The “costly son” hypothesis: Sons exacerbate obstetrical dilemmas in humans and other mammals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth has often been considered uniquely difficult among mammals, yet recent evidence suggests that obstructed labor and fetopelvic disproportion are widespread across placental mammals. Here, we propose the “costly son” hypothesis: because male offspring are typically larger at birth, they impose greater obstetric risk on mothers ...

Anatomy and variation in the paraphyletic Mosasaurus lemonnieri assemblage from the Craie phosphatée de ciply, Belgium

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Nineteenth century excavations of the Ciply‐Malogne Phosphatic Chalk Formation in Hainaut, Belgium, yielded over 50 partial mosasaur skeletons, the majority of which were referred to the species Mosasaurus lemonnieri Dollo, 1889. In the years since, this taxon has experienced a complicated taxonomic history, and its exceptional hypodigm has ...

Peak Serum Vancomycin Levels Are Achieved Between 6 and 24 Hours After Implantation of Vancomycin‐Soaked Anterior Cruciate Ligament Grafts

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To examine systemic exposure and elution characteristics of liquid vancomycin‐soaked anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) grafts in vivo by assessing serum vancomycin levels over 48 hours after ACL reconstruction and comparing the resulting concentrations with the toxic threshold of 15 to 20 μg/mL.
