Tracheal chambers as a key innovation for high‐frequency emission in bat echolocation
Abstract Key innovations are pivotal for biodiversity and facilitating evolutionary success, enabling organisms' adaptation to various ecological niches through the diversification of phenotypic traits. In mammals, notable adaptations include evolving hypsodonty for grazing on grasses and, for bats, evolving echolocation and wing acquisition.

An enhanced method of rapid cartilage healing after costal cartilage resection
Background: In this study we aimed to compare the effects of leaving the perichondrial sheaths open, closing the sheaths reciprocally, and leaving the resected cartilages in the perichondrial bed as small autologous grafts to clarify the effect of ...

Scaling and ecomorphology of lagomorph body shape and appendicular skeleton
Abstract Body shape is one of the most prominent features of phenotypic variation. Yet, mammalian body shapes are poorly quantified and the underlying components contributing to its diversity and its relationship to other skeletal components are rarely tested.

Estimating in vivo midfoot and hindfoot joint locations using external skin markers
Abstract Musculoskeletal modeling offers a non‐invasive approach to analyze human movement, enabling estimation of forces that are difficult to measure experimentally. In musculoskeletal modeling, the human body is represented as rigid segments connected by joints.

Abstract Composed of various minerals, the eggshell provides ideal conditions for embryonic development, and understanding its composition and structure is essential for clarifying its relationship with bone formation. This study characterized the structure and mineral profile of the Rhinoclemmys punctularia punctularia eggshell in relation to ...

Assessment of intraspecific skull variation in the Campanian baenid turtle Plesiobaena antiqua
Abstract Baenids are freshwater paracryptodiran turtles with a fossil record ranging from the Early Cretaceous to the Eocene. The baenid Plesiobaena antiqua is the most common turtle in the Campanian (Late Cretaceous) Dinosaur Park Formation in Canada, but the apparent intraspecific variation remains poorly understood.

Abstract This study, alongside prior work on crab‐eating macaques with O'Higgins, investigates regional variation in skull sexual dimorphism across different species of Old World monkeys. Findings reveal consistent patterns: the posterior skull regions (mandibular vertical ramus, chondrocranium and, possibly, the cranial vault) exhibit lower dimorphism,

Purpose To perform a systematic review evaluating the efficacy of orthobiologic injections as adjuncts to cartilage‐preserving surgery in improving clinical, radiographic, and histologic outcomes in adults with focal knee cartilage defects. Methods Four databases (PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Scopus) were searched through September 2025 for randomized ...

Purpose To evaluate how major United States commercial insurers justify medical‐necessity criteria for knee osteochondral allograft (OCA) transplantation, characterize the level of evidence (LOE) cited within their policies, and assess whether coverage criteria are supported by the cited literature.
