Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.This study characterizes a newly‐described intervertebral fat pad (IVFP) anterior to rat IVDs, with evidence for its existence in mice and human IVDs as well. In rats, the IVFP gradually degenerated following IVD injury with changes in adipocyte size and fibrous tissue infiltration, suggesting it could play a functional role in IVD health and ...

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Phenotypic characteristics of paroxysmal dyskinesia in 25 cats
Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.Objectives Paroxysmal dyskinesia has, to date, been reported only systematically in Sphynx cats. This study aims to describe paroxysmal dyskinesia in additional breeds. Materials and Methods The medical records of cats from multiple hospitals presenting with episodes consistent with paroxysmal dyskinesia between 2020 and 2025 were retrospectively ...

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1464-1477, May 2025.This study compares the biomechanical effects of three anterior fixation systems in thoracolumbar surgery—HXTL, NHXTL, and Medtronic's CD Horizon ANTERIOR. Finite element analysis evaluates stress and displacement across vertebral bodies and support structures under varying load conditions. Results indicate the HXTL system minimizes nail–rod stress yet
