Opioids Delay Healing of Spinal Fusion: A Rabbit Posterolateral Lumbar Fusion Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Context Opioid use is prevalent in the management of pre- and postoperative pain in patients undergoing spinal fusion. There is evidence that opioids downregulate osteoblasts in vitro, and a previous study found that morphine delays the ...

Multi‐method analysis for the three‐dimensional reconstruction of muscle fascicles from DiceCT datasets

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Over the edge: Empirical evidence for the cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection maintains that larger neonates and smaller birth canals confer a positive selective advantage until labor becomes obstructed and vaginal delivery is no longer possible, eliciting an abrupt reduction in fitness.

Minimalist Footwear Acutely Alters Running Kinematics in Runners With Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome

open access: yesArthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To assess immediate biomechanical changes in runners with medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) when transitioning from standard to minimalist running shoes. Methods Active runners diagnosed with MTSS ran on a treadmill at 10 km/h using standard and minimalist running shoes. Hip, knee, and ankle joint kinematics were captured using a 16‐infrared‐
