The role of different physical function tests for the prediction of fracture risk in older women

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle
Background Physical function is an important risk factor for fracture. Previous studies found that different physical tests (e.g., one‐leg standing [OLS] and timed up and go [TUG]) predict fracture risk.

Developmental differences in cortical bone structure in chimpanzee and human femora reflect early locomotor independence in humans

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cortical bone structure of long bone diaphyses changes throughout growth via skeletal modeling and has important implications for bone strength and structural integrity. Ontogenetic trends in diaphyseal structure have been identified in both chimpanzees and humans but it is not yet clear how these trends compare given notable differences ...

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

Arthroscopic Images Predict Tendon Integrity After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair Using a Deep Learning Model

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To assess the feasibility of a deep learning model for predicting early structural integrity after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) using intraoperative arthroscopic images obtained after the double‐row bridging repair technique. Methods This retrospective study included patients who underwent ARCR between January 2016 and June 2024 ...

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and
