Trabecular bone ontogeny of the human talus

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies of trabecular ontogeny may provide insight into the factors that drive healthy bone development. There is a growing understanding of how the juvenile skeleton responds to these influences; however, gaps in our knowledge remain. This study aims to identify ontogenetic trabecular patterns and regional changes during development within ...

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

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
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 ...

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

Journal 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.

岐阜県熊石洞産の後期更新世のヤベオオツノジカとヘラジカの化石（その２）体幹骨・肢骨 [PDF]

, 2017
中部日本に位置する熊石洞は，数多くの後期更新世の哺乳類化石を産出している．その中には，ヤベオオツノジカ（Sinomegaceros yabei）とヘラジカ（Alces alces）の2種の大型シカ化石が多量に含まれている．本稿では，体骨の詳細な記載と計測を行い，ヤベオオツノジカとヘラジカの体骨の識別点を初めて明確に示した．またヤベオオツノジカの肢骨を中国産のSinomegaceros 属の種，ならびにアイルランド産のMegaloceros giganteusの骨と比較した．その結果 ...

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

Journal 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.

An Exploratory Statistical Shape Modeling Analysis of Three‐Dimensional Foot Alignment in Female Patients With Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Progressive collapsing foot deformity (PCFD) is a complex condition characterized by multiple combined deformities, with a higher reported prevalence in women. Most studies of PCFD morphology have focused on single joints and evaluated both sexes together, leaving the interrelationship of multiple joints in females specifically ...

Morphological Similarities of Chronic Ankle Instability and Cavus Foot Type Using Statistical Shape Modeling

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Chronic ankle instability (CAI) can develop in up to 40% of patients after a first‐time ankle sprain. Advanced imaging and statistical shape modeling (SSM) provide the opportunity to evaluate if subtle differences in foot and ankle morphology, such as hindfoot alignment or cavus features, may contribute to structural predispositions for ...

Effects of Orthotic Insoles on Gait Biomechanics in Runners With Flatfoot Under Different Gait Loads

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to quantify the biomechanical performance of the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) in the normal foot (NF), flatfoot (FF), and flatfoot with orthotic insoles (FF + insole) under different gait loads to identify their movement response strategies.

Changes in Foot Biomechanics During Pregnancy: Associations With Plantar Pressure, Low Back Pain and Daily Function in Taiwanese Women

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Longitudinal data on pregnancy‐related changes in plantar loading and balance are limited, particularly among Asian populations. This study investigated trimester‐specific alterations in plantar pressure, static and dynamic balance, and pain‐related functional interference in pregnant Taiwanese women.

Motors and Dampers: The Energetic Tradeoffs in the Shod Foot With Increasing Walking Velocity

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background The dual influences of velocity and footwear on ankle‐foot energetics are particularly relevant for clinical populations who rely on footwear during ambulation. Although walking velocity influences energetic demands of foot structures, footwear may modify these relationships by restricting joint motion.
