Unfused transverse foramen of the atlas vertebra in the Neandertal lineage fossils
Abstract In anatomically modern humans, the atlas can display an unfused transverse foramen (UTF) but currently the presence of UTF in the Neandertal lineage is uncertain due to a scarcity of prevalence studies and no exhaustive record of its presence throughout the entire hominin fossil record.

Atlantodental Osteoarthritis as a Cause of Upper Cervical Myelopathy: A Case Report
Atlantoaxial instability frequently causes extrinsic cervical myelopathy via anterior displacement of the posterior arch of the atlas. However, upper cervical myelopathy resulting from atlantodental osteoarthritis with the hypertrophic dens due to ...

Patterns of spinal motion, kinematic spaces and the land‐to‐sea transition in carnivorans
Using 3D reconstructions, we quantify intervertebral joint mobility to investigate how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebral regions evolved distinct kinematic roles in pinnipeds. The findings reveal lineage‐specific adaptations for swimming and highlight the functional significance of vertebral joint flexibility in ecological transitions.

Cervical Myelopathy at Craniovertebral Junction Secondary to Compression by Posterior Atlanto-occipital Membrane: A Case Report [PDF]
The Craniovertebral Junction (CVJ) comprises of the skull base (occipital bone), upper cervical spine (atlas and axis) and surrounding neurovascular structures, including the brainstem, spinal cord and vertebral arteries.

The influence of contraction duration in muscle energy technique applied to the atlanto-axial joint
Background: Muscle Energy Technique (MET) has been advocated for the treatment of restricted range of motion in the upper neck. There is little evidence, however, to support the effectiveness of MET to increase motion in the cervical spine, or determine ...
