Modelling the anabolic response of bone using a cell population model [PDF]
J Theor Biol 307 (2012) 42-52, 2011 To maintain bone mass during bone remodelling, coupling is required between bone resorption and bone formation. This coordination is achieved by a network of autocrine and paracrine signalling molecules between cells of the osteoclast lineage and cells of the osteoblastic lineage.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hereditary multiple osteochondromas (HMO) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by heterozygous deleterious variants in the EXT1 or EXT2 genes. While the clinical core phenotype is well established and mainly consists of bone deformities, limb length discrepancies, multiple benign bone neoplasms, and increased risk of chondrosarcoma, the ...

Fractures and Dislocations of the Carpal Bones [PDF]
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1986 The most common wrist fractures in athletes are fractures of the scaphoid and fractures of the hook of the hamate. Accurate diagnosis and conservative treatment are extremely important. A physician should not compromise principles of treatment for a rapid return of the athlete to competition, because all too often this will jeopardize eventual recovery

Is cranial anatomy indicative of fossoriality? A case study of the mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Determining the ecology of fossil species presents considerable challenges due to the often fragmentary preservation of specimens. The mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui from the Jurassic of China is known only from the cranium and mandible but may have had a fossorial lifestyle.

Attention-Guided Discriminative Region Localization and Label Distribution Learning for Bone Age Assessment [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Bone age assessment (BAA) is clinically important as it can be used to diagnose endocrine and metabolic disorders during child development. Existing deep learning based methods for classifying bone age use the global image as input, or exploit local information by annotating extra bounding boxes or key points.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Multicentric Carpo-Tarsal Osteolysis
Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2023 MCTO is a rare autosomal-dominant inherited disorder that causes bone destruction and deformity of the appendicular bones in children, with the carpal and tarsal bones severely affected.

Breast Cancer Induced Bone Osteolysis Prediction Using Temporal Variational Auto-Encoders [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Objective and Impact Statement. We adopt a deep learning model for bone osteolysis prediction on computed tomography (CT) images of murine breast cancer bone metastases. Given the bone CT scans at previous time steps, the model incorporates the bone-cancer interactions learned from the sequential images and generates future CT images.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Longitudinal skeletal growth takes place in the cartilaginous growth plates. While growth plates are found at either end of conventional long bones, they occur at a variety of locations in the mammalian skeleton. For example, the metacarpals and metatarsals (MT) in the hands and feet form only a single growth plate at one end, and ...

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,
