Comparative diagnostic challenges in two horses with skin fragility disorders

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Hereditary equine regional dermal asthenia (HERDA) is an autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder of horses caused by a missense mutation (c.115G>A) in the peptidyl‐prolyl cis–trans isomerase B (PPIB) gene, resulting in defective collagen organisation.

Therapeutic preferences and perceived outcomes for equine subchondral lucencies: An international survey

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Subchondral lucencies (SCLs), also referred to as subchondral cystic lesions or osseous cyst‐like lesions, are associated with lameness and reduced performance in horses. Management options are diverse, evidence is heterogeneous and direct comparisons are limited; current therapeutic preferences are poorly described.

Treatment approaches for equine subchondral lucencies: Clinical considerations and therapeutic decision‐making

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Subchondral lucencies, also referred to as subchondral cystic lesions or osseous cyst‐like lesions, are radiographically identifiable defects of subchondral bone that remain an important cause of lameness and reduced athletic performance in horses.

How do forelimb long bones adapt in rhinoceroses? An in‐depth examination of their microanatomy

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Here, we study the bone structure in the forelimb long bones of the five extant species of rhinoceroses. By combining traditional description of virtual sections made on the bones (A) with in‐depth cartographies of the variation of bone compactness and anisotropy (B), we show how bone tissue can adapt to extreme forces and constraints in the second ...

The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

Cumulative effects of lifelong systemic excess growth hormone on postcranial skeletal morphology in adult mice

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Our μCT‐based pilot study reveals size and shape disparity in the adult postcranial skeleton of growth‐hormone model (bGH) mice relative to wild‐type mice. bGH mice have larger and more sexually dimorphic bones, with a systemic radiodensity increase in bony sesamoids and associated, but typically uncalcified, soft tissues.
