Bipedalism or bipedalisms: The os coxae of StW 573
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 163-183, February 2026.There has been a long debate about the possibility of multiple contemporaneous species of Australopithecus in both eastern and southern Africa, potentially exhibiting different forms of bipedal locomotion. Here, we describe the previously unreported morphology of the os coxae in the 3.67 Ma Australopithecus prometheus StW 573 from Sterkfontein Member 2

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Painful muscle spasms are characterized by sudden onset of involuntary muscle contractions accompanying severe pain. The occurrence of painful muscle spasms after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is extremely rare in clinical practice. We report a case in which a patient developed painful muscle spasms after THA, and symptoms were controlled by ...
