Inner workings of the alligator ankle reveal the mechanistic origins of archosaur locomotor diversity. [PDF]
We demonstrate the mechanical basis of ankle mobility in archosaurs and propose how significant shifts in ankle structure relate to locomotor diversity. The sources of three‐dimensional ankle mobility were determined in the American alligator, a species that retains the ancestral archosaur ankle structure.

A proposed standard for quantifying 3-D hindlimb joint poses in living and extinct archosaurs. [PDF]
We propose a standard approach for measuring the relative position and orientation of the major segments of the archosaur pelvis and hindlimb in 3‐D. A set of shared conventions for describing pose and kinematics is essential for fostering comparison among species and for maximizing communication.

Can medical herbs stimulate regeneration or neuroprotection and treat neuropathic pain in chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy? [PDF]
Chemotherapy‐induced neuropathy (CIPN) has a relevant impact on the quality of life of cancer patients. There are no curative conventional treatments, so further options have to be investigated. We conducted a systematic review in English and Chinese language databases to illuminate the role of medical herbs.

Ecomorphological analysis of the astragalo-calcaneal complex in rodents and inferences of locomotor behaviours in extinct rodent species [PDF]
Studies linking postcranial morphology with locomotion in mammals are common. However, such studies are mostly restricted to caviomorphs in rodents. We present here data from various families, belonging to the three main groups of rodents (Sciuroidea ...

Proposals (33–34) to conserve the name Poo-Astragalion and to conserve the name Poo-Astragaletum sesamei with a conserved type, and requests (5–7) for a binding decision on the name-giving taxa in the same names and the inversion of the name Poo-Astragaletum sesamei [PDF]
The alliance name Poo-Astragalion has been widely used by Iberian phytosociologists for nearly fifty years to indicate a type of sheep pastures thriving on base-rich substrates.

Condroblastoma de astrágalo. Reporte de un caso y revisión de la bibliografía
El condroblastoma es un tumor óseo benigno infrecuente que representa el 1-2% de todos los tumores óseos primarios. Como aproximadamente solo el 4% se localiza en el astrágalo, la bibliografía es escasa.

Central and eastern Euxine Turkey and SW Georgia, part of the Caucasus biodiversity hotspot, display a high vegetation diversity with 29 different forest and shrubland vegetation types. This vegetation diversity not only indicates the importance of the region in terms of nature conservation but also the reference value in restoration studies and ...
