MRI‐based, 3D analysis of Achilles tendon longitudinal strain under passive loading reveals limitations in conventional 2D measurement

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Graphical overview of 2D and 3D length measurements of the free Achilles tendon. The figure also illustrates how the typical distal morphology of the soleus muscle affects 2D measurement. Abstract Quantifying strain in the free Achilles tendon (ATF) is essential for understanding its mechanical function, yet existing in vivo studies report inconsistent

Preliminary Study on the Comparison of Calcaneus Taping and Arch Taping Methods for Flexible Flatfoot Subjects

open access: yesPhysical Therapy Korea, 2023
Background: The flexible flatfoot is characterized by a flattening of the foot arch due to excessive bodyweight. The use of shoe insoles or taping methods has been identified as effective in realigning the navicular or calcaneus bones and addressing ...

Comparative functional morphological study of the tarsal joint mobility in artiodactyls and perissodactyls in light of astragalar morphological differences

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigated how variations in the shape of the astragalus affect tarsal joint behavior, using CT scans. In artiodactyls with a double‐pulley astragalus, the calcaneus shifted plantarly during plantarflexion. This suggests the movement increases hindlimb functional length and contributes to enhanced running speed.

A review of the state of art in applying Biot theory to acoustic propagation through the bone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Understanding the propagation of acoustic waves through a liquid-perfused porous solid framework such as cancellous bone is an important pre-requisite to improve the diagnosis of osteoporosis by ultrasound.

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Kinematic Foot Types in Youth with Equinovarus Secondary to Hemiplegia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Elevated kinematic variability of the foot and ankle segments exists during gait among individuals with equinovarus secondary to hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP). Clinicians have previously addressed such variability by developing classification
