  Publication date: Available online 16 October 2019Source: Acta HistochemicaAuthor(s): Daijiro Haba, Takamitsu ArakawaAbstractIn our previous study, we proposed an animal model in which pressure ulcer-like dermal lesions can be produced by denervation of the sciatic nerve and application of a pressure load to rat heel skin. In the present study, we divided these animals into non-treated and pressure loading groups, and initiated hindlimb unloading

Otteson, Pedro Horna, Horatiu Olteanu, Animesh Pardanani, Dong Chen, Dragan JevremovicAbstractHypereosinophilia (HE) is defined as persistently elevated absolute eosinophil count (AEC) ≥ 1.5 × 109/L, which can be due to a variety of underlying causes. In this study, we investigated the prevalence and spectrum of T-

• The fibro‐adipose structure of the female breast: A dissection study

  INTRODUCTION A paucity of dissection evidence and quantitative data exists to base anatomical descriptions and illustrations of the fibro‐adipose structure of the female breast. The aim of this study was to dissect and provide quantitative data of the fibro‐adipose structure of the female breast. MATERIALS AND METHODS The fibro‐adipose structure of female embalmed breasts were dissected in the coronal (n=15) and sagittal planes (n=3). Quan

• The Sphenoidal Emissary Foramen and The Emissary Vein: Anatomy and Clinical Relevance

  Introduction Although the sphenoidal emissary foramen (SEF) and its content are anatomically and clinically relevant, accurate description of them in the modern literature is lacking. Objective To examine and describe the SEF and its content (the sphenoidal emissary vein – SEV). Materials and Methods We analyzed 1000 computed tomography (CT) images, 170 dry skulls, 50 formalin‐fixed specimens, and three specimens (heads) following gu

• Study of abdominal wall muscle innervation applied to large‐defect closure in congenital diaphragmatic hernia

  INTRODUCTION In large congenital diaphragmatic hernias (CDHs), direct suture of the diaphragm is impossible. Surgeons can use a triangular internal oblique muscle (IOM) plus transverse abdominis muscle (TAM) flap. Its caudal limit faces the medial extremity of the 11th rib. Clinical studies show that the flap is not hypotonic but that the procedure could expose patients already presenting a hypoplastic lung to external oblique muscle (EOM) hypot

  Introduction The esophagogastric junction is part of the barrier preventing gastroesophageal reflux. We have investigated the contribution of the phrenic nerves to innervation of the esophagogastric junction in humans and piglets by dissecting 30 embalmed human specimens and 14 piglets. Materials and Methods Samples were microdissected and nerves were stained and examined by light and electron microscopy. Results In 76.6% of the huma

• Risk of malignancy and clinical outcomes of cyst fluid only nodules in the thyroid based on ultrasound and aspiration cytology

  Abstract Background The number of extensive studies focusing on cyst fluid only (CFO) thyroid nodules is limited, and the risk of malignancy (ROM) in CFO nodules has not been well‐established. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate CFO nodules using cytology and ultrasound. In addition, we sought to define the ROM and determine the recommended clinical management of CFO nodules. Methods We retrospectively reviewed cytologica

• Immunohistochemical Characterization of Reactive Epithelial Changes in Odontogenic Keratocysts

  Abstract Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) have a diagnostic thin epithelial lining characterised by a linear epithelial connective tissue interface generally lacking inflammatory changes, basal palisading of the nuclei and a wavy parakeratotic layer on the surface. This typical epithelium may convert to a thicker non-keratinizing one with rete pegs and a relatively flat surface after operative decompression. The aim was to charac

• Frequent appearance of club cell (Clara cell)‐like cells as a histological marker for ALK‐positive lung adenocarcinoma

  Anaplastic lymphoma kinase‐rearranged (ALK +) lung cancers show characteristic histological features, such as solid signet ring cell patterns and mucinous cribriform patterns; however, these features are not always observed in ALK + lung cancers. We noticed that club cell (Clara cell)‐like cells (CLCs) were frequently present in the papillary portion of ALK + lung adenocarcinomas. In this study, we investigated the importance of CLCs in papill

• Clarin‐1 expression in adult mouse and human retina highlights a role of Müller glia in Usher syndrome

  Abstract Usher syndrome type 3 (USH3) is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder caused by mutations in the gene Clarin‐1 (CLRN1), leading to combined progressive hearing loss and retinal degeneration. The cellular distribution of CLRN1 in the retina remains uncertain, either because its expression levels are low, or its epitopes are masked. Indeed, in the adult mouse retina, Clrn1 mRNA is developmentally downregulated, detectable only by RT
