Traditional measurement techniques in cadaveric dissection fail to account for the changes in soft tissue length during joint movement. We have developed a new, simple method to obtain more accurate measurements of ligament length and validated using the lateral ankle ligaments group.

Geckos and anoline iguanid lizards are well‐known for their possession of adhesive toepads, which are generally regarded as being convergent structures. We show that the anatomical configuration of the foot in these two lineages differs markedly and that these differences likely relate to the contrasing ways they deploy their adhesive systems and ...

A three‐dimensional biomechanical model of the musculoskeletal system is used to analyse the potential locomotor functions of the small (~1 kg) Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum. The study finds that, potentially like the ancestral archosaur, this taxon was probably quadrupedal, plantigrade and neither strongly sprawling ...

Studies in Tasmanian spiders. Part V. (The Oonopidae) [PDF]
In the present paper three species belonging to the family Oonopidm are described. The first is the hitherto unknown male of Tasmanoonops alipes, Hickman; the second a new species belonging to the genus Oonopinus, Simon; and the third a new species ...

This study investigated how variations in the shape of the astragalus affect tarsal joint behavior, using CT scans. In artiodactyls with a double‐pulley astragalus, the calcaneus shifted plantarly during plantarflexion. This suggests the movement increases hindlimb functional length and contributes to enhanced running speed.

Objectives Gastroesophageal reflux during anaesthesia is a common event occurring in dogs with the potential to cause oesophageal injury and aspiration pneumonia. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effect of the novel metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 antagonist TT001 on gastroesophageal reflux during anaesthesia in dogs using two ...
