Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...

Assessment of intraspecific skull variation in the Campanian baenid turtle Plesiobaena antiqua

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Baenids are freshwater paracryptodiran turtles with a fossil record ranging from the Early Cretaceous to the Eocene. The baenid Plesiobaena antiqua is the most common turtle in the Campanian (Late Cretaceous) Dinosaur Park Formation in Canada, but the apparent intraspecific variation remains poorly understood.

Laryngeal branches of the recurrent laryngeal nerve: A narrative review of human anatomical studies

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) provides motor innervation to all intrinsic laryngeal muscles except the cricothyroid. Detailed knowledge of its terminal branching is essential for thyroid, laryngeal, and voice surgeons. This review synthesizes existing human cadaveric and surgical descriptions of the extralaryngeal and motor branching of ...

Exosomal miR-122 derived from M2 macrophages induces osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of alcoholic osteonecrosis of the femoral head

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Alcoholic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (AIONFH) is caused by long-term heavy drinking, which leads to abnormal alcohol and lipid metabolism, resulting in femoral head tissue damage, and then pathological necrosis of femoral head tissue.

A workforce survey of Australian osteopathy: analysis of a nationally-representative sample of osteopaths from the Osteopathy Research and Innovation Network (ORION) project

BMC Health Services Research, 2018
Background Limited information is available regarding the profile and clinical practice characteristics of the osteopathy workforce in Australia. This paper reports such information by analysing data from a nationally-representative sample of Australian ...

Does the student-led osteopathy clinical learning environment prepare students for practice?

BMC Medical Education, 2022
Background For many allied health disciplines, pre-professional clinical education takes place in student-led, on-campus clinic environments. In these environments, pre-professional students undertake patient care under the supervision of qualified ...

Paranasal recesses and rostral airspace volume covary with echolocation call frequency in emballonurid bats

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The mammalian rostrum has multiple functions including serving as the upper jaw, supporting olfactory sensory structures, conditioning inspired air, and—for some mammals—transmitting sound. Several groups of bats independently evolved bony inflations on the dorsolateral surfaces of their rostra.

SpartanAnatomy.org: Evaluating a new interactive neuroradiology tool for early medical education

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy through the lens of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers medical students a strong foundation for success. However, many existing MRI learning resources lack interactivity and user‐friendliness, require payment, or include an overwhelming number of labeled structures.

Evaluating discrepancies between high‐yield neuroscience conditions in preclerkship medical education and national clinical incidence

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Medical education must balance foundational science with clinical relevance. Increasing emphasis on standardized assessments has led to prioritization of “high‐yield” conditions—those most likely to be assessed. Subsequently, educators and students often prioritize these conditions.
