Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

A 50‐year perspective on the use and potential of artiodactyl calcanei in bone adaptation studies

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sheep and deer calcanei are important models for studying cortical (compact) and trabecular (cancellous) bone adaptation because they are amenable to direct strain measurement (due to lack of surrounding muscles), experience relatively simple/unidirectional bending, exhibit osteon remodelling, and have the most pronounced regional variations ...

Pharmacological intervention: Challenges and promising outcomes for fat loss and preservation of lean body mass in the treatment of overweight and type 2 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Treatment with GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) is effective in reducing body weight in individuals with overweight and type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, measurements indicate that a considerable portion of the weight loss derives from fat‐free mass (FFM), including skeletal muscle, which may compromise metabolic health and physical function.

4 mm cannulatedcancellous screws fixation in extra articular distal 1/3 radius fracture - A study [PDF]

open access: yesAl Ameen Journal of Medical Sciences, 2017
Background: Distal radius fracture are extremely common and represents 16% of fractures treated by orthopaedic surgeons. Near anatomical reduction with restoration of radial length, radial tilt and ulnar variances are important for good functional ...

Diagnostic imaging and successful outcome of a lateral collateral ligament desmitis of the elbow joint

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary A 13‐year‐old Belgian jumping mare was presented with acute onset of severe left forelimb lameness after a jumping competition. Radiographic evaluation showed the presence of periosteal bone formation on the lateral radial eminence, while ultrasonography revealed an injury of the lateral collateral ligament of the elbow associated with severe ...

Streaming potential analysis of hair variation: Ethnicities and environmental exposures

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Ethnicity and weathering shape electrokinetic behaviour and particle deposition in hair. ζ‐potential magnitudes ranked Caucasian > Indian > Chinese with no significant root‐tip variations. Deposition patterns generally correlate with ζ‐potential but differ by ethnicity, implicating other factors.

Effect of Cortical Block Allograft Tenting Pins for Horizontal Bone Augmentation: A Case Series

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this pilot case study was to evaluate the effect of horizontal bone augmentation using cortical block allograft absorbable tenting pins (ATP) in the context of guided bone regeneration (GBR). Clinical Considerations Three patients requiring implant placement with simultaneous horizontal bone augmentation were treated with ...

3D morphological analysis of age and sex‐related changes in human cortical bone remodeling spaces using micro‐CT

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates human cortical bone remodeling space morphology and its relationship with age and sex using micro‐CT imaging. Remodeling space morphology exhibits great inter‐ and intraindividual variation. Its dimensions decrease with increasing age, but do not differ between sexes.
