Does ulnar curvature covary with locomotion and substrate use in cercopithecids?

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates ulnar curvature in cercopithecids in relation to locomotor behaviors, introducing an analysis of anteroposterior and mediolateral curvature, using geometric morphometric on 167 specimens (23 species). Although the two curvatures distinguish arboreal and terrestrial quadrupeds, their moderate covariation suggests that they ...

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Five new species of Pristimantis (Anura: Strabomantidae) from the coastal cloud forest of the Península de Paria, Venezuela

Journal of Threatened Taxa, 2015
Fieldwork in the cloud forest of Venezuela’s remote Península de Paria in 2001 resulted in the collection of several specimens that could unquestionably be classified as members of the genus Pristimantis.

A description of dental microanatomy and implantation geometry in Chamaeleonidae

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A reassessment of the dental histology in adult chamaeleons reveals the presence of periodontal ligament. Alongside alveolar bone and cementum, these tissues together constitute a compacted and remodelled tripartite periodontium. Our findings include the novel observation of plicidentine‐like protuberances of dentine within underlying bone.

Comparative learning outcomes of 3D-printed models, real specimens, and 2D materials in veterinary anatomy education: a controlled experimental design with 261 students

Frontiers in Education
BackgroundVeterinary anatomy education has traditionally relied on cadaveric specimens and two-dimensional (2D) educational resources, such as textbooks and atlases.

Layer‐by‐layer soft‐tissue effects on flexion–extension‐dominant passive ex vivo limb joint ROM in quadrupedal mammals: An anatomical contribution to a morphofunctional framework

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Layer‐by‐layer passive ex vivo assessment of flexion–extension‐dominant limb joint ROM across rabbit, pudu deer, chilla fox and pig revealed joint‐, tissue‐ and taxon‐specific responses to progressive tissue removal. Proximal joints often showed increasing ROM, whereas distal joints often showed non‐monotonic responses.

Use of Platelet‐Rich Fibrin (PRF) on Palatal Wound Healing: A Narrative Review With Clinical Recommendations

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Based on the available evidence, the application of platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF) following free gingival graft (FGG) and subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) harvesting appears to be a promising approach for enhancing wound healing, minimizing postoperative complications, and reducing analgesic consumption. ABSTRACT This clinical narrative review

Peri‐Implant Soft‐Tissue Phenotype Modification for Refractory Peri‐Implant Mucositis: A 12‐Month Prospective Clinical Study With Ultrasonographic Analysis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Surgical treatment of refractory peri‐implant mucositis with a free gingival graft (FGG) was effective in disease resolution, achieving reductions in probing pocket depth (PPD) and inflammation. Significant gains in mucosal thickness (MT) and keratinized mucosa width (KMW), as well as partial recession coverage and re‐establishment of attached mucosa ...

Macrophage Phenotype Alterations in Treated Periodontitis Patients Suggest a Pro‐Inflammatory Bias

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Monocyte‐derived macrophages from successfully treated stage III periodontitis patients show a persistent skewing toward an M1‐like pro‐inflammatory phenotype across polarization conditions, suggesting that immune dysregulation may persist despite clinical periodontal stability.
