Pre‐ and Post‐Interventional Hemodynamic Characterization of the Femoropopliteal Artery Using Vector Flow Imaging in Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 7, Page 1397-1407, July 2026.
Objectives The femoropopliteal (FP) artery is the most frequently revascularized segment in peripheral artery disease (PAD), followed by the iliac segment. Wall shear stress (WSS) is a key local factor implicated in both atherosclerotic plaque formation and restenosis after angioplasty.

Architecture of lower leg muscles in children: Reference curves and potential mechanisms of growth

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 54-67, July 2026.
Muscle architecture (physiological cross‐sectional area, fascicle lengths and pennation angle) was measured from multimodal MRI scans of the lower legs of 197 children aged ≤15 years. We showed that lower leg muscle volumes (product of PCSA and fascicle length) increase primarily through increases in PCSA (transverse growth) rather than increases in ...

A Nano‐Interception Strategy for Chronic Heart Failure: Prussian Blue Nanoparticles Disrupt Fibroblast‐Immune Communication via CCL2 Sequestration

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 31, 2 June 2026.
A nano‐interception strategy disrupts pathogenic fibroblast–macrophage crosstalk in chronic heart failure. Scalable Prussian blue nanoparticles selectively sequester CCL2 via ultrahigh‐affinity binding, preventing CCR2+ macrophage recruitment and breaking a key fibro‐inflammatory circuit. This approach demonstrates robust efficacy in murine and porcine

Histovariability and fossil diagenesis of Pissarrachampsa (Pseudosuchia, Notosuchia, Baurusuchidae) from the Upper Cretaceous of Southeast Brazil

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 6, Page 1451-1463, June 2026.
Abstract Notosuchians were key components of western Gondwanan Cretaceous ecosystems in terrestrial predator niches and exhibited remarkable taxonomic and ecological diversity. Previous research has explored their physiology, metabolism, and histology, revealing varied growth patterns and life history strategies.

Smaller Lateral‐to‐Medial Tibial Plateau Ratios Are Strongly Correlative With Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tears and Reconstruction Failures

Arthroscopy, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1030-1038, June 2026.
Purpose To compare the anterior–posterior distance ratio of the lateral‐to‐medial tibial plateau (LTP/MTP) among 3 patient groups: those with intact anterior cruciate ligaments (ACLi), primary ACL tears (ACLp), and failed ACL reconstructions (ACLf).

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

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 876-890, June 2026.
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 ...

Clinical Outcomes of Custom Foot Orthoses in Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Progressive collapsing foot deformity (PCFD) is a painful and function‐limiting condition most commonly affecting middle‐aged and older adults. Although custom foot orthoses (CFOs) are routinely prescribed as a conservative intervention, evidence from large clinical cohorts remains limited.

The Effect of Limited Ankle Dorsiflexion During Emergency Stop—Jump Movements on Lower Limb Biomechanics

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective The stop‐jump task is a key movement in sports such as basketball and volleyball, with landing biomechanics closely linked to injury risk. Restricted ankle dorsiflexion (DF) alters lower‐extremity mechanics and increases the risk of lower‐limb joint injuries; however, its effects on the full stop‐jump cycle remain unclear. This study

A Novel Surgical Approach to Induce an Ankle Joint Contracture in Rats

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Our primary aim was to establish a novel surgical immobilization approach to induce a persistent ankle plantar‐flexion contracture in the Wistar rat. A stainless steel suture was placed in experimental animals (n = 14) and pulled taut between the calcaneal bone and the knee joint, restricting dorsal‐flexion while still allowing for limited ...

Sensory Morphology of Geodorcus helmsi (Coleoptera: Lucanidae) and its Relevance to the Conservation of New Zealand Stag Beetles

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Insects use sensilla to detect chemical and physical stimuli, mediating behaviours such as mate finding, foraging and mechanosensory responses. The distribution and density of sensilla can be examined using scanning electron microscopy. Investigating these structures can help elucidate rarely observed behaviours (e.g. mate finding and foraging).
