Cardio vascular conditions like atherosclerosis are the major cause of mortality and morbidity in the ultramodern society. The rupture of atherosclerotic plaque can induce thrombus conformation, which is the main cause of acute cardiovascular events. Lately, numerous studies have demonstrated that there are some connections between microbiota and atherosclerosis. There are three metabolite pathways by which gut microbiota can affect atherosclerosis. Either original or distant- causing inflammation which might lead to atherosclerotic plaque formation and rupture. Second, metabolism of lipids and cholesterol by gut microbiota can affect atheromatous atheromatous plaque conformation. Third, diet and specific factors that are metabolized by gut microbiota can have various effects on atherosclerosis; for illustration, salutary fiber is beneficial, whereas the bacterial metabolite trimethylamine- N- oxide (TMAO) is considered dangerous. We'll conclude by discussing new remedial strategies for targeting gut microbiota to ameliorate atherosclerosis and related cardiovascular issues.","PeriodicalId":91698,"journal":{"name":"Indian journal of clinical anatomy and physiology","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135760069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The FCI arises from the posterior-medial aspect of the distal 1/3 of the fibula, descends posterior and lateral to the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) muscle. It than traverses the tarsal tunnel inferior to the sustentaculum tali of the Calcaneus, and get inserted into the plantar surface of the calcaneus. However, controversy exists concerning the exact location of the insertion site of FCI muscle. Recently the insertion of the FCI muscle has been described as distal to the coronoid fossa, a small depression between the anterior tuberosity and the anterior apex of the sustentaculum tali of the calcaneus. However, chronological descriptions described the FCI as inserting into either the sustentaculum tali itself or a small tubercle on the medical surface of the calcaneus distal to the sustentaculum tali. During routine dissection for under graduate students, about 56-year old Indian male, a Fibulocalcaneus (peroneocalcaneus) Internus (FCI) muscle was identified, which originated from the posterior medial surface of distal third of the fibula and tendon merges with 2 slip of flexor digitorum longus and get inserted on base of distal phalanx of second toe. Knowledge of the FCI muscle is important due its involvement with various ankle pathologies, including predisposing individuals to tarsal tunnel syndrome, FHL tenosynovitis, and posterior ankle impingement and pain. The FCI muscle is one of the least common muscular variants associated with the ankle joint, and it has been implicated in posterior ankle pain and impingement. This muscle is often confused with the flexor digitorum accessorius longus (FDAL) muscle. Additionally, this study describes ways to differentiate between the FCI and FDAL muscles in the lower leg. Radiologists and clinicians should be aware of this anomalous muscle when considering various diagnoses, interpreting radiographs, and pursuing surgical involvement to reduce symptoms of posterior ankle region.","PeriodicalId":91698,"journal":{"name":"Indian journal of clinical anatomy and physiology","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135760329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The suprascapular nerve is commonly compressed at the suprascapular notch, which can result in severe shoulder pain, weakness of the arm, restricted range of movement, and eventually, atrophy of the muscles supplied by the nerve. The syndrome of suprascapular nerve entrapment is a significant differential diagnosis of shoulder pain. Unfortunately, it is often neglected while diagnosing shoulder pain or discomfort. Our study's main objective is to examine how often different morphological variations occur in the suprascapular notch and their potential role in causing suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome. We grossly examined 70 scapula to identify the presence, absence and type of suprascapular notch. We documented the observed variations of the suprascapular notch by capturing photographs and organizing the findings in a table. According to our findings, Type 3 (U-shaped notch) was the most frequently observed morphological variation of the suprascapular notch, while Type 1 (absence of suprascapular notch) was the least commonly found. Our findings provide fresh perspectives when compared to prior research. Having knowledge of the morphological variations of the suprascapular notch plays a vital role in accurately diagnosing suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome using non-invasive diagnostic imaging and planning the most suitable surgical interventions.","PeriodicalId":91698,"journal":{"name":"Indian journal of clinical anatomy and physiology","volume":"172 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135760339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review article evaluates alternative natural and chemical substances for embalming fluid in cadaveric dissection. We conducted a comprehensive literature search on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, focusing on alternative embalming fluids in the past 20 years. The main outcome of interest was the effectiveness of alternative fluids in preserving cadavers for dissection. The review identified several alternatives, including Thiel's solution, modified Larssen solution, Genelyn, and natural alternatives such as honey and essential oils. Thiel's solution has emerged as a popular alternative, providing excellent preservation and flexibility of cadavers. However, the high costs and the need for specialized equipment limit its widespread adoption. Essential oils and honey have also shown potential as effective, environmentally friendly alternatives to formalin. Future research should optimise the composition and application of these alternatives to improve their cost-effectiveness, feasibility, and environmental impact.","PeriodicalId":91698,"journal":{"name":"Indian journal of clinical anatomy and physiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47043268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adequate sleep is essential for homeostasis. Lack of adequate sleep is one of the major public health issues and needs major attention. Prolonged insomnia leads to excessive anxiety and suicidal ideation. The existing pharmacological therapies are effective and associated with side effects. Hence, there is a need for alternative therapy with minimum or no side effects. The vestibular system consists of minute sensory receptors which are basically for regulating posture. However, the vestibular system involves multiple functions related to homeostasis from the level of reflexes to the level of cognition. That is the reason why the vestibular system is called the sixth sense. There are multiple methods to stimulate the vestibular system. Linear stimulation by swinging on a swing, caloric stimulation, vestibular exercises, and electrical vestibular nerve stimulation. Whatever the method adopted, the important thing is the amount of stimulation applied. It should be an optimal stimulus to get beneficial effects from vestibular stimulation. Electrical vestibular nerve stimulation is a safe and non-invasive mode of stimulating the vestibular nerve. Animal studies demonstrated that rhythmical linear acceleration in mice promotes sleep. Here we review the mechanisms behind the sleep-promoting actions of vestibular stimulation. Understanding the mechanisms helps to plan the management of sleep disorders effectively.","PeriodicalId":91698,"journal":{"name":"Indian journal of clinical anatomy and physiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44997946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
