AI Article Synopsis
- The posterior part of the middle ear, particularly the attic, is significant for otologists due to its association with cholesteatoma and retraction pouches.
- The anatomy in this area, especially the anterior and internal walls, is not well understood.
- This study involved dissecting 41 petrus bones to clarify the anatomical boundaries and identify important structures to help improve surgical techniques in this region.
Article Abstract
Among the hidden parts of the middle ear, the posterior part of the atrium undoubtedly raises the most interest of otologists. The attic is a frequent localization of cholesteatoma and retraction pouches. Its anatomy is not well known, especially the anterior and internal walls. This anatomic study, based on the dissection of 41 petrus bones was designed to determine the anatomic limits and describe the "noble structures" of this region in order to "guide" future surgical procedures.

Development and Validation of the Internalized Care Stigma Scale (ICSS): Measuring care stigma aimed at informal care for older adults in Germany.
Gerontologist

Department of Health Economics and Health Services Research, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany.
Background And Objectives: In this study we developed and validated the Internalized Caregiver Stigma Scale (ICSS) to measure internalized stigma targeting informal care for older adults (≥60 years) in Germany.
Research Design And Methods: The ICSS scale was developed in the Attitudes Towards Informal Caregivers (ATTIC) project based on stigma theories and (cognitive) pretesting with informal caregivers. Informal long-term caregivers (aged ≥40 years; n=433) of older relatives (aged ≥60 years) were quota-sampled from the online panel GapFish in December 2023 (twice as many female and middle-aged (aged 40-64 years) caregivers than male and younger (18-39 years) or older adults (65+ years) were included in the sample).

Objective: To analyze the sociostructural determinants associated with mental health problems during the lockdown period among populations residing in Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, and Spain who lived with minors or dependents, approached from a gender perspective.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in six participating countries via an adapted, self-managed online survey. People living with minors and/or dependents were selected.
Forensically useful mid-term and short-term temperature reconstruction for quasi-indoor death scenes.

While estimating postmortem interval (PMI) ambient temperature plays a pivotal role, so its reconstruction is crucial for forensic scientists. The recommended procedure is to correct temperatures from the nearest meteorological station based on measurements from the death scene; typically applying linear regression. Recently, there have been attempts to use different algorithms, that can improve that correction, for example GAM algorithm.

Department of Otolaryngology, Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital, Institute of Translational Medicine, Medical College, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou, PR China.
This study aimed to compare the efficacy of continuous perfusion of underwater bone grinding combined with a -shaped incision versus a microscopic posterior ear incision in the treatment of attic cholesteatoma. Clinical trials were prospective studies from the Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital. Adult patients with middle ear cholesteatoma requiring ear surgery agreed to participate between September 2019 and September 2023 (age > 18).
