Updating the forelimb anatomy of the domestic cat (Felis catus, Felidae) based on evolutionary inferences of its muscles and nerves I: Shoulder and brachium

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this study, we provide a detailed description of the shoulder and brachium muscles and the brachial plexus of the domestic cat (Felis catus). We identified muscular variants (articularis humeri, coracobrachialis longus, biceps brachii caput breve), clarified the independence of the anconeus medialis muscle from the triceps brachii muscle, and ...

A bristle‐nosed Jurassic ray‐finned fish (Actinopterygii) bears true dermal odontodes on its snout

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Teeth show extreme diversity, including tooth‐like dermal odontodes or “skin teeth” in many extant fishes. We describe the anatomy of enlarged tubercles on the snout of Redfieldius, an extinct early Jurassic fish. We found that the tubercles in Redfieldius are dermal odontodes that evolved independently from those of living species. Abstract Comparison

Functional morphology and biomechanics of the locomotor apparatus in the large Late Triassic carnivore Postosuchus kirkpatricki (Archosauria: Rauisuchidae)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional model is used to analyze the locomotor biomechanics of the large Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Postosuchus kirkpatricki. The study finds that it is more uncertain than previously concluded whether it was quadrupedal or bipedal, and plantigrade or digitigrade, but it clearly had locomotor specializations including large hindlimb

Reverse Versus Modified Judet Approach for Extra‐Articular Glenoid Neck and Scapular Body Fractures: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study shows that the reverse Judet approach provides functional results similar to the modified Judet approach in treating scapular fractures. Importantly, it greatly reduces the size of the incision and limits soft tissue dissection, which decreases surgical trauma. Therefore, the reverse Judet approach is a safe and effective option for treating

Heat thermotherapy to improve cardiovascular function and cardiometabolic health: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Heat thermotherapy (HT) is reported to promote cardiovascular (CV) and cardiometabolic health benefits. This systematic review and meta‐analysis (CRD42020193669) empirically investigated the efficacy of HT in improving CV and cardiometabolic parameters by assessing responses to single versus multiple HT bouts.

The effect of repeated hot water immersion on microvascular function, glycaemic control and inflammation in White European and South Asian males

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Individuals of South Asian (SA) descent display a higher risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus than their White European (WE) counterparts. Heat therapy, such as hot water immersion (HWI), can improve microvascular function and glycaemic control, although effects across racial groups are unknown.

Seven days of warm‐water immersion enhances resting irisin and BDNF, but not klotho, in older men

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We examined whether seven consecutive days of warm‐water immersion could elevate resting and exercise‐induced levels of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), irisin and klotho in older adults. These biomarkers support cognitive and metabolic health, but their levels decline with age.

Affective CT‐touch attenuates cortical responses and subjective attention during temporal summation of second pain

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The study investigated the modulatory effects of affective touch on temporal summation of second pain (TSSP) in 32 romantic couples (N = 64). The design included a dyadic session (partner's CT‐optimal stroking vs. static touch) and an individual session (robotic CT‐touch vs. vibration control).
