The most common tumor of the eyelids is basal cell carcinoma. At this site, excision can be performed using Mohs micrographic surgery. Reconstruction of the upper or lower eyelids is a challenge due to their structural complexity and their important function. The eyelid has classically been divided into the anterior lamella, comprising skin, subcutaneous cellular tissue, and the orbicularis ocu...

Cricket nymphs have the remarkable ability to regenerate a functional leg following amputation, indicating that the regenerating blastemal cells contain information for leg morphology. However, the molecular mechanisms that underlie regeneration of leg patterns remain poorly understood. Here, we analyzed phenotypes of the tibia and tarsus (three tarsomeres) obtained by knockdown with regenerati...

We describe cell lineage of the tarsus of wild-type Drosophila. Large Minute+ clones were made to map the position of the antero-posterior compartment boundary in all three tarsi. The tarsus is mirror symmetric, but the compartment boundary does not coincide with the mirror plane. This boundary runs along the dorsal and the ventral rows of bristles which are immediately posterior to the mirror ...

in this study, the systematic position of acanthalburnus microlepis from kura and aras basins is clarified and some notes on the taxonomy of the acanthobrama species distributed in turkey are given. based on the morphological and osteological analyses, a high similarity between a. microlepis and acanthobrama members is found. some taxonomic information yielded from the examination of recent col...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate whether amitraz and fluvalinate residues were present in the honey samples Çukurova district they would pose a risk for human health. Total 135 used with 15 extracted flower from each of Adana center, Kadirli, Kozan, Osmaniye, Ceyhan, Karataş, Yumurtalık, Tarsus Mersin centre. The represented 1550 beehives centre, 980 1050 650 750 860 740 800 950 Tarsu...

—Butt-end and lock-on aluminum band loss and wear were studied in the White Stork (Ciconia ciconia) banded in Spain. The risk of loss of butt-end bands increased from 0% to 85% in bands of 0 to 12 years. However, no loss occurred when storks were banded on the tibia rather than in the tarsus. Lock-on metal bands showed a low band loss rate throughout. The results indicated that band loss was ma...

Congenital ocular malformation may lead to failure of the development of ocular regions and visual function in the pediatric population. Orbital bones are established within the first 2 months of embryogenesis. Any abnormalities may lead to failure in development of the ocular region. In this case report, we present a newborn with congenital canthus malposition, a distorted tarsus, and mild eno...

We report the morphogenesis of a new mouse mutant, Doublefoot (Dbf). The major phenotypic features involve the limb and craniofacial regions. There is polydactyly of all 4 limbs, with typically 6-8 digits per limb. All of the digits are triphalangeal; some show bifurcations and some are not attached to the carpus/tarsus. The carpus and tarsus are broader than normal, and their elements are part...

Older red-breasted flycatcher males (after the second year) have an orange patch on the throat and breast. To date, the occurrence of this ornament has been explained in terms of male-male interactions. In this paper, we show that badge size also influences the mating success of red-breasted-flycatcher males. In addition to the size of the ornament, arrival time was a second factor related to t...
