Injuries in deep time: interpreting competitive behaviours in extinct reptiles via palaeopathology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For over a century, palaeopathology has been used as a tool for understanding evolution, disease in past communities and populations, and to interpret behaviour of extinct taxa. Physical traumas in particular have frequently been the justification for interpretations about aggressive and even competitive behaviours in extinct taxa.

Diet of bird‐like troodontid dinosaurs: synthesis of a contentious clade

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Troodontidae is a clade of small‐to medium‐sized maniraptoran theropods that mainly lived in Laurasia (modern Asia, North America and Europe) during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods and are believed to have had a variety of diets. The uniqueness of troodontid teeth suggests that they diverged from the typical flesh‐based diet of non‐avian ...

Morphological Analysis of the Latissimus Dorsi Tendon Insertion: Implications for Optimizing Tendon Transfer Surgeries in Rotator Cuff Repair

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Latissimus dorsi (LD) tendon transfer is widely used to treat irreparable rotator cuff tears, particularly in cases with posterosuperior and anterosuperior tear patterns. We conducted a comprehensive anatomical analysis of the attachment of the LD tendon to the humerus, focusing on its morphological patterns and morphometric features, which ...

Ultrasound-assisted measurement of humeral version: a radiation-sparing alternative to whole-humerus computed tomography [PDF]

Clinics in Shoulder and Elbow
Background Humeral version is a key parameter in preoperative planning for reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA). Although computed tomography (CT) of the entire humerus is required to measure humeral version accurately, standard preoperative ...

Clinical and research applications of synthetic bone substitutes in equine veterinary medicine: A systematic review

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bone grafting in equine medicine offers a promising contribution to treating orthopaedic developmental diseases and chondral, osteochondral and segmental bone defects. Among grafts, synthetic bone substitutes—alloplastics—show favourable biological properties addressing numerous limitations presented by autografts, xenografts and ...

Correlation of anthropometric parameters with serum progesterone levels for the prediction of ovulation in infertile women in Ile‐Ife, Nigeria

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To correlate anthropometric parameters with serum levels of progesterone (P4) for the prediction of ovulation in infertile women. Methods Body mass index (BMI), cormic index (CI), waist‐hip ratio (WHR), waist‐height ratio (WHtR), neck circumference (NC) and triceps skinfold thickness (TSF) were measured for 60 anovulatory and ...

An Analysis of Radiographers' False Preliminary Image Evaluation Comments in One New Zealand District

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Preliminary image evaluation (PIE) comment errors were evaluated for common errors. These include missed avulsion fractures in the finger, hand, and wrist, while accessory bones in the feet and ankle were mistaken for abnormalities. Identifying these errors provides guidance for ongoing, regular, targeted training to help improve PIE accuracy rates ...

Sonographic localisation of lymph nodes suspicious of metastatic breast cancer to surgical axillary levels

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 119-138, March 2025.
Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...
