A Resistive Soft Robotic Exosuit for Dynamic Body Loading in Hypogravity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The resistive hypogravity exosuit is a lightweight wearable robotic exosuit that uses pneumatic artificial muscles to restore Earth‐like metabolic and muscular demands during locomotion in low gravity. Tested on healthy subjects in Earth and simulated Moon gravity, the suit restores energy expenditure and muscle activation without altering gait ...

Evidence of trauma in a ca. 1-million-year-old patella of Homo antecessor, Gran Dolina-Atapuerca (Spain) [PDF]
, 2016 We present the palaeopathological study of a left patella (ATD6-56) belonging to the Early Pleistocene species Homo antecessor (Atapuerca-Gran Dolina, Spain). The abnormal morphology observed in the inferior margin of the patella is an osseous overgrowth

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a rare genetic disease inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It occurs in 1 in 100,000 people globally and is caused by several types of mutations of the TRPS1 gene. Since the first human patient was reported in 1966, typical and atypical pathologies, disease courses, and treatment case ...
