We describe the development of bones associated with lateral‐line canals in the Senegal Bichir and use these data to re‐address previous hypotheses of homology of skull bones of polypterids. We demonstrate that the lateral‐line canals comprise a separate component of the dermatocranium that may interact with a membranodermal component, forming compound bones in the adult. Our results shed light on controversies about the identity of skull bones in Polypteridae and suggest the presence of an ancestral...
Reconstructed embryonic bronchial tree formation during CS18 and CS23 was shown. Distribution of the end‐branch generation among five lobes significantly differed. We showed the morphological change of the bronchial tree and the end‐branch generation in each lobe during the human embryonic period. Abstract A classical study has revealed the general growth of the bronchial tree and its variations up to Carnegie stage (CS) 19. In the present study, we extended the morphological analysis CS by CS...
This study provides the first series of normative data for absolute and normalised surface area, as well as diameters for the anterior fontanelle in modern Australian multi‐ancestral infants aged 2 years and under. We provide predictive functions to assess paediatric aberrations in suspected child maltreatment, living age substantiation and assessment of craniofacial growth and development. These new standards reduce temporality and demographic biases inherent in current methods, and the quantification...

Abstract The present study aims to compare the morphology of the oropharyngeal roof of young and adult domestic pigeon (Columba livia domestica) by gross observation, morphometric measurements, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The oropharyngeal roof was divided into the palate and pharyngeal roof. The palate was narrow triangular in shape and concave along its length. It could be divided into a rostral part contained three longitudinal palatine ridges and a caudal part contained the...
Schematic presentation of a trial investigating the possibility of using three natural inflammatory substances: capsaicin, piperine, and okadaic acid to enhance the paracellular permeability of intestinal epithelium of fish for viral and bacterial inactivated vaccines. In which, sevenband grouper (Epinephelus septemfasciatus) and inactivated redspotted grouper nervous necrosis virus vaccine as viral vaccine experimental model, and red sea bream (Pagrus major), and inactivated Edwardsiella tarda vaccine...

Abstract The pathogeneses of skin diseases are not fully understood. Psychological stress has been proposed to be associated with skin diseases, but the epidemiological evidence is limited [1, 2]. We have recently reported the associations between partner bereavement (an extreme life stressor) and psoriasis, atopic eczema and melanoma [3, 4]. In this study, we further investigated whether partner bereavement was associated with urticaria, alopecia areata, or vitiligo.
Summary Background The presence of ulceration has been recognized as an adverse prognostic factor in primary cutaneous melanoma (PCM). Objective To investigate whether the extent of ulceration (EU) predicts relapse free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in PCM. Methods 477 patients with ulcerated PCM were retrieved from databases of Italian Melanoma Intergroup. Univariate and multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the independent prognostic...
Abstract In familial hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), mutations in the genes encoding three subunits of the ‐secretase complex, PSEN1, PSENEN and NCSTN, have pointed to an impaired NOTCH signalling as a pathogenic disease mechanism.1 Dowling Degos Disease (DDD; MIM 179850, 615327, and 615696)―a rare reticulated pigmentary disorder― has also been associated with a deficient NOTCH signalling and patients with mutations in PSENEN suffering from both disorders seem to confirm a potential link between...
Summary Background In contact dermatitis, it is crucial to understand and remember the outcome of patch testing. Unfortunately, many of the patients do not remember the results of their patch tests 1,2. Objectives Our aim was to evaluate the effects of an intervention programme in which extensive information on specific contact allergy was provided, in individuals with positive patch test reactions. Methods The study was designed as a randomized, investigator‐blinded clinical...
Abstract Naegeli‐Franceschetti‐Jadassohn syndrome (NFJS; Mendelian Inheritance in Man (MIM) 161000) is a rare, autosomal‐dominant ectodermal dysplasia.1 Affected individuals present with a heterogenous spectrum of ectodermal abnormalities. The most distinctive features are absent dermatoglyphics, reticulate hyperpigmentation of the skin, palmoplantar keratoderma, and decreased sweating. Other features may include abnormalities of the teeth, hair, nails, and skin.
Summary Background Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) to cosmetics is widely reported. To ensure we are accurately diagnosing ACD, patch test series should be continually reviewed to identify relevant and emerging allergens and highlight those which are outdated. The current British Society for Cutaneous Allergy (BSCA) facial series recommends 26 allergens and was last modified in 2012. Objectives To review and update the BSCA facial series. Methods We retrospectively reviewed...
Abstract Systemic inhibitors of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) have antiproliferative, antiangiogenic, and immunosuppressive properties. In dermatology, they are effective for managing certain vascular anomalies and genodermatoses, notably tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).1 Compared to cancer patients or transplant recipients, TSC patients are prescribed mTOR inhibitors at lower doses and their treatment regimens are less likely to include other drugs that may induce similar side effects.
Summary Background Many cancer types display sex and age disparity in incidence and outcome. The mutational load of tumours, including melanoma, varies according to sex and age. However, there are no tools to systematically explore if clinical variables such as age and sex determine the genomic landscape of cancer. Objectives To establish a mathematical approach using melanoma mutational data to analyze how sex and age shape the tumour genome. Methods We model how age‐related...

Abstract The regulation of insulin on depression and depression‐like behaviour has been widely reported. Insulin and activation of its receptor can promote learning and memory, affect the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal axis (HPA) balance, regulate the secretion of neurotrophic factors and neurotransmitters, interact with gastrointestinal microbiome, exert neuroprotective effects and have an impact on depression. However, the role of insulin on depression remains largely unclear. Therefore, in this...

Summary Objective Depressive mood consequent to hypothyroidism can be reversed with levothyroxine (LT4) replacement therapy. However, it is unclear whether increasing LT4 dose confers additional mood benefits. Design and Patients A Single‐blinded before‐and‐after study of 24 patients with hypothyroidism who were aged 65 years or older and undergoing LT4 replacement therapy with stable doses. Measurements Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS‐K) and Hyperthyroid Symptom Scale...
