"The view" and the canine connection: an atlas of mandibular anterior tooth esthetics.

Restoring splinted mandibular incisors and canines with full crown restorations has always presented a challenge in creating an esthetic illusion of reality of normal individual teeth. This treatise is designed to present the rules for mandibular anterior esthetics that have been distilled from almost 4 decades of clinical practice of restoring dentitions that have been severely compromised by the deformities of disease or accident. The resultant formula systematically creates the desired results with a high degree of predictability.

Anatomic and computed tomographic atlas of the head of the newborn bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus).

The head of a newborn dolphin (Tursiops truncatus), that died shortly after birth was imaged using computed tomography (CT). Gross cross-sectional slices of the head were compared with the CT images to identify normal structures of the cranium, brain, and respiratory and digestive pathways. Labelled transverse CT images of the dolphin head are presented sequentially as a reference for normal anatomy.

Genetic effect of the Ph1 locus on transcriptome atlas of anther development-related genes, meiotic chromosome behavior and agronomic traits in bread wheat.

Proper spatiotemporal expression of meiosis-related genes (MRGs) and other male-microsporogenesis/microgametogenesis-related genes (MMRGs) is crucial for normal anther development, yet their expression patterns remain largely unknown in wheat. The Ph1 locus in wheat is known to contain the Ph1 gene that plays a dual role in promoting pairing between homologous chromosomes but repressing pairing between homoeologous chromosomes, but its genetic function is still unclear. Here, we investigated these issues by conducting a comprehensive transcriptome analysis during wheat anther development in Chinese Spring (CS) and its ph1b deletion mutant under greenhouse and field conditions. Our results revealed that MRGs and MMRGs are predominantly expressed during pre-meiosis stages, with MMRGs also being highly expressed in meiotic-II. Gene co-expression analysis showed that C2H2 and B3 transcriptional factors (TFs) are associated with MRGs, and MYB regulators interacted mainly with MMRGs during microgametogenesis. Deletion of genes within the Ph1 locus failed to induce compensatory transcriptional activation of their homoeologous counterparts, while genes outside the Ph1 locus showed environmental-specific responses, especially during meiotic-II and mature pollen stages. Notably, early disjunction of bivalent chromosomes is a primary factor leading to defective meiocytes during metaphase I. Furthermore, the ph1b deletion mutant exhibited a substantially delayed heading date, potentially contributing to environment-stable and environment-specific alterations in fertility and grain-related traits. Our study highlights the significant impact of the Ph1 locus on the transcriptome during anther development, and a previously unheeded effect on meiotic chromosome pairing and agronomic traits, suggesting potential for genetic manipulations within the Ph1 locus for wheat improvement.

Minor vascular anatomy of the abdomen and pelvis: a CT atlas.

With the early generations of computed tomographic (CT) scanners, interpretation of abdominal and pelvic scans focused on the solid organs, hollow viscera, and retroperitoneum. Attention to blood vessels generally was given only to the aorta and inferior vena cava and their larger branches. The newer generations of scanners allow rapid acquisition of high-resolution images during the vascular phase of mechanical bolus injection of intravenous contrast material. Visualization of second-order vascular branches has thus become routine. Recent improvements in software allow real-time reconstruction of data in multiple planes, which enables demonstration of long segments of vessels within a single image. Approximately 7,000 abdominal and pelvic CT scans were reviewed with attention to vascular detail. Cases are presented that illustrate peripancreatic, perigastric, parietal, and hypogastric vessels; fetal remnants and structures that may be mistaken for vessels; and collateral pathways of both arterial and venous flow. With increasing use of helical CT scanning, smaller vessels can be identified with greater confidence. Knowledge of normal CT vascular anatomy facilitates understanding of collateral pathways when vessel engorgement is perceived.

Lymphoscintigraphy in cutaneous melanoma: a total body atlas of sentinel node mapping.

Lymphoscintigraphy of malignant melanoma has been a reliable method of identifying regional lymph nodes at risk for metastases and is now considered part of the standard of care in patients with melanoma. The status of the sentinel lymph node (SLN) is predictive of the metastatic status of the corresponding regional lymph node group. Lymphatic channel mapping allows identification of the SLN, thereby making selective lymph node sampling possible. Consequently, SLN identification with lymphoscintigraphy results in both less extensive surgery and more efficient pathologic examination of the lymph node specimens. Therefore, it is imperative that radiologists and nuclear medicine physicians know which radiopharmaceuticals to use, recognize different lymphatic drainage patterns from various primary tumor sites throughout the body, use proper imaging techniques, and recognize potential pitfalls in image interpretation.

Clinical breast lymphoscintigraphy: optimal techniques for performing studies, image atlas, and analysis of images.

Breast lymphoscintigraphy is increasingly performed before surgery to delineate the drainage to the sentinel node (SN) in the axilla. On the basis of the histologic status of harvested SNs, the disease status of the entire axilla can be predicted. This prediction allows a more limited dissection to be performed while maintaining staging accuracy comparable with that of classic axillary lymph node dissection. Lymphoscintigraphy assists surgeons in harvesting the SN during gamma probe-assisted axillary biopsy or dissection and provides a wide field of view survey, among other benefits. When certain injection protocols are used, lymphoscintigraphy can be performed in the afternoon before surgery the next morning, thus minimizing disruptions of tight surgical schedules. Image acquisition can be optimized and SN activity can be maximized by means of such factors as parameters for preparation of the radiotracer, injection techniques, energy settings for the gamma camera, breast displacement maneuvers, and techniques for marking and outlining the patient's body. The ultimate goals are to delineate the true SN, maximize activity in the node for facilitated removal (even at next-day surgery), and deliver the information to the surgeon without delaying the surgical schedule.
