Insights Into Late‐Onset Rheumatoid Arthritis (LORA): Characteristics (Clinical and Imaging), Comorbidities, and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesGeriatrics &Gerontology International, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
The main features of late‐onset rheumatoid arthritis (LORA), manifesting after age 65, are acute onset, higher disease activity, systemic involvement, and less presence of autoantibodies. Management requires individualized strategies, balancing aggressive treat‐to‐target therapy in robust patients with frailty‐focused approaches to prevent geriatric ...

Freshwater amphibians and squamates from Villeveyrac (lower Campanian; Hérault, France): palaeodiversity, palaeoenvironment and implications for the Late Cretaceous palaeobiogeography of the European herpetofauna

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The Late Cretaceous witnessed numerous transgression–regression sequences and the onset of a global cooling phase at the start of the Campanian. In the European archipelago, these environmental changes, combined with active plate tectonics, facilitated the formation of ephemeral land bridges that served as dispersal routes for a variety of ...

Comparison of Two Posterior Minimally Invasive Approaches for Odontoid Fractures: Midline Nuchal Ligament Approach vs. Paramedian Muscle‐Splitting Approach

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 74-83, January 2026.
The midline nuchal ligament approach yields clinical outcomes similar to those of the paramedian muscle‐splitting technique for odontoid fractures, while offering a more stable surgical procedure and reducing iatrogenic injury to the cervical posterior muscles and the greater occipital nerve.
