Injuries in deep time: interpreting competitive behaviours in extinct reptiles via palaeopathology
ABSTRACT For over a century, palaeopathology has been used as a tool for understanding evolution, disease in past communities and populations, and to interpret behaviour of extinct taxa. Physical traumas in particular have frequently been the justification for interpretations about aggressive and even competitive behaviours in extinct taxa.

Subungual Exostosis Presenting as a Cutaneous Lesion: A Diagnostic Challenge
Beyond skin: Unveiling the bony truth of Subungual Exostosis. ABSTRACT Subungual exostosis is a benign outgrowth arising from the distal phalanx which often presents as a painful, firm mass beneath or adjacent to the nail bed.

A Novel Decomposition‐Based Growth Model for Simulating Stress‐Modulated Spinal Growth
This study introduces the first decomposition‐based finite‐strain growth model for a simplified Functional Spinal Unit, where growth occurs simultaneously with mechanical loading. The approach eliminates the major physical inconsistency of sequential methods—growth in an artificial stress‐free configuration—while preventing mesh distortion and ...

Diversity of Resilin Incidence in the Insect Leg
Resilin incidences in the insect cuticle are commonly detected by fluorescence microscopy using the property of Resilin protein matrices to emit blue light after excitation with UV light. This indirect method produces significant background signal.
