Drivers of tail evolution in squamates and their implications for the fossorial origin of snakes

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The axial skeleton serves as the primary structural support in all vertebrates and is subdivided into five distinct regions: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and caudal. Relaxation of constraints acting on the terminal end of the axial skeleton has led to remarkable variation in caudal vertebrae number across Squamata.

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

HYDATID DISEASE OF THE LUMBAR VERTEBRAE [PDF]

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1965
1. A thirty-two-year-old man has been under treatment for twelve years for primary hydatid disease of the body of the third lumbar vertebra. 2. The second lumbar vertebra became involved, as were the soft tissues over a wide area, but the spinal canal was not affected. 3. A hydatid cyst was found in the left lung. 4.

Biologic and Targeted Synthetic Disease‐Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs Do Not Arrest Bone Loss in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Long‐Term Multicenter Observational Study

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoporosis causes fractures that further increase the disease burden of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, osteoporosis treatment rates remain low. Although several studies have reported that biologic or targeted synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs (b/tsDMARDs) can prevent or improve osteoporosis in RA, our large‐scale, real ...

Discontinuing Long‐Term Denosumab in Treating Fragile Bone: Why, for Whom, and How?

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Discontinuation of denosumab (Dmab) may be necessary due to adverse events or an unfavorable long‐term risk–benefit profile. However, accumulating evidence demonstrates pronounced rebound phenomena after withdrawal, most notably a marked increase in multiple vertebral fractures, and, in some reports, elevated mortality.

DIGITAL PROCESSING FOR FLUOROSCOPY-BASED INTERVERTEBRAL KINEMATIC ANALYSIS

, 2011
Spinal degenerations can lead to segmental instability that is regarded as a major cause of back pain and is often an important factor in deciding on surgical fusion or prosthesis implant.
