Lip Sonoanatomy and Relevance to Aesthetic Filler Injections: A Pictorial Review
1 Introduction Lips play a crucial role in facial attractiveness, significantly contributing to overall aesthetic balance [1]. Full, well-defined lips are often associated with youthfulness and sensuality, enhancing facial expressions, conveying emotions, and impacting social interactions [1]. Lips define the contours of the lower face, complementing other facial features such as the eyes and nose. Their symmetry, volume, and shape are key factors influencing perceptions of appeal.

Characterization of Seismic Signal Patterns and Dynamic Pore Pressure Fluctuations Due to Wave-Induced Erosion on Non-Cohesive Slopes
1. Introduction Coastal slopes are often subject to wave erosion, leading to landslides into marine environments. Wave erosion not only exposes the slope and causes soil loss but also severely threatens the ecology, human activities, and the safety of public facilities. A “marine geohazard” is defined as geological features and processes in coastal and offshore environments that lead to loss of life and assets [1,2,3,4,5,6].
Optimizing Ultrasonography of the Nasal Cartilage for Rhinoplasty: Techniques and Challenges
To the Editor, The nasal cartilage can be categorized into two main types based on its anatomy: lateral and septal cartilages. The former include the upper and lower lateral (alar) cartilages. The upper lateral cartilages are paired structures that extend from the nasal bones downward and outward, forming the sides of the upper part of the nose. The lower lateral cartilages, also paired, are located below the upper lateral cartilages.

Enhanced serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, and -6 in sarcopenia: alleviation through exercise and nutrition intervention
Background: Limited research has been conducted on the post-intervention inflammatory status in sarcopenic patients, despite previous studies revealing elevated pro-inflammatory markers. This study aimed to investigate the potential elevation of specific pro-inflammatory cytokines in sarcopenic patients and evaluate the effects of exercise and nutritional support interventions on these cytokine levels.

The Potential of Ultrasound Radiomics in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Diagnosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
1. Introduction Ultrasound radiomics stands as a cutting-edge medical imaging methodology, focusing on the meticulous extraction and analyses of an extensive array of quantitative features sourced from ultrasound images [1]. These features are systematically acquired from the images, aiming to encapsulate intricate nuances, patterns, and textures that may elude the capabilities of human visual perception.
Ultrasound Imaging and Guidance for Distal Peripheral Nerve Pathologies at the Wrist/Hand
3.3. Radial Nerve 3.3.1. Superficial Radial Nerve Anatomy The superficial radial nerve is a branch of the radial nerve, originating from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus. It descends underneath the brachioradialis muscle and courses lateral to the radial artery. Upon reaching the radial aspect of the distal forearm, it perforates the antebrachial fascia, and travels between the brachioradialis and extensor carpi radialis longus tendons.

Ultrasound Parameters Other Than the Direct Measurement of Ulnar Nerve Size for Diagnosing Cubital Tunnel Syndrome: A Systemic Review and Meta-analysis
Abstract Objective To investigate the diagnostic performance of available ultrasound (US) parameters, other than the direct measurements of ulnar nerve size, that is, cross-sectional area (CSA) and diameter, for diagnosing cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS). Data Sources Databases, including PubMed and Embase, were searched from the earliest record of CuTS US to April 24, 2018.
