.MethodsA retrospective review of patients who underwent acute ACL reconstruction in the department was performed. ...

BackgroundConsidering vital role of renal arteries in many surgical procedures, diameter of renal arteries seems to be an important measure of kidney perfusion. In this study, we analyzed a new parameter, renal-aortic ratio (R-Ar) as an objective measure of the renal artery diameter.MethodThe study included CT angiographic images from 254 patients ...

The geometric organization of collagen fibers in human reticular dermis and its relationship to that of elastic fibers remain unclear. The tight packing and complex intertwining of dermal collagen fibers hinder accurate analysis of fiber orientation. We hypothesized that combined multiphoton microscopy and biaxial extension could overcome this issu...

Purpose of ReviewThe exstrophy-epispadias complex (EEC) represents a group of congenitally acquired malformations involving the musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary systems. Classic bladder exstrophy (CBE) is the most common and best studied entity within the EEC. In this review, imaging features of CBE anatomy will be presented wit...

BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the bone length available for coracoid transfer without coracoclavicular ligament injury and the distance from the coracoid tip to the attachments of the coracoacromial ligament or pectoralis minor. We hypothesized that cadaver height and the soft tissue attachments on ...

BackgroundVarious evidence-based and student-centered strategies such as team-based learning (TBL), case-based learning (CBL), and flipped classroom have been recently applied to anatomy education and have shown to improve student engagement and interaction. These strategies shift the focus of teaching from knowledge transmission to knowledge const...
