Currently, there are thousands of government and private schools in the country. The objective of this study is to identify who scores well in anatomy in the university; students coming from government or private schools? Methods: A cross-sectional study design was used to assess the effect of high school background on medical students’ performance in anatomy among 120 randomly selected students at Bahir Dar University College of Medicine and Health Sciences. Results: Anatomy is given for medical students as separate course in regional approach for ten months after they complete premed courses as five hours lecture and one hour practical session per week. Students than take an exam with theoretical and practical parts, after completion of each region. Out of 120 randomly selected students about 64% joined the university from government schools and the rest were from private schools. From the government school group, only 17% of the students scored low. However, out of the total private school students 40% were low scorers. There was a statistically significant correlation between school background and medical student performance in anatomy (p=0.007). The odds of private school students performance in anatomy was 3.22 times lower than those of government school students (p=0.007) Conclusion: Students graduated from government high schools perform better in academics than students graduated from private schools.","PeriodicalId":91999,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81863597","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 purpose of the study was to evaluate the opinions of the students of the School of Medicine of Bursa Uludag University, Turkey on the cadavers, prior to the anatomy education, and to determine the changes in attitudes towards the dead human body after basic and compulsory anatomy courses. Methods: The first-year class students of the School of Medicine of Bursa Uludag University were included in the study. The questionnaire was applied before and after the education on cadavers in Topographic Anatomy Committee. The on-line survey form was created and the link address was shared with e-mail and social media. Statistical analyses of the obtained data were performed using the SPSS 22.0 program. Results: The first questionnaire was answered by 297 students and the second questionnaire by 212 students. In the survey applied before the anatomy education in Topographic Anatomy Committee, the percentage of positive opinions (agree and strongly agree) on “Human is a valuable asset. For this reason, the human body must be valued and respected during life and after death” was found to be 83.8% and this percentage increased to 95.3% in the later survey. Conclusion: Anatomy education can not be effective without cadavers. We believe that the current study will be useful for educators in order to contribute to the medical students’ awareness of humanity and privacy.","PeriodicalId":91999,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87676656","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}

Methods: The radiographic parameters measured for CP and control groups were caput-collum-diaphyseal angle (CCD), migration index (MI), center edge angle (CEA), acetabular index (AI) and pelvic obliquity. The functional capacity of the CP group was assessed by GMFM-66. Results: No significant differences were found in terms of sides of the same individual in each group. Significant differences were found between groups for left CCD, right MI, right and left AI, and right and left CEA. Correlation analyses revealed significant relationships between radiological parameters. Hemiparetics had statistically higher GMFM-66 dimension E score than diparetics. Conclusion: The threshold values for hip parameters were determined with CP in GMFCS level 1. The hemiparetic and diparetic children with CP, who were at the GMFCS level I and age group, had similar hip morphology. Development of femoral head and acetabulum in these children were not different from control group. Evaluating the functional levels of patients according to GMFM-66 scores with radiographic parameters is believed to contribute to the monitoring CP children.","PeriodicalId":91999,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77078914","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 prevalence of variation, which may affect the success of this block, has not been documented in detail with respect to side and sex, nor has a classification system been proposed. Methods: Seventy-nine embalmed bodies were dissected bilaterally. The position of the roots and the subclavian artery relative to the anterior scalene muscle was documented and variations were classified according to prevalence. Differences in the prevalence of variation between left and right sides and between males and females were investigated. Results: The standard position of the nerves and subclavian artery in the interscalene groove (Type 1) was present in 31.6%. Variant positions included the following passing through the belly of the anterior scalene: C5 and C6 roots (Type 2) (46.8%), C5 root (Type 3) (15.2%), C5 and C6 roots as well as the subclavian artery (Type 4) (3.8%), and lastly, C5, C6 and C7 roots (Type 5) (2.5%). Variant anatomy was statistically more prevalent in females on the right side only. Conclusion: Variant locations of the roots and subclavian artery external to the interscalene groove were common, suggesting that ultrasound should be used to visualize variations prior to performing interscalene blocks. A classification type of variant positions has been developed for standardization.","PeriodicalId":91999,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85810634","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}

One of the most commonly used radiographic methods in BA assessment is to compare hand-wrist radiographs with a standard reference. In this study, Greulich-Pyle (GP) method was used to determine the bone maturation values of a population of children and adolescents living in the city of Erzurum, Turkey. Methods: Hand and wrist radiographs of 507 individuals (243 boys and 264 girls) aged between 7–19 years were evaluated and the BA was estimated by a radiologist using the GP method. Difference between estimated BA and chronological age (CA) was analyzed. Results: In boys, except for the ages of 12,13 and 17 years, BA was significantly lower than the chronological age. In girls, BA was significantly lower than CA at 7, 8, 18 and 19 years of age, but not statistically different in the other ages. Conclusion: According to the GP atlas, it is suggested that many factors including high altitude, cold climate, environment, nutrition, genetics, ethnics and socio-economic diversities might cause differences between BA and CA. Our results obtained in this study suggest that this method can guide the determination of bone age in children living in Erzurum, Turkey. However, in certain age groups for both genders, the GP method significantly underestimated skeletal age.","PeriodicalId":91999,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81942728","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}

Adverse effects of acute or chronic stress exposure on the gastrointestinal system have been shown previously in several studies. In this experimental study, we used chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) paradigm to better mimic effects of the intermittent exposure to daily life stress and investigated the morphometric alterations occurring in the small intestines of rats. Methods: Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into stress and control groups (n=8, each). While stress group was subjected to chronic unpredictable stress protocol for 21 days, control group remained undisturbed. Intestinal tissue samples were obtained from two different regions; one was 3-6 cm away from the pylorus and the other one 3-6 cm prior to the ileocaecal valve. Tissue sections were obtained from paraffin blocks at the thickness of 3 micrometers and stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) or periodic acid-Shiff (PAS). The lengths of villi were measured from the basal membrane to the top of the villus. The ratio of degranulating and non-degranulating mast cells per unit area were estimated by point counting method. Results: The mean villi length in the stress group were significantly higher (p<0.01) than those of the control group. Degranulation to non-degranulation ratio of the mast cells were 40% and 54% in the control and stress groups, respectively. Conclusion: Animals exposed to chronic unpredictable stress protocol displayed a significant elongation in the villi of small intestines and an increase in the number of degranulating mast cells in the intestinal mucosa. Since activation of mast cells causes releasing of various chemical mediators and growth factors, it is plausible that stressed animals developed an adaptation mechanism to enhance the capacity for absorption and digestion per unit length of the guts.","PeriodicalId":91999,"journal":{"name":"Anatomy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85062729","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}
