Newly identified intervertebral fat pad degenerates after intervertebral disc injury in a rat model of degeneration

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 435-444, August 2026.
This study characterizes a newly‐described intervertebral fat pad (IVFP) anterior to rat IVDs, with evidence for its existence in mice and human IVDs as well. In rats, the IVFP gradually degenerated following IVD injury with changes in adipocyte size and fibrous tissue infiltration, suggesting it could play a functional role in IVD health and ...

Compensatory Effects of Joint Bracing From a Kinetic Chain Perspective: Lower Limb Movement Coordination Analysis During Badminton Lunge Movements

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated ankle, knee, and hip joint movement coordination during brace use via a lower‐limb kinematic chain approach, which may influence biomechanical factors associated with injury risk. Twenty badminton players performed a left forecourt kick lunge under four brace conditions. Kinematic and kinetic data were collected using a

Cercopithecid Monkeys From the Pleistocene Markaytoli Site at Ledi‐Geraru, Afar Region, Ethiopia

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Cercopithecid monkeys are ubiquitous across much of sub‐Saharan Africa today, where they contribute much to the ecological and taxonomic diversity seen in modern African primate communities. Plio‐Pleistocene assemblages from eastern Africa also preserve a rich cercopithecid fossil record, albeit one dominated by papionins and by ...

Estimation of calcaneal deformation while standing from the boolean operation between 3D and footprint image and its comparison with lateral x-ray

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Load and deformation in the calcaneal/heel region are often studied because of their potential for pain. Research conducted before proved that the calcaneal region receives large loads, both standing and walking, mainly due to excessive body weight ...

Novel application of gamification to support undergraduate anatomy: Student perceptions and performance

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 876-890, June 2026.
Abstract Anatomy is a foundational component of various medical and paramedical disciplines. Existing research has suggested that games or game elements can improve student interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy. This project builds on previous gamification and serious game work and incorporates new anatomy‐based games into undergraduate anatomy ...
