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 ...

Historical birth records from 1896 to 1944 from the Basel maternity hospital, Switzerland, reveal significant obstetric selection pressures

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality have declined dramatically during the last century. Historical data are therefore important sources to study the evolutionary selection pressures related to childbirth and how they have fluctuated over time.

Scaling and ecomorphology of lagomorph body shape and appendicular skeleton

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Body shape is one of the most prominent features of phenotypic variation. Yet, mammalian body shapes are poorly quantified and the underlying components contributing to its diversity and its relationship to other skeletal components are rarely tested.

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

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.

Impact of Dual Interleukin‐17A and Interleukin‐17F Inhibition With Bimekizumab on Inflammatory and Structural Lesions in Axial Spondyloarthritis: Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Radiographic Outcomes From Two Phase 3 Studies and Their Open‐Label Extension

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Graphical Abstract Objective To evaluate the impact of bimekizumab, a dual interleukin (IL)‐17A and IL‐17F inhibitor, on sacroiliac joints (SIJ) and spine inflammation/structural damage in axSpA using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans/radiographs from the phase 3 studies BE MOBILE 1 (non‐radiographic axSpA [nr‐axSpA]) and 2 (radiographic axSpA [r ...

Early Diagnosis of Axial Spondyloarthritis Is Associated With Less Long‐Term Spinal Structural Damage: A Longitudinal Analysis of the Swiss Clinical Quality Management in Rheumatic Diseases Registry

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society recently defined early axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) as a duration of two years or less of axial symptoms. Previous studies have shown no significant difference in short‐term outcomes between patients with early and established axSpA treated with biologic/targeted synthetic disease ...
