Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

Female Patients Exhibit a Narrower Glenoid Rim and Lower Bone Density in the Anteroinferior Quadrant Compared With Male Patients

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate sex‐based differences in glenoid rim morphology and bone density relevant to arthroscopic Bankart repair. Methods This retrospective study assessed differences in glenoid rim morphology between sexes in patients with shoulder instability and uninjured control subjects who underwent a magnetic resonance ...

Correlation of the Neck Circumference with Blood Pressure

Journal of College of Medical Sciences-Nepal, 2018
Background: The growing epidemic of hypertension owing to physical inactivity and dietary modification is a global burden. The obesity which acts as a pre-disposing factor for blood pressure can be measured with neck circumference (NC) as well. Thus, the aim of this study is to find out the relation between the components of blood pressure and the neck

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Open and Arthroscopic Acetabular Labral Reconstructions Are Associated With Improvements in Hip Patient‐Reported Outcome Measures at 1 Year, but Only an Open Approach Is Associated With Significant Reductions in Pain

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare initial outcomes for open versus arthroscopic acetabular labral reconstruction (ALR) using fresh meniscus allograft transplantation. Methods With informed consent, patients scheduled to undergo ALR were enrolled into a registry.

Dual‐Camera Arthroscopic Bone Block Cerclage Technique Using a Tricortical Iliac Crest Autograft for Glenoid Reconstruction in Patients With Anterior Shoulder Instability

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Arthroscopic‐assisted grafting of the anterior glenoid in instability surgery offers lower morbidity and fewer complications than open techniques but faces challenges in operative field visualization. The 1.9 mm NanoScope (Arthrex, Naples, FL) enables simultaneous arthroscopic views from opposing angles, providing anterior glenoid ...

Neck Circumference and Mallampati Classification

, 2017
Difficult and failed intubations contribute to morbidly and mortality in anesthesia practice. Mallampati is one of the most widely used airway assessments but research shows it is highly variable in its ability to predict difficult intubation. Neck circumference is an objective assessment not commonly used, but has been shown to assess the degree of ...

Investigation on tunnel stability considering pipe‐roof support with transparent soil technology

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study integrates transparent soil technology, 3D reconstruction and numerical simulation to captures the full‐field deformation of shield tunnel instability. Results demonstrate that pipe‐roof support enhances stability via the “soil‐arching barrier effect,” effectively restraining failure wedge development by extending stress transfer paths ...

Jaw‐specific stem cell dynamics are associated with distinct enamel architecture in mouse incisors

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The continuously growing mouse incisor serves as a model for stem cell‐driven tooth renewal. Although mice possess maxillary and mandibular incisors, most studies have focused on the mandible. Potential differences in structure and renewal between these serially homologous organs remain insufficiently characterized.
