Body evaluation in men: the role of body weight dissatisfaction in appearance evaluation, eating, and muscle dysmorphia psychopathology.

Background: Body image dissatisfaction is a significant concern among men, influencing appearance evaluation, eating behaviors, and muscle dysmorphia psychopathology. However, research on these correlations is notably deficient in men, largely because body image concerns are unevenly distributed between genders. Therefore, this study aims to assess the various dimensions of concerns about body image in men and explore their associations with characteristics such as sexual orientation.

Descriptive Study of Facial Motor Cocontractions During Voluntary Facial Movement in a Healthy Population: A New Hypothesis Contributing to Synkinesis.

Motor overflow refers to involuntary movements that accompany voluntary movements in healthy individuals. This may have a role in synkinesis. To describe the frequency and magnitude of facial motor overflow in a healthy population.

Targeted chemodenervation of the posterior belly of the digastric muscle for the management of jaw discomfort in facial synkinesis.

Background: Botulinum toxin (BT-A) chemodenervation has been proved to significantly improve the physical and psychological well-being of patients suffering from facial synkinesis. Despite this, a cohort of patients has persistent tightness and discomfort around the angle of the jaw, which may be caused by synkinesis within the posterior belly of digastric (PBD) muscle. This study was designed to evaluate the benefits of ultrasound-guided BT-A injections into the PBD.

The surgical management of extra-cranial trigeminal nerve palsies: A retrospective case series.

Objectives: To assess for functional improvement in outcomes following supermicrosurgical restoration across a cohort of patients with a spectrum of trigeminal nerve disorders.

Patients & Methods: In a retrospective case series over three years (2016-18), twenty patients were included in a cohort of trigeminal nerve palsy patients. Eleven patients with corneal anaesthesia underwent corneal neurotisation procedures and were followed up using Cochet-Bonnet aesthesiometry.

Late Metastatic Melanoma after 25 Years: A Case Report and a Brief Literature Review.

The incidence of cutaneous malignant melanoma has shown a drastic increase over recent decades, and approximately 70% of newly diagnosed melanoma are tumors with a Breslow thickness less or equal to 1 mm. In the literature, there are well-documented rare cases of late metastasis of thin melanoma, and given their growing incidence, it is expected in the future to see more cases of late recurrence. We present a case report of a metastatic cutaneous melanoma 25 years from diagnosis and a review of the literature.
