Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots
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.

Fascicle measurement methods do result in lengths that are significantly different
A recent comparison of the most prevalent methods for measuring fascicles, in situ measurement versus chemical digestion, concluded that the measurements are indistinguishable based on data from different conspecific individuals. However, our study of contralateral muscles of the same individuals shows that the methods clearly result in statistically ...

Abstract The globus pallidus (GP), a subcortical structure within the basal ganglia, plays a crucial role in modulating cortico‐subcortical circuits related to motor control and associative/limbic functions. However, the cytoarchitectonic and neurochemical organization of this structure remains poorly characterized in naturally existing wild‐type ...

Purpose To evaluate the cost‐effectiveness of using allograft and xenograft augmentation at the time of primary rotator cuff repair (RCR) using a decision tree analysis. Methods An expected‐value decision tree analysis was developed to compare the costs and outcomes of primary RCR for large tears performed with or without graft augmentation.

Purpose To evaluate the clinical outcomes and survivorship of hip arthroscopy with simultaneous labral and ligamentum teres (LT) reconstruction for the treatment of irreparable labral and LT tears, with a minimum follow‐up of 2 years. Methods Prospectively collected data were retrospectively reviewed for patients who underwent combined arthroscopic ...

Immersive virtual reality as a teaching tool in neuroanatomy: A scoping review
Abstract Basic core courses in various undergraduate programs, such as neuroanatomy, pose a challenge for students due to the large volume and complexity of the content. In this context, educational technologies such as immersive virtual reality (IVR), which allow students to actively interact with learning materials, offer a complementary pedagogical ...

The impact of family interview on the relationship between medical students and their silent mentor
Abstract The gross anatomy laboratory course often triggers significant negative emotions in medical students during dissection. While various pedagogical interventions aim to alleviate psychological burden, the fundamental question of how students' perceptions of donors evolve throughout the course remains underexplored.

Abstract This technical note describes a practical, anatomy‐based medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction technique emphasizing individualized, dynamic graft tensioning and independent adjustment of patellar graft arms. By prioritizing femoral fixation first, guided by precise, dynamic anatomical landmarks and arthroscopic verification, the graft

Transtibial Technique for Medial Meniscus Root Repair and Centralization
Abstract Recent evidence suggests that meniscotibial ligament disruption with progressive extrusion often precedes medial meniscus posterior root tears, clarifying the limited efficacy of isolated root repair. Accordingly, combined root repair and centralization yield more favorable biomechanical restoration and clinical outcomes.
