Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping of the Cervical Spinal Cord at 3T and Application to Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 6, June 2026.
We adapted to the spinal cord (SC) an MRI technique called quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) to produce the first high‐resolution axial QSM maps of the cervical SC. Applied to multiple sclerosis, it reveals differences between gray matter, white matter, and lesions, suggesting its potential for improved lesion characterization.

Hindlimb functional morphology and locomotor biomechanics of the small Late Triassic pseudosuchian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum (Archosauria: Gracilisuchidae)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 1026-1063, June 2026.
A three‐dimensional biomechanical model of the musculoskeletal system is used to analyse the potential locomotor functions of the small (~1 kg) Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum. The study finds that, potentially like the ancestral archosaur, this taxon was probably quadrupedal, plantigrade and neither strongly sprawling ...

Efficacy and Safety of the Use of Interspinous Spacers in the Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: Mapping Gap and Scoping Review

open access: yesPain Practice, Volume 26, Issue 5, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Low back pain is a common pathology in the general population. In people over 60 years of age, it is associated with degenerative changes that cause narrowing of the vertebral canal. Its treatment includes conservative measures and even surgery with decompression and fusion.

SpineMAE: A bone‐window self‐supervised and structure‐aware framework for 3D cervical vertebra segmentation and fracture classification

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Accurate segmentation and classification of cervical spine fractures are essential for timely diagnosis and clinical decision‐making in trauma care. Existing deep learning approaches often require extensive manual annotations and struggle to maintain anatomical consistency across vertebral levels, limiting their reliability and ...

Synchronous Haemorrhagic Tumors of the Anterior Maxilla and Oropharynx

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Photomicrograph of a low‐power view of partially ulcerated squamous mucosa with underlying vascular proliferation showing anastomosing vascular channels. Hematoxylin and eosin stain. Magnification ×20. ABSTRACT Oral epithelioid angiosarcoma arising in the oral cavity is exceptionally rare.
