Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth II: Muscle architectural properties in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 737-758, October 2026.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and greater suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and have muscle architectural properties consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the shoulder and elbow joints, and grip on the support as indicated by their myology. Abstract Two‐toed sloths

Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 714-736, October 2026.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 924-949, October 2026.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Microanatomical features of bovids long bones: What are the effects of mass and habitat?

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 899-923, October 2026.
This study provides the first qualitative and quantitative exploration of inter‐bones and interspecific variations in the microanatomy of long bones in bovids in response to significant changes in body mass and habitat. Abstract Bovids are a valuable group for studying limb long bone adaptations due to differences in size and the environment that the ...

Clinically relevant intra‐articular corticosteroid doses impair equine osteoclast function in vitro

open access: yesVeterinary Surgery, Volume 55, Issue 7, Page 1223-1236, October 2026.
Abstract Objective To assess the effects of clinically relevant doses of commonly employed intra‐articular corticosteroids—specifically, triamcinolone acetonide (TCA), methylprednisolone acetate (MPA), and combination of betamethasone acetate and betamethasone sodium phosphate (BM)—on equine osteoclasts.
