The fossil record stays silent: Confusions and conundrums for hominin pelvis evolution

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolution of the hominin pelvis is commonly modeled as a series of stages driven largely by the requirements of bipedal locomotion, reproduction, thermoregulation, and pelvic floor muscular support. These patterns are complicated by variation in canal dimensions in relationship with different changes in overall pelvic breadths. To quantify

The mechanism of labor in nonhuman primates: A look inside

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract While in humans, the flexed position of the fetus and its rotating course down the birth canal are well documented, in other primates the mechanism of labor is unknown. Despite the lack of comparative data, it is commonly assumed that the human obstetric mechanism is unique, and anthropologists have disputed when and why the transition to the ...

Directional Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease: Results of an International Crossover Study With Randomized, Double‐Blind Primary Endpoint

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objective Published reports on directional deep brain stimulation (DBS) have been limited to small, single‐center investigations. Therapeutic window (TW) is used to describe the range of stimulation amplitudes achieving symptom relief without side effects.

Osteology of the pectoral girdle and forelimb of Siriusgnathus niemeyerorum, a Late Triassic traversodontid cynodont from Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Traversodontids are non‐mammaliaform cynodonts, herbivorous to omnivorous, that lived during the Triassic. In the Late Triassic, some members of this group increased in body size relative to other cynodont lineages and evolved postcranial adaptations associated with locomotion.

Switching disease‐modifying therapies in patients with spinal muscular atrophy: A systematic review on effectiveness outcomes

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
With multiple disease‐modifying therapies now available, treatment switching has become an important clinical consideration in the management of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). While some switches are prompted by suboptimal clinical response, more commonly they are driven by treatment burden, convenience, or adverse events.
