In elastic and resistance arteries, an elastin-rich membrane, the Internal Elastic Lamina (IEL), separates the tunica intima from the underlying tunica media. The IEL often appears wrinkled or corrugated in histological images. These corrugations are sometimes ascribed to vessel contraction ex vivo, and to fixation artifacts, and therefore regarded...

IntroductionThe physical modification of cartilage grafts during rhinoplasty risks chondrocyte death at the margins where the tissue is cut. This study compares chondrocyte viability between diced, scaled, and pate samples in human models, and further computes percent chondrocyte viability as a function of sequential dicing size in a computational ...

A new emissive guanosine analog CF3thG, constructed by a single trifluoromethylation step from the previously reported thG, displays red-shifted absorption and emission spectra compared to its precursor. The impact of solvent type and polarity on the photophysical properties of CF3thG suggests that the electronic effects of the trifluoromethyl grou...

Mapping neuronal networks is a central focus in neuroscience. While volume electron microscopy (vEM) can reveal the fine structure of neuronal networks (connectomics), it does not provide molecular information to identify cell types or functions. We developed an approach that uses fluorescent single-chain variable fragments (scFvs) to perform multi...

Refractive errors remain a global health concern, as a large proportion of the world's population is myopic. Current ablative approaches are costly, not without risks, and not all patients are candidates for these procedures. Electromechanical reshaping (EMR) has been explored as a viable cost-effective modality to directly shape tissues, including...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Data on how to teach endosonographers needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE)-guided histologic diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are limited. Hence, we developed and tested a structured educational program to train early-career endosonographers in nCLE-guided diagnosis of PCLs. METHODS: Twenty-one early-c...

PURPOSE: Small-fiber neuropathy (SFN) is known to be associated with Sjögren disease (SjD), and in vivo corneal confocal microscopy can identify features compatible with SFN. Here, we performed a descriptive study to identify features of SFN of the corneal subbasal nerve plexus using in vivo confocal microscopy. METHODS: We recruited 10 participant...

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of various irrigation protocols on the penetration depth of a calcium silicate-based sealer into dentinal tubules using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Twenty single-rooted mandibular premolars were endodontically prepared and divided into the following two groups according to the irrigation protoc...

Background: In vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is poorly investigated in oral pathology due to the peculiar anatomical and topographical oral mucosa features. A dedicated handheld confocal microscope with an intra-oral probe was developed for oral mucosa imaging. Objectives: The main objective was to describe the healthy oral mucosa and ...

PurposeTo investigate differences in outflow facility between angiographically determined high- and low-flow segments of the conventional outflow pathway in porcine eyes.MethodsPorcine anterior segments (n = 14) were mounted in a perfusion chamber and perfused using Dulbecco's phosphate buffered solution with glucose. Fluorescein angiography was pe...
