Rethinking brachycephaly: Anatomical implications and health considerations in lagomorphs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Brachycephaly in domestic rabbits is increasingly perceived by welfare organizations as associated with significant health complications, particularly oral pathologies. Despite this perception, comparative anatomical research into rabbit brachycephaly is limited compared to that of dogs and cats, compelling an in‐depth examination of its ...

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

The fossil record stays silent: Confusions and conundrums for hominin pelvis evolution

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolution of the hominin pelvis is commonly modeled as a series of stages driven largely by the requirements of bipedal locomotion, reproduction, thermoregulation, and pelvic floor muscular support. These patterns are complicated by variation in canal dimensions in relationship with different changes in overall pelvic breadths. To quantify

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

Lateral Extra‐articular Procedures Decrease Rates of Graft Failure and Positive Pivot Shift in Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To synthesize the existing literature on clinical outcomes and patient‐reported outcome measures following primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and lateral extra‐articular procedures (LEAP) in randomized controlled trials, whereas also determining ceiling effects for the patient‐reported outcome measures utilized.

Hip Arthroscopy in Adults Aged 40 or Older Produces Clinically Meaningful Symptom Improvement but Carries a Substantial Risk of Conversion to Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To report conversion rates to total hip arthroplasty (THA), patient‐reported outcome measures, and complication rates in adults aged ≥ 40 years undergoing hip arthroscopy since 2016. Methods MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed were searched from January 2016 to March 2025, and pertinent data were abstracted from eligible studies according to the ...
