Technical tips and tricks for complex biplanar high tibial osteotomies
Abstract Purpose While traditional high tibial osteotomy (HTO) techniques primarily address malalignment in the coronal plane, the significance of sagittal plane alignment, particularly the posterior tibial slope (PTS), is not to be overlooked in the setting of cruciate ligament insufficiency.

The Introduction of Chickens Into Norway and Their Early Use: New Evidence From the Borgund Kaupang
ABSTRACT Chickens reached areas of northern Europe by the 6th to 5th century bce, but their dispersal into Scandinavia appears delayed. Here we present a thorough assessment of chicken remains recovered from Borgund, a deserted late Viking Age–Medieval urban site located near Ålesund on the west coast of Norway. Direct and indirect dating of 20 chicken

From the Womb to the Tomb: Identifying Calving Deaths in Archaeology
ABSTRACT Dystocia, or difficult birth, is a major cause of maternal and neonatal mortality in both human and animal populations, yet its archaeological visibility remains remarkably low. This paper explores the diagnostic potential of archaeological deposits of pregnant livestock, particularly cattle, to identify cases of calving‐related mortality.
