Hand to mouth in a Neandertal : right-handedness in regourdou 1 [PDF]
, 2012 We describe and analyze a Neandertal postcranial skeleton and dentition, which together show unambiguous signs of right-handedness. Asymmetries between the left and right upper arm in Regourdou 1 were identified nearly 20 years ago, then confirmed by ...

Proximal humerus locking plate fixation for proximal humerus fractures [PDF]
International Journal of Orthopaedics Sciences, 2016 Objective: To evaluate functional outcome and complications of open reduction and internal fixation with proximal humeral internal locking system (PHILOS) plate for proximal Humerus fractures. Methods: We reviewed 20 patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation with PHILOS plate from June 2012 to June 2013.
