Muscle forces acting on the greater trochanter lead to a dorsal warping of the apophyseal growth plate
J Anat. 2023 Sep 11. doi: 10.1111/joa.13944. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe apophyseal growth plate of the greater trochanter, unlike most other growth plates of the human body, exhibits a curved morphology that results in a divergent pattern resembling an open crocodile mouth on plain antero-posterior radiographs. To quantify the angular alignment of the growth plate and to draw conclusions about the function of the muscles surrounding it, we analyzed 57 MRI images of 51 children and adolescents aged 3-17 years and of six adults aged 18-52 years. We measured the angulation of the plate relative to the horizontal plane ...

Quantitative anatomy of the large variant right hepatic vein: A systematic three-dimensional analysis
This study aimed to evaluate anatomical variations of the right hepatic vein using quantitative three-dimensional visualization analysis. Computed tomography images of 650 patients were retrospectively analyzed, and three-dimensional visualization was applied using the derived data to analyze large variant right hepatic veins. The proportion of the large variant right hepatic vein was 16.92% (110/650). According to the location and number of the variant right hepatic veins, the configuration of the right hepatic venous system was divided into seven subtypes. The length of the retrohepatic inferior vena cava had a positive ...

Establishing a veterinary anatomy core syllabus through a modified Delphi process
This study aimed to create a set of LOs which reflect the recommended core requirements for a new graduate veterinarian. A consensus approach using a modified Delphi method was used. The Delphi panel consisted of 23 experienced and active veterinary anatomy educators from veterinary schools within the UK and Ireland. The process had four stages: (1) Research team review, pre-screening and modification of a list of existing LOs (adapted from the Core Regional Anatomy Syllabus) which then formed the initial set of outcomes sent for review; (2) Delphi Round 1; (3) Delphi Round 2; (4) Post-Delphi final screening and review. Qu...

Muscle morphology and architecture of the medial gastrocnemius between typically developing children with different ancestral background
J Anat. 2023 Aug 30. doi: 10.1111/joa.13945. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMuscle ultrasonography is frequently used to improve the understanding of musculoskeletal impairments in children with spastic cerebral palsy (SCP). So far, most studies on muscle morphology and architecture have included typically developing children and children with SCP with similar ancestry, being mainly Caucasian. Less is known about differences in muscle morphology between children with different ancestral backgrounds. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare muscle morphology and architecture of the medial gastrocnemius in typically de...
