Does salinity make a difference—Kidney anatomy of Saimaa (Pusa saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract As habitat salinity markedly differs between the endangered, freshwater‐dwelling Saimaa ringed seal (Pusa saimensis Nordquist, 1899) and the brackish water‐inhabiting Baltic ringed seal (Pusa hispida botnica Gmelin, 1788), we investigated whether this difference has resulted in morphological changes to their kidneys.

Patterns of spinal motion, kinematic spaces and the land‐to‐sea transition in carnivorans

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Using 3D reconstructions, we quantify intervertebral joint mobility to investigate how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebral regions evolved distinct kinematic roles in pinnipeds. The findings reveal lineage‐specific adaptations for swimming and highlight the functional significance of vertebral joint flexibility in ecological transitions.

Excessive Femoral Anteversion Associated With Worse Clinical Outcomes Following Hip Arthroscopic Surgery and Higher Prevalence of Anteroinferior Labral Tears in Patients With Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare intraoperative findings associated with instability and clinical outcomes after hip arthroscopic femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) surgery in patients with normal anteversion (NA) and excessive femoral anteversion (EA). Methods Inclusion criteria were FAIS cases who underwent primary arthroscopic management from January ...

Romosozumab and Denosumab Combination Therapy After Denosumab in Postmenopausal Osteoporosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Transition from long‐term denosumab (Dmab) to parathyroid hormone‐analogs or romosozumab (Romo) might expose patients to the risk of the so‐called rebound phenomenon. Adding Romo to Dmab might represent an option in patients experiencing a fracture while on Dmab.

Functional Impact of Structural Damage in Psoriatic Arthritis: Insights from a Prospective Cohort Study

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective To examine the association between radiographic structural damage and physical function (PF) in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Methods Data were analyzed from a large longitudinal PsA cohort. PF was measured using the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ, 0‐3) and Short Form‐36 PF subscale (SF‐36, 0‐100); radiographic joint damage using modified ...

ANALYSIS OF CONSUMER PREFERENCES FOR PACKAGE SIZES FOR BEEF AND PORK PRODUCTS AS RELATED TO THEIR DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS [PDF]

Delaware consumers were surveyed to obtain information about package size preferences for fresh beef and pork products. A chi-square and gamma analysis was made and age was found to be significant and positively correlated to the size of package chosen ...

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

Anatomical 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 ...
