The skeleton of the green Iguana iguana (Squamata: Iguanidae) and its intraspecific morphological variation

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The green iguana (Iguana iguana) is an iguanine lizard with herbivorous and arboreal habits, whose distribution spans through South America, Central America to the south of North America. Although the genus Iguana is well‐known, the species still lacks a comprehensive and up‐to‐date anatomical study, particularly addressing the axial skeleton,

Late‐Onset Spondyloarthritis Presenting as Glucocorticoid‐Resistant Polymyalgia Rheumatica: A Hitherto Underappreciated Entity in Which Tumor Necrosis Factor or Interleukin ‐17 Blockade May Have a Therapeutic Role

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is an age‐related inflammatory disease with shoulder/hip girdle involvement. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reveals extracapsular/entheseal soft tissue involvement in both PMR and spondyloarthritis (SpA), with sacroiliac joint and perientheseal spinal bone marrow edema (BME) being characteristic of SpA ...

Novel application of gamification to support undergraduate anatomy: Student perceptions and performance

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy is a foundational component of various medical and paramedical disciplines. Existing research has suggested that games or game elements can improve student interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy. This project builds on previous gamification and serious game work and incorporates new anatomy‐based games into undergraduate anatomy ...

Optimizing biophysical properties of cellular niches to enhance stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicle function in musculoskeletal regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells show promise for applications in regenerative medicine, but their scalability and yield remain challenges. This review explores the approaches for biophysical modulations within cell niches on EV properties, discusses the current clinical application of EVs, and provides an outlook on the existing ...

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Histopathologic Analysis of the Morpho‐Functional Zones of the Human Acetabular Labrum

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The structural and functional adaptation of soft tissues to mechanical load controls their ability to withstand injury and influences their capacity for healing. Similar to the knee meniscus, the acetabular labrum exhibits zonal differences in mechanical load distribution, resulting in distinct regions with unique structural and functional ...

On Aspects of Intra-Articular Ligament Reconstruction

open access: yes, 2020
Intra-articular ligament injuries are common in the younger and more active part of the population. These injuries often require surgical reconstruction to restore joint stability due to lack of healing potential. The success of a ligament reconstruction depends on several elements, including biological healing of musculoskeletal tissue.
