A congenital case of intermediate-type fetal rhabdomyoma in an Ardi goat kid

A 5-year-old pregnant Ardi goat presented with dystocia of 36h duration. Vaginal examination showed normal fetal presentation; however, a large neck mass prevented vaginal delivery and cesarean section was performed to deliver the stillborn kid. A well-cir ...

Timing by rhythms: Daily clocks and developmental rulers

Andrew Charles Oates

Biological rhythms are widespread, allowing organisms to temporally organize their behavior and metabolism in advantageous ways. Such proper timing of molecular and cellular events is critical to their development and health. This is best understood in the ...

Confocal microscopy via multimode fibers: fluorescence bandwidth

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie

We recently described a method for confocal reflection imaging through fibers, as a way to increase contrast when imaging unstained biological specimens. Using a transmission matrix, focused spots can be created at the distal end of a fiber. The backscatte ...

Direction-Dependent Adaptation of Dynamic Gait Stability Following Waist-Pull Perturbations

Silvestro Micera

Balance recovery during an unexpected disturbance is a complex motor task, where part of the variability depends on the type of the perturbation itself. Despite of this, little is known to what extent adaptation mechanisms to repeated perturbations are dep ...

Impact of the Femoral Head Position on Moment Arms in Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Parametric Finite Element Study

Alexandre Terrier, Valérie Parvex

Background: Although the importance of accurate femoral reconstruction to achieve a good functional outcome is well documented, quantitative data on the effects of a displacement of the femoral center of rotation on moment arms are scarce. The purpose of t ...

Large Volume Imaging of Rodent Brain Anatomy with Emphasis on Selective Plane Illumination Microscopy

Jean Pierre Ghobril

Inside the human brain there are 86 Billion neurons exchanging electrical impulses to allow reaction, homoeostasis and intelligence. Their coarse organization has been described, leaving us with a fair understanding of macrocircuitry. The microcircuitry of ...
