Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

Hypermobility syndrome

, 2011
Hypermobility-related syndromes constitute a family of heritable disorders of connective tissue (HDCT) that derive from abnormalities affecting genes that encode for the connective tissue matrix proteins such as collagen, fibrillin, and tenascin. They range from such commonplace though poorly recognized conditions such as the joint hypermobility ...

Variant connective tissue (joint hypermobility) and dysautonomia are associated with multimorbidity at the intersection between physical and psychological health

American Journal of Medical Genetics. Part C, Seminars in Medical Genetics, 2021
The symptoms of joint hypermobility extend beyond articular pain. Hypermobile people commonly experience autonomic symptoms (dysautonomia), and anxiety or related psychological issues.

Anatomic All‐Inside Repair of the Anteroinferior and Posterosuperior Popliteomeniscal Fascicles for Hypermobile Lateral Meniscus

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypermobile lateral meniscus refers to abnormal mobility of an otherwise morphologically normal meniscus without obvious tears, causing lateral knee pain due to catching or locking of the lateral meniscus during flexion. The most common cause is rupture or elongation of the popliteomeniscal fascicles (PMFs), which connect the lateral meniscus ...

Between soft power and suspicion: Chinese international students as diasporic actors in U.S.‐China geopolitical tensions

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the under‐theorized political role and identity of Chinese international students, who emerge as significant actors caught between U.S. soft power ambitions and rising geopolitical suspicion. Amid escalating U.S.‐China tensions, these students are forced to confront environments shaped by competing geopolitical discourses ...

Exploring the early observations of parents supporting their children with school attendance problems (SAPs): A co‐produced study

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract School Attendance Problems (SAPs) represent a significant challenge requiring early identification and intervention. Current service provision often does not recognise early indicators that parents observe, creating gaps between when initial concerns are raised and formal support is provided.

Chiari I Malformation: Review and Update of Current Treatment Options

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pathophysiology of Chiari malformation type I (CM‐I) is complex, involving structural abnormalities at the craniovertebral junction that result in herniation of the cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum. In this study, we aim to present and evaluate current treatment options for CM‐I, with a focus on evidence‐based clinical ...

The Role of Language in Shaping Cultural Perceptions Within Healthcare and Supporting Neurodivergent People's Well‐being and Access to Care: Focus on Autistic Experiences

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Chronic stigmatisation and social exclusion of neurodivergent people have resulted in poorer quality of life and adverse health outcomes. Language has been weaponised and has furthered their suffering and isolation. With this paper, we propose some considerations of optimal communication interactions in healthcare with neurodivergent people, in general,

"Could a subset of joint mobility tests define generalized joint hypermobility?": A descriptive observational inception study.

PLoS ONE
BackgroundGeneralized joint hypermobility is an inherited collagen phenotype based on clinical assessments of joint mobility. However, there is no international consensus to define generalized joint hypermobility, both considering which joint mobility ...
