A contribution to the anatomy of two rare cetacean species: The hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 7, Page 1797-1820, July 2026.
Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of

Verification of the Semiquantitative Assessment of Vertebral Deformity for Subsequent Vertebral Body Fracture Prediction and Screening for the Initiation of Osteoporosis Treatment: A Case-Control Study Using a Clinical-Based Setting

open access: yesOsteology
Background/Objectives: Semiquantitative grading of the vertebral body (SQ) is an easy screening method for vertebral body deformation. The validity of SQ as a risk factor and screening tool for incident osteoporotic fractures in the vertebral body (OF ...

Osteology Modules for the Human Structure Course

open access: yes, 2021
Background and Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic has created a need to deliver much content for the Human Structure (HS) course virtually. Because osteology is a fundamental component of human gross anatomy, the goal of this project was to create quality ...

Ontogenetic changes and sexual dimorphism in the cranium and mandible of the Atlantic walrus (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus L.)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 7, Page 1875-1903, July 2026.
Abstract Walruses have been an important subsistence and cultural resource for humans and have been exploited for millennia across their distribution. This exploitation has contributed to severe declines in several populations and local extirpations.

A Fully Bayesian Approach to Adult Skeletal Age Estimation: Multivariate Latent Trait Modeling With Markov Chain Monte Carlo Sampling

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
Ordered probit regression is used as a latent trait model, with age at death estimated from a Gompertz distribution. Combined with Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling, this approach eliminates the need for reference priors for transition ages or population parameters.

Novel application of gamification to support undergraduate anatomy: Student perceptions and performance

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 876-890, June 2026.
Abstract Anatomy is a foundational component of various medical and paramedical disciplines. Existing research has suggested that games or game elements can improve student interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy. This project builds on previous gamification and serious game work and incorporates new anatomy‐based games into undergraduate anatomy ...

Zirconia versus Titanium Implants: 1‐year Prosthetic Outcome of Screw‐Retained Single Crowns in a Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesClinical Implant Dentistry and Related Research, Volume 28, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To compare one‐year prosthetic, technical, and esthetic outcomes of screw‐retained, implant‐supported all‐ceramic single crowns placed on two‐piece zirconia (ZrO2) versus titanium implants. Materials and Methods In this randomized, prospective, multicenter clinical trial, patients received screw‐retained, implant‐supported all‐ceramic ...

Osteology and arthrology of the ankle and tarsometatarsus of anoles (Iguania: Anolidae): not convergent with geckos but divergent from the ancestral iguanian condition

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 1002-1025, June 2026.
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 ...
