Insects optimize friction in their joints by combining microstructures with a—so far unknown—lubricant. To develop environmentally friendly lubricants, we research the sophisticated tribological system found in the joints of beetles.

Hill‐Sachs lesions are defects in the posterior humeral head from anterior glenoid impaction during dislocation. Left untreated, they can contribute to failure after arthroscopic Bankart repair. Arthroscopic remplissage, involving capsulotenodesis of the posterior capsule and infraspinatus tendon, is the most frequently performed approach to address ...

Fresh Talus Allograft Preparation for the Treatment of a Large Off‐Track Hill‐Sachs Lesion
Abstract Large off‐track Hill‐Sachs lesions present a significant challenge in the management of recurrent anterior shoulder instability, particularly in young, active patients. Traditional Hill‐Sachs management procedures include remplissage, coracoid transfer and free bone block reconstruction, which all carry associated limitations, including non ...

Abstract Recurrent posterior shoulder instability associated with posterior glenoid bone loss remains challenging. Arthroscopic bone block procedures have gained popularity due to their minimally invasive nature and their ability to restore glenoid concavity while addressing associated intra‐articular pathology.

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

Oak as retention tree in commercial spruce forests [PDF]
Retaining trees valuable for biodiversity is a common conservation measure. There are indications that such trees have important benefits for the diversity of many species groups.

Orchard netting impacts on biodiversity leading to cascading effects at the ecosystem level
ABSTRACT Agriculture must ensure food production without further compromising the ecosystem functions upon which it depends. Agricultural practices should therefore avoid harming farmland biodiversity, especially of taxa that supply the key ecosystem services (e.g.
