Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Parrots (Order: Psittaciformes) are renowned for their high bite force (BF) and morphological correlates thereof, including a highly mobile skull and two unique mandibular adductor muscles—m. pseudomasseter and m. ethmomandibularis, with the former being hypothesized to increase force output.

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

Morphological plasticity in the dentition of the lungfish Gnathorhiza from the Permian of Brazil: A population‐level geometric morphometric analysis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental plates are pivotal in the lungfish paleontological record, constituting highly mineralized structures resilient to diagenetic processes. This study provides a detailed description and quantitative shape analysis of 95 newly discovered Gnathorhiza sp. dental plates from the Middle–Late Permian Corumbataí Formation, Brazil.

Cable Reinforcement Combined With Biologic Tuberoplasty Restores Muscle Forces and Scapular Strain in an Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tear Model: A Cadaveric Study

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To investigate the biomechanical impact of an irreparable rotator cuff tear and compare the isolated and combined effects of rotator cable reconstruction (CR) and biologic tuberoplasty (BioTB). Methods Eight cadaveric shoulders were tested using an ex vivo dynamic shoulder simulator in forward flexion (FF) and scapular plane abduction (SPA ...

Surgical Technique for Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair With All‐Polyester Patch Augmentation

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Rotator cuff repair failure remains a challenging problem, particularly in the setting of poor tendon quality or revision surgery. Patch augmentation has been introduced to reinforce repair constructs and improve healing rates, but many biologic and synthetic materials introduce drawbacks such as inflammatory response, increased bulk, donor ...

The “Minimizing Excessive Rotational Instability Technique” (MERI Technique): A Simple Lateral Tenodesis Reconstructing the Condylar Strap, the Distal Kaplan Fibers, and the Femoral Insertion of the Anterolateral Ligament to Control Internal Rotation During Anterior Cruciate Ligament Surgery

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The Minimizing Excessive Rotational Instability technique is a simple and minimally invasive lateral tenodesis designed to enhance internal rotation control during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction by reconstructing the distal Kaplan fibers, the condylar strap, and the femoral insertion of the anterolateral ligament.

Changes in hamstrings’ active stiffness during fatigue tasks are modulated by contraction duration rather than intensity

Scientific Reports
Despite the increase in research of hamstring stiffness through the use of ultrasound-based shear wave elastography, the active stiffness of biceps femoris long head (BFlh) and semitendinosus (ST) muscles under fatigue conditions at various contraction ...
