3D Vertebrae Measurements: Assessing Vertebral Dimensions in Human Spine Mesh Models Using Local Anatomical Vertebral Axes [PDF]
Vertebral morphological measurements are important across various disciplines, including spinal biomechanics and clinical applications, pre- and post-operatively. These measurements also play a crucial role in anthropological longitudinal studies, where spinal metrics are repeatedly documented over extended periods.

Abstract Kisspeptin (KP) signaling in the brain is defined by the anatomical distribution of KP‐producing neurons, their fibers, receptors, and connectivity. Technological advances have prompted a re‐evaluation of these chemoanatomical aspects, originally studied in the early years after the discovery of KP and its receptor Kiss1r.

Anatomically and mechanically conforming patient-specific spinal fusion cages designed by full-scale topology optimization [PDF]
Cage subsidence after instrumented lumbar spinal fusion surgery remains a significant cause of treatment failure, specifically for posterior or transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion. Recent advancements in computational techniques and additive manufacturing, have enabled the development of patient-specific implants and implant optimization to specific

Abstract Patients with gastroenteropancreatic–neuroendocrine tumors (GEP‐NETs) may present skeletal fragility that might be related to multiple factors, including bone metastases, vitamin D deficiency, hormone secretion, and disease treatments. This study examines the prevalence and determinants of fragility fractures in low grading (G1‐G2) GEP‐NETs ...

Bipedalism or bipedalisms: The os coxae of StW 573
There has been a long debate about the possibility of multiple contemporaneous species of Australopithecus in both eastern and southern Africa, potentially exhibiting different forms of bipedal locomotion. Here, we describe the previously unreported morphology of the os coxae in the 3.67 Ma Australopithecus prometheus StW 573 from Sterkfontein Member 2

Anatomy of spinal CSF loss in the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)
India ink introduced into the cranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compartment of Alligator diffuses along the spinal cord and exits the spinal compartment using perineural flow, resulting in a prominent “ink cuff” forming at the base of the spinal nerve. In Alligator, the region of the ink cuff is drained by a small lymphatic vessel.
