Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.Abstract Developmental hip dysplasia due to insufficient acetabular coverage and excessive pressure on the femoral head can easily lead to labral tears, damage to the labrum–cartilage junction, cam and pincer deformities, and joint capsule laxity. This may ultimately result in osteoarthritis.

Aesthetics for Green Roofs and Green Walls
Journal of Living Architecture, 2014 Do green roofs and green walls have aesthetic benefits? Most green roof proponents would say so. But what are they and how do they relate to green roof design in terms of species selection, planting arrangement, viewable context, access, maintenance and other factors? Aesthetics according to the Green Roof Design 101 Manual 2 nd Ed (GRHC 2006) provides

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...
