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

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
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.

Endoscopic‐Assisted Posterior Atlantoaxial Fusion: Technical Innovation and Clinical Experience

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Endoscopic‐assisted posterior atlantoaxial lateral mass fusion is introduced as a novel minimally invasive technique for treating atlantoaxial instability. The approach enables direct visualization, precise fixation, and effective bone fusion while minimizing muscle dissection, blood loss, and postoperative pain, achieving rapid neurological and ...

Population level data on aging in periodontal and peri‐implant health—Aging is not a contraindication for periodontal or peri‐implant therapy

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Global population aging is leading to a greater retention of natural teeth into later life and an increasing prevalence of dental implant therapy. Although advanced age has traditionally been regarded as a risk factor for compromised outcomes, population level evidence remains lacking.

Surgical Resection of Lumbar Spine Osteoblastoma With Secondary Aneurysmal Bone Cysts Through a Combined Transpsoas and Posterior Approach: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aggressive lumbar osteoblastoma with secondary aneurysmal bone cysts is rare and may involve both posterior elements and vertebral bodies. When extensive multilevel involvement is present, a combined posterior and transpsoas approach can facilitate complete tumor resection, restore spinal stability, and achieve favorable neurological and ...

Tissue‐Level Neck Response in Rotary‐Wing Aircrew With Head‐Supported Mass Assessed With Finite Element Model

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 5, May 2026.
Rotary‐wing aircrew have reported the occurrence of neck pain, potentially associated with rapid scanning tasks and head‐supported mass (HSM). The aim of this study is to gain additional insight into the interaction of HSM and neck positions with the innervated tissues in the neck.

Teriparatide in Two Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVB

JIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IV is a multisystem lysosomal storage disease characterized by severe skeletal dysplasia resulting from impaired degradation of the glycosaminoglycans keratan sulfate and chondroitin‐6‐sulfate. The condition is classified into Types A and B based on the underlying enzyme deficiency.

Features and clinical significance of the ossification centres in the odontoid process based on micro-computed tomography

Folia Morphologica, 2020
BACKGROUND: Microscopic structures of the ossification centres of the odontoid process were studied from the micro-computed tomography (CT) images of the axis, and the potential influence of the ossification centres with different microscopic structures ...

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 3, Page 674-699, March 2026.
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

Type III odontoid fractures: A subgroup analysis of complex, high-energy fractures treated with external immobilization

Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2018
Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Objective: Type III odontoid fractures are classically treated nonoperatively, yet, the current literature on Type III odontoid fractures includes fractures of multiple etiologies and fracture morphologies.
