Microdissection of the "globular" and "granular" landmark loops of Pleurodeles lampbrush chromosomes and subsequent cloning of their DNA yielded several recombinant clones. The 6.6-kb insert of one of them was subcloned and the 600 bp of one subclone was characterized by Southern and slot hybridizations as well as by sequencing. This sequence, designated p130B, was shown to belong to a class of moderately repetitive DNA. RNA expression of this sequence was investigated by in situ hybridization of p130B to the nascent transcripts of lateral loops. Results showed that: (1) the same transcripts were not always found in matrices of landmarks exhibiting the same morphological features; (2) the same transcripts were expressed in loops of different morphological types. Based on these results we suggest that even if there is a morphological similarity of landmark loops, this does not reflect total similarity of their transcripts.

Radiological anatomical measurements of the superficial temporal artery: an interobserver reproducibility study.

Anatomy Department, University of Western Brittany (UBO), Brest, France.
Purpose: Numerous studies have already reported on the anatomy of the superficial temporal artery (STA) on dissection or imaging, and more specifically on CT angiography. However, few studies have reported on the possible variations that exist between readers in the assessment of certain anatomical parameters. The aim of this study was to investigate the reproducibility of different anatomical measurements of the superficial temporal artery with CT angiography.

Background: In the twentieth century, the textbook idea of packaging genomic material in the cell nucleus and metaphase chromosomes was the presence of a hierarchy of structural levels of chromatin organization: nucleosomes - nucleosomal fibrils -30 nm fibrils - chromomeres - chromonemata - mitotic chromosomes. Chromomeres were observed in partially decondensed chromosomes and interphase chromatin as ~100 nm globular structures. They were thought to consist of loops of chromatin fibres attached at their bases to a central protein core.

Article Synopsis
- - Hemorrhage is the main cause of preventable death in trauma situations, leading to military and civilian advancements in medical practices, particularly through the use of tourniquets to manage extremity bleeding and save lives.
- - While tourniquets have significantly decreased deaths from bleeding in military settings, noncompressible hemorrhage still poses a major risk, especially before patients receive definitive medical care.
- - The study explores using a small, disposable pressure monitor during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) to enhance blood pressure monitoring, facilitate better resuscitation practices, and reduce the need for blood products in extreme environments.

Peritoneal sclerosis (PS) and its most severe form, encapsulating PS (EPS), are rare entities that can occur in various procedures (liver transplantation, intraperitoneal chemotherapy) or secondary to medications (beta-blockers); however, PS or EPS typically occur in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis as a form of renal function substitution. Medical or surgical treatments can be applied, but morbidity and mortality have high rates. This condition typically presents clinically as an intestinal obstruction caused by the inclusion of the intestinal loops in the peritoneal fibrous membrane.

Introduction: The precise location of the mental foramina is an essential landmark in planning the position of dental implants in the anterior mandible. Injury to inferior alveolar nerve during anterior mandibular implant surgery causes altered sensation which greatly affects patient satisfaction.
Methods: In this study, we assessed the prevalence of anterior loop of mental nerve and the pattern of entry of mental nerve into the mental foramen.
