Two 4-year-old boys, one white and one black, had unilateral extensive myelinization of retinal nerve fibers associated with severe myopia, esotropia, and amblyopia. The finding of unilateral extensive myelinization of the nerve head and retinal fibers in a child may indicate a potentially remediable anisometropic amblyopia.

The present study aimed to analyze the morphology of the peripheral nerve, postsynaptic compartment, skeletal muscles and weight-bearing capacity of Wistar rats at specific ages. Twenty rats were divided into groups: 10 months-old (ADULT) and 24 months-old (OLD). After euthanasia, we prepared and analyzed the tibial nerve using transmission electron microscopy and the soleus and plantaris muscl...

=Abstract=Sprague-Dawley rat fetuses ranging from 15to 19-day of gestational age, were studied with their rugae morphogenesis a t the light microscopic level. The distribution of collagen fibers in the palatal mesenchyme was analyzed. In addition, an attempt to evaluate the role of collagen fibers in rugae development was made. The specimens were H-E stained and collagen fiber stained according...
