Drivers of tail evolution in squamates and their implications for the fossorial origin of snakes
Abstract The axial skeleton serves as the primary structural support in all vertebrates and is subdivided into five distinct regions: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and caudal. Relaxation of constraints acting on the terminal end of the axial skeleton has led to remarkable variation in caudal vertebrae number across Squamata.

Abstract Nowadays, Lepidosauria is a diverse group represented by squamates and the rhynchocephalian tuatara. However, their origins date back to the end of the Permian Period, when the stem lineages Lepidosauromorpha and Archosauromorpha diverged. Within the lepidosauromorph stem lineage, a few species have been described with unstable phylogenetic ...

Editorial Commentary: Hip Microinstability: From Diagnostic Chaos to Clinical Precision
Abstract Hip microinstability is now widely accepted as a distinct clinical entity, yet consensus on how to diagnose it remains elusive. A current systematic review found 23 studies proposing 32 distinct diagnostic criteria across clinical history, physical examination, imaging, and intraoperative findings, evidence of a field still searching for a ...

Early synovial regulatory T cell engagement in posttraumatic osteoarthritis
Objective Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) develops despite restoration of joint biomechanics, suggesting that early post‐injury biological processes within the synovium shape disease trajectories. We investigated whether synovial regulatory T (Treg) cells are engaged during the early phase following joint injury and whether experimental enrichment ...

King Aorta: Narrative anatomy education
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of narrative anatomy education and traditional anatomy education on academic achievement. The study included 64 students who were randomly divided into two groups. The two groups were (n = 32) control (Group 1) and (n = 32) experimental (Group 2). The pretest scores of the two groups were 36.
