From sagittal to sprawled: Clavicular co‐option and the evolution of forelimb mechanics in talpines

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Forelimb posture in Eulipotyphla divides into sagittal and sprawled groups with distinct scapular and clavicular orientations. First true rib strength scales with body mass, reflecting vertical ground reaction forces, whereas clavicular strength reflects differences in medially directed forces on the pectoral girdle, especially pronounced in highly ...

Surgical Management of Gout-Complicated Humeral Nonunion

Philippine Journal of Orthopaedics
Humeral shaft fractures may progress to nonunion despite operative management. We report a 50-year-old male with repeated surgical failure of a left humeral shaft fracture, found intraoperatively to have uric acid crystal deposition within the ...

A retrospective insight into patterns of humeral shaft fractures among Nigerians from radiological viewpoint

, 2016
Background: Fractures of the humeral shaft account for 1–3% of all fractures in adults and for 20% of all humeral fractures in some populations.Objective: This study was aimed at classifying the pattern of humeral shaft fractures among Nigerian using the

Bone histological evidence for posture‐related load transmission in the talpid pectoral girdle

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Bone histology of the clavicle and scapula revealed distinct load‐bearing roles within the mammalian pectoral girdle associated with different forelimb postures. Hyper‐abducted moles exhibited an enhanced load‐bearing role of the clavicle, whereas the parasagittal shrew exhibited histological features consistent with the scapula acting as the principal

Prognostic factors for radial nerve palsy associated with humeral shaft fracture

Formosan Journal of Surgery, 2017
Background: Radial nerve palsy (RNP) associated with humeral shaft fracture is a common injury pattern in trauma patients. The management of RNP associated with humeral fractures in high-energy trauma is controversial and poses a challenge to surgeons ...

Modelling compressive loading in large‐bodied mammals reveals distinct biomechanical strategies in proboscidean humeri

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Graviportal proboscideans differ in limb morphology, adopting slender or more robust long bone morphotypes. Finite element analyses (FEA) on extant and extinct taxa reveal functional differences between morphotypes, with robust humeri exhibiting lower peak stress under neutral and off‐axis loading.

An Unusual Case of Humeral Shaft Non-Union

, 2020
Background: Humeral shaft fractures account for 1% to 3% of all fractures and approximately 20% of all fracture involving the humerus. The prevalence of non-union for diaphyseal humeral fractures has been reported as 1% to 10% after non-surgical and 10 ...

Bilateral Supracondylar Process in a Subadult in the Late Antique Age: A Case Report

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1178-1185, December 2026.
ABSTRACT During the excavation procedures for the railway trait Napoli‐Cancello, in the city of Afragola (Naples), several burials dating back to the Late Antique Age were found. One of them was an amphora burial (enchytrismòs) and contained the skeletal remains of a subadult individual affected by bilateral supracondylar process. Supracondylar process
