This study aimed to determine the depth from the skin surface to the parotid fascia, which encompasses the parotid gland. The anatomical properties of the parotid glands were evaluated in 40 patients using ultrasonography. An up-to-date understanding of the localization of botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injection based on anatomy could lead to better localization of the injection into the parotid gland through morphological measurements using data previously published from cadaveric studies. Measurement using the otobasion inferius as a landmark revealed parotideomasseteric fascia thickness averaging 4-6 mm from the skin surface, with the parotid gland extending approximately 15 mm anteriorly. Analysis showed a 3-7 mm thickness range, indicating an optimal injection depth for safety and efficacy in BoNT procedures. Utilizing the otobasion inferius as an anatomical landmark offers a practical approach for measuring parotideomasseteric fascia thickness, addressing cadaveric study limitations. These guidelines aim to maximize the effects of BoNT therapy, which can be useful in clinical settings, by minimizing its deleterious effects.","PeriodicalId":7831,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy & Cell Biology","volume":" ","pages":"498-502"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11663514/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142387380","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We found maximum cases with 2 and 3 major hepatic veins which indicate presence of confluence. Confluence between left and middle hepatic veins was highest with 38% of total 54% of cases with confluence. We also found confluence between middle and accessory hepatic vein which is not mentioned in any present classifications. In addition, we have measured confluence length and diameter which holds significance in hepatic resection and anastomosis. The mean confluence length was 0.88±0.39 cm while mean confluence diameter was 0.57±0.20 cm. We found accessory hepatic veins in 15% of cases.

Anatomical observation of these areas is challenging for learners due to their complex connections with surrounding structures and their deep location within the body. Since it is not easy to understand this area in three dimensions with only textbook images, there is a need to produce three-dimensional (3D) content. Most existing 3D data have reconstructed the digital imaging and communication in medicine files from computed tomography images with high accuracy; however, the surrounding structures often obstruct the view. For this reason, this project utilized Cinema4D (R18) software to refine the modeled bones and to create 3D models of muscles, blood vessels, and nerves that accurately represent their anatomical shapes and pathways.

The COW is of immense clinical importance especially with regard to the assessment of neurovascular diseases. Individuals portray significant variations in the COW's anatomical configuration. The present study seeks to evaluate the existing anatomical variations of the COW and within the anterior and posterior segments of the COW. Thus, the study seeks to evaluate the different anatomical variations of the COW and its segments and components within the study population. To attain the set objectives, the present study has utilized the angiographic images for studying the COW variants in patients who underwent cerebral angiography during assessment of different types of cerebral anomalies and conditions. Therefore, this study used conventional angiography as an important tool in the evaluation of the different variations in the COW, and is most appropriate for evaluation of smaller anatomical variations owing to its perfect spatial resolution and portrayal of COW anatomy. The study findings indicated the existence between age and sex, and anatomical variations of the COW, particularly with regard to diameters of COW components like basilar artery (BA), P1, and internal carotid arterys (ICAs). Males had bigger BA, P1 and ICA diameters than females, while individuals aged below 40 years had bigger BA, A1, posterior communicating artery, and ICA diameters than those aged above 40 years.","PeriodicalId":7831,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy & Cell Biology","volume":" ","pages":"579-591"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11663527/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142103683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its effectiveness in central nervous system disorders like vascular dementia (VaD) remains underexplored. This study investigated the potential of PRP to mitigate VaD progression in vivo. A rat model of VaD was established via bilateral common carotid artery occlusion and hypovolemia operation. Rats were randomly assigned to receive either PRP or platelet-poor plasma (PPP)-the latter being a byproduct of PRP preparation and used as a reference standard-resulting in the groups designated as 'operated group (OP)+PRP' and 'OP+PPP', respectively. PRP or PPP (500 μl) was administered intraperitoneally on the day of the operation and postoperative days 2, 4, 6, and 8. Cognitive function was assessed using the Y-maze, Barnes maze, and passive avoidance tests. On postoperative day 8, hippocampal samples were subjected to histological and semi-quantitative analyses. OP exhibited significant memory decline compared to controls, while the 'OP+PRP' group showed notable improvement. Histological analysis revealed increased neuronal loss and neuroinflammation in OP hippocampi, mitigated in 'OP+PRP'. Semi-quantitative analysis showed decreased expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and its receptor tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) in OP, restored in 'OP+PPP' and further in 'OP+PRP'. These results highlight PRP's protective effects against VaD-induced hippocampal damage and cognitive impairment, partially attributed to BDNF/TrkB pathway upregulation.","PeriodicalId":7831,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy & Cell Biology","volume":" ","pages":"559-569"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11663515/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142008104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the axial plane, the vertical distance from the upper facet surface to the exiting nerve root and root-disc distance was also measured. On the sagittal plane, foraminal height, diameter, nerve root-disc distance, and nerve root-pedicle distance were measured. On the coronal plane, right and left α angle was 50.78±4.43 (range, 48.52-51.84 degrees) and 51.07±4.08 (range, 49.25-51.91) degrees, respectively.

A total of 10 adult lower limbs were dissected, and nerve branches to adductor muscles were carefully exposed up to their MEP. The morphometry of adductor muscles, precise locations of proximal and distal MEPs, and ideal sites for motor point procedures were identified. The median number of MEPs in adductor longus was two. Most of them were located between 40% and 50% of the muscle length i.e., in the third-fifth of the total muscle length. Adductor magnus and gracilis had a median number of one and six MEPs respectively. The ideal site of motor point procedures is in the second-fifth of the muscle length for both.
