Exposure rates of wrapped and unwrapped orbital implants following enucleation.
TL;DR: The exposure rate of porous polyethylene implants in this study was found to be comparable to published rates for hydroxyapatite implants, and porous implants wrapped in durable material appear to be as safe as solid acrylic spheres.

Bulbospinal and intraspinal connections in normal and regenerated salamander spinal cord.
TL;DR: In the experiments reported here, HRP application to the lumbar enlargement of normal salamanders labeled cells in the ventral thalamus, the rostral tegmentum in the proposed homolog of the red nucleus, the reticular neurons of the rhombencephalon, and the midline regions of the Rhino nuclei which are possibly equivalent to raphe nuclei of other vertebrates.

Origin of spinal cord axons in the lizard regenerated tail: Supernormal projections from local spinal neurons
TL;DR: Application of HRP immediately rostral to the regenerated spinal cord resulted in the labeling of a normal, and in some cases, greater than normal, number of neurons.
