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...

Strong desmin immunoreactivity in the myocardial sleeves around pulmonary veins, superior caval vein and coronary sinus supports the presumed arrhythmogenicity of these regions
In conclusion, this study indicates that desmin is abundant in the conduction system and venous myocardial sleeves of human hearts.PMID:37626442 | DOI:10.1111/joa.13947 (Source: Journal of Anatomy)

Bronchial tree of the human embryo: Examination based on a mammalian model
J Anat. 2023 Aug 21. doi: 10.1111/joa.13946. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe symmetry of the right and left bronchi, proposed in a previous comparative anatomical study as the basic model of the mammalian bronchial tree, was examined to determine if it applied to the embryonic human bronchial tree. Imaging data of 41 human embryo specimens at Carnegie stages (CS) 16-23 (equivalent to 6-8 weeks after fertilization) belonging to the Kyoto collection were obtained using phase-contrast X-ray computed tomography. Three-dimensional bronchial trees were then reconstructed from these images. Bronchi branching from both main bron...

Craniodental ecomorphology of the large Jurassic ichthyosaurian Temnodontosaurus
We describe the range of tooth morphologies in the genus in detail, including the first examples of serrated carinae in ichthyosaurians. These consist of false denticles created by the interaction of enamel ridgelets with the carinal keel, as well as possible cryptic true denticles only visible using scanning electron microscopy. We also find evidence for heterodonty in the species T. platyodon, with unicarinate mesial teeth likely playing a role in prey capture and labiolingually compressed, bicarinate distal teeth likely involved in prey processing. This type of heterodonty appears to be convergent with a series of other...

Does the articularis cubiti muscle really exist? Anatomical, histological, and magnetic resonance imaging study with a narrative review of literature
J Anat. 2023 Aug 11. doi: 10.1111/joa.13943. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlthough the term articularis cubiti muscle is incorporated in the official anatomical nomenclature, only sparse data about its appearance are available. It is usually described as few fibres originating from the medial head of the triceps brachii muscle and inserting to the capsule of the elbow joint. However, the most recent observations regarding the morphological relations in the posterior elbow region point towards the absence of a well-defined muscle. Therefore, this study was designed to verify the existence of the articularis cubiti muscle i...
