Review of the tetrapod skull-neck boundary: implications for the evolution of the atlas-axis complex. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This review describes variation in modern and fossil occiput–atlas–axis complex anatomy of total group Tetrapoda with the aim of documenting the range of structural variation throughout their evolutionary history to establish grounds for comparison of the complex between tetrapod clades.

Surface-Engineered Cenospheres Encapsulating Phase Change Materials for Functional Cementitious Composites. [PDF]
The global energy demand drives the need for advanced energy‐efficient building solutions. While current polymeric‐shell microencapsulated PCMs show promise for thermal energy storage, their use in cementitious materials is challenged by poor shell strength and interfacial bonding. This study develops novel cement‐compatible microencapsulated PCM using

Experience of using vascularized bone grafts to treat nonunion fractures and limb bone defects
Background. Vascular bone graft transposition is the one of most effective method of nonunion fracture and bone defect treatment. However, the use of this technique is associated with some difficulties. One is the adjustment of recipient bed size and the
