Elephant trunks: Strength and dexterity from mini-fascicles. [PDF]
, 2023 Muscular hydrostats, such as the elephant trunk, can perform precise motor actions. A new study has revealed that the elephant trunk contains a dense network of tiny muscle fascicles, suggesting that muscle miniaturization may be a key toward ...

The Effects of Onychectomy (Declawing) on Forearm and Leg Myology in a Kinkajou (Potos flavus)
AnimalsRecently, onychectomy, the “declaw” surgery in which all or part of the distal phalanges are removed, has been shown to have significant effects on the forearm muscles of felids. While this surgery should clearly affect the limb muscles (especially those

Combined DTI Tractography and Functional MRI Study of the Language Connectome in Healthy Volunteers: Extensive Mapping of White Matter Fascicles and Cortical Activations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Despite a better understanding of brain language organization into large-scale cortical networks, the underlying white matter (WM) connectivity is still not mastered.

Altered Gastrocnemius Contractile Behavior in Former Achilles Tendon Rupture Patients During Walking
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) remains associated with functional limitations years after injury. Architectural remodeling of the gastrocnemius medialis (GM) muscle is typically observed in the affected leg and may compensate force deficits caused by a ...

Specimen dimensions influence the measurement of material properties in tendon fascicles [PDF]
, 2010 Stress, strain and modulus are regularly used to characterize material properties of tissue samples. However, when comparing results from different studies it is evident the reported material properties, particularly failure strains, vary hugely. The aim
