The 9+ month marathon: How pregnancy may have shaped human endurance capacities

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Anthropology has long considered the evolution of our uniquely human endurance capacities to be the result of selection upon anatomical and physiological features imposed by the demands of thermoregulation and resource acquisition, particularly during the demands of persistence hunting. Research has focused on the anatomical changes present in

Developmental differences in cortical bone structure in chimpanzee and human femora reflect early locomotor independence in humans

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cortical bone structure of long bone diaphyses changes throughout growth via skeletal modeling and has important implications for bone strength and structural integrity. Ontogenetic trends in diaphyseal structure have been identified in both chimpanzees and humans but it is not yet clear how these trends compare given notable differences ...

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

Pelvic breadth and juvenile locomotor energetics: Implications for the obstetrical dilemma hypothesis across human growth in past and present humans

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The obstetrical dilemma hypothesis (ODH) proposes an evolutionary trade‐off between obstetric requirements and locomotor performance. However, whether external pelvic breadth measures influence walking energetics during human growth remains poorly understood.

Hormonal control and signaling of the testis of the bat Molossus molossus during the processes of testicular maturation, regression, and recrudescence

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Molossus molossus, a species of neotropical bat belonging to the Molossidae family, has an annual reproductive cycle that includes two peaks of spermatogenic activity, one in April and another in September, and a period of total testicular regression in December.
