Biomechanical effects of equine training aids: A systematic review

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Equine training aids, including auxiliary reins such as draw reins, Pessoa‐type systems and side reins, are widely used during lungeing and ridden exercise to improve posture, back engagement and movement quality. Despite their extensive practical application, the biomechanical effects of these devices remain poorly defined and are often ...

Neurophysiological Methods in Accounting and Finance

open access: yesJournal of International Financial Management &Accounting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent advances in neuroscience have made neurophysiological methods increasingly accessible, creating a timely opportunity to rethink how accounting and financial decisions are studied. Yet accounting and finance research has been slow to exploit its full potential.

An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

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.

From sagittal to sprawled: Clavicular co‐option and the evolution of forelimb mechanics in talpines

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Forelimb posture in Eulipotyphla divides into sagittal and sprawled groups with distinct scapular and clavicular orientations. First true rib strength scales with body mass, reflecting vertical ground reaction forces, whereas clavicular strength reflects differences in medially directed forces on the pectoral girdle, especially pronounced in highly ...
