A second species of non‐crocodyliform crocodylomorph from the Late Triassic fissure deposits of southwestern UK: Implications for locomotory ecological diversity in Saltoposuchidae

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

Bone loss and aggravated autoimmune arthritis in HLA-DRβ1-bearing humanized mice following oral challenge with Porphyromonas gingivalis [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: The linkage between periodontal disease and rheumatoid arthritis is well established. Commonalities among the two are that both are chronic inflammatory diseases characterized by bone loss, an association with the shared epitope ...

Quantitative muscle architecture in large carnivorous marsupials (Marsupialia: Dasyuridae) and links to substrate use and prey processing

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dasyurid species Sarcophilus harrisii, Dasyurus maculatus, and Dasyurus viverrinus, occupying diverse ecological niches and forming a guild structure in Tasmania, provide a basis for examining the roles of various forelimb muscle groups in prey capture and locomotion.

Finite element model creation and stability considerations of complex biological articulation : the human wrist joint [PDF]

, 2010
The finite element method has been used with considerable success to simulate the behaviour of various joints such as the hip, knee and shoulder. It has had less impact on more complicated joints such as the wrist and the ankle.

Factor Analysis of Metacarpal Bones

Journal of the Anthropological Society of Nippon, 1980
Measurement on metacarpal roentgenograms of male adult Japanese (n=62) and direct measurements on metacarpal bones (n=33) were studied by the factor analysis. Analysis of measurements on roentgenograms and statures indicated the factorial independencies of the length, breadth, medullary diameter and ratio of the second metacarpal length to the fourth ...

autoscoRA: Deep Learning to Automate Sharp/van der Heijde Scoring of Radiographic Damage in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Regular imaging by conventional radiography to assess for joint damage is a cornerstone in the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Scoring systems to quantify such damage, such as the widely used Sharp/van der Heijde (SvdH) score, are limited by the requirement of time and experienced staff as well as intra‐ and inter‐rater variability ...

Recurrent Solitary Osteochondroma of the Metacarpal: A Case Report

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2013
Osteochondromas are the most common benign bone tumours and account for 20 to 50% of benign bone tumours and 10 to 15% of all bone tumours. They usually occur in long bones; 40% occur around the knee joint, but in the hand they are uncommon and usually ...

Deformation indicators of metacarpal bones fracture fixation

Mechanics and Advanced Technologies, 2019
Functional reliability of fixative-bone means was studied for various types of metacarpal fractures depending on the type of fixator and its location. The stiffness characteristics of fracture fixation systems with titanium miniplates were studied, an ...

Increased sclerostin associated with stress fracture of the third metacarpal bone in the Thoroughbred Racehorse [PDF]

, 2018
Objectives: The exact aetiopathogenesis of microdamage induced long bone fractures remains unknown. These fractures are likely the result of inadequate bone remodeling in response to damage.

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

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
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 ...
