Osteohistology of hyperodapedontine rhynchosaurs from the Upper Triassic of Southern Brazil [PDF]
The first osteohistological study focused exclusively on rhynchosaurs (non-archosauriform archosauromorphs), based on the hyperodapedontines Teyumbaita sulcognathus and Hyperodapedon sp., from the Upper Triassic of Southern Brazil, indicates a relatively

New Comparative Data on the Long Bone Microstructure of Large Extant and Extinct Flightless Birds
Here, we investigate whether bone microanatomy can be used to infer the locomotion mode (cursorial vs. graviportal) of large terrestrial birds. We also reexamine, or describe for the first time, the bone histology of several large extant and extinct ...

Background: After tooth extraction, the alveolar bone loses volume in height and width over time, meaning that reconstructive procedures may be necessary to perform implant placement.

Comparison of the long bone microstructure of two southern African marine birds, the Cape gannet (Morus capensis) and the African penguin (Spheniscus demersus) with respect to their aquatic adaptations [PDF]
The Cape gannet (Morus capensis) and the African penguin (Spheniscus demersus) have distinct aquatic adaptations for locomotion. The gannet, which is an efficient flying bird, uses both fore- and hind limbs to propel itself under water. On the other hand,

First record of palaeopathologies in appendicular bones of the Triassic pseudosuchians Erpetosuchidae and Aetosauria based on microstructural approaches [PDF]
Pseudosuchians were the dominant group of archosaurs on continental ecosystems during the Triassic. However, studies that report palaeopathologies based on osteohistological evidence in this group are scarce. Here, two cases of palaeopathologies found in

Ontogenetic stages of ceratopsian dinosaur Psittacosaurus in bone histology [PDF]
The early ceratopsians Psittacosaurus and Protoceratops have provided important information on dinosaurian development because of abundant specimens of adults, subadults, juveniles, and even hatchlings.

Abnormalities in Bone Mineral Density and Bone Histology in Thalassemia [PDF]
Abstract This study demonstrated that there was extensive iron staining on trabecular surface and marked reduction in trabecular bone volume without significant alteration in bone formation and bone resorption rates as well as significant reduction in bone mineral density in 18 thalassemic patients.

The strictly regulated bone remodeling process ensures that osteoblastic bone formation is coupled to osteoclastic bone resorption. This coupling is regulated by a panel of coupling factors, including clastokines promoting the recruitment, expansion, and
