Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
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.

Treatment Trade‐Offs and Choices for Femoral Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1298-1313, May 2025.
This review examines the trade‐offs between surgical intervention and traction therapy for adult and elderly patients with femoral fractures and surgical contraindications, particularly in resource‐limited settings. While intramedullary nailing may offer better clinical outcomes, traction therapy is often preferred due to limited surgical resources ...
