Humeral Nail: Comparison of the Antegrade and Retrograde Application
Application of humeral nail in the treatment of humeral shaft fractures is a relatively novel method of fracture fixation. Its application at Clinical Department of Traumatology, Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Center began in 2001.

Throwing enhances humeral shaft cortical bone properties in pre-pubertal baseball players: a 12-month longitudinal pilot study [PDF]
Objectives: To explore throwing athletes as a prospective, within-subject controlled model for studying the response of the skeleton to exercise. Methods: Male pre-pubertal throwing athletes (n=12; age=10.3±0.6 yrs) had distal humerus cortical ...

Constrained variation in the internal architecture of avian wing bones
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Extant birds exhibit remarkable ecological disparity accompanied by widespread skeletal convergence driven by functional adaptation. Investigations of morphofunctional associations with ecological factors have frequently focused on the external morphology of avian wing ...

Mechanical Characterization of Fourth Generation Composite Humerus [PDF]
Mechanical data on upper extremity surrogate bones, supporting use as biomechanical tools, is limited. The objective of this study was to characterize the structural behaviour of the fourth-generation composite humerus under simulated physiologic bending,

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations
ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.
