Feminizing the Face: Combination of Frontal Bone Reduction and Reduction Rhinoplasty by C. J. Salgado, H. AlQattan, A. Nugent, D. Gerth, W. Kassira, C. S. McGee, L. Wo

“…Since both reduction rhinoplasty and frontal brow reduction are routinely performed in FFS, a combined approach provides superior control over the nasal radix and profile when performing surgery on the frontal bone region first followed by nose reduction. We present a case series of four transwomen undergoing frontal bone reduction in combination with a reduction rhinoplasty. …”

Regeneration in the absence of canonical neoblasts in an early branching flatworm by Ludwik Gąsiorowski, Chew Chai, Andrei Rozanski, Gargi Purandare, Fruzsina Ficze, Athanasia Mizi, Bo Wang, Jochen C. Rink

“…Although the presence of neoblast-like cells and whole-body regeneration in other animals has led to the idea that these features may represent the ancestral metazoan state, the evolutionary origin of both remains unclear. Here we show that the catenulid Stenostomum brevipharyngium, a member of the earliest-branching flatworm lineage, lacks conventional neoblasts despite being capable of whole-body regeneration and asexual reproduction. …”
