Unfused transverse foramen of the atlas vertebra in the Neandertal lineage fossils
Abstract In anatomically modern humans, the atlas can display an unfused transverse foramen (UTF) but currently the presence of UTF in the Neandertal lineage is uncertain due to a scarcity of prevalence studies and no exhaustive record of its presence throughout the entire hominin fossil record.

Abstract Softshell turtles (Pan‐Trionychidae) are an early branching clade of hidden‐necked turtles (Cryptodira) with a rich fossil record extending back to the Early Cretaceous. The evolutionary history of softshell turtles is still unresolved because of their conservative morphology combined with high levels of polymorphism related to morphological ...

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

ABSTRACT Recent methodological development in phylogenetic inference has focused predominantly on molecular data. However, renewed interest in other data types, particularly morphological data, has followed from the increased recognition of the power of total evidence and tip‐dating approaches, including fossil data, for inference of time‐scaled trees ...

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to identify branches of the trigeminal and facial nerves (FNs) relevant to surgical incisions and injections and the scalp block techniques in the frontotemporal region, and to determine their relationships with superficial vascular structures and bony landmarks.

Otogenic Sigmoid Sinus Thrombosis Complicated by Cerebellar Abscess and Hydrocephalus: A Case Report
ABSTRACT A 44‐year‐old man developed otogenic sigmoid sinus thrombosis with cerebellar abscess, hydrocephalus, and recurrent posterior fossa infection. Staged neurosurgical drainage and canal‐wall‐down mastoidectomy achieved source control. Cultures were negative. Anticoagulant exposure was perioperative/early postoperative.

The Hemodynamic Trap: Fetal‐Type Posterior Cerebral Artery and Occult PICA Aneurysms
Hemodynamic and structural asymmetry of the vertebrobasilar system. (A) Axial Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) demonstrating a right‐sided fetal‐type posterior cerebral artery (fPCA). The right PCA arises directly from the internal carotid artery (red circle), with an absent P1 segment. (B) Coronal MIP reveals striking inflow asymmetry, characterized

A whole‐body map of sEVs from a single pig, including 133 samples spanning 10 systems, revealed striking tissue‐specific heterogeneity in yield. Importantly, a conserved core cargo set comprising candidate sEV markers (ACTG1, CFL1, and ANXA2), RNA‐binding proteins, the let‐7 miRNA family, and ferritin genes was defined from 105,409 (88.6% full‐length ...
