The extensor digitorum brevis manus variability and clinical significance: a systematic review with meta-analysis.

Purpose: The current meta-analysis aimed to investigate the extensor digitorum brevis manus (EDBM) muscle variability by calculating the pooled prevalence of all published variants. After considering the pooled prevalence, these variants were classified based on their insertion and relationship with the extensor indicis (EI) muscle and/or tendon. The origin of the variants, neural and arterial supply, and the terminology of the EDBM variants were further investigated.

MRI Investigation of Kidneys, Ureters and Urinary Bladder in Rabbits.

Twelve clinically healthy and sexually mature New Zealand White rabbits were studied. The non-contrast imaging included T1-weighted and T2-weighted spin-echo and gradient-echo sequences in the transverse, sagittal and dorsal planes.
