Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Enhanced image forensics using dynamic authentication and recovery with CRC and chaos mapping

Discover Computing
Due to the huge advancement of various image editing software, it is very challenging to ensure the authenticity and integrity of a digital image. In this paper, an innovative technique is proposed for image forensics, i.e., the detection of tampered ...

Variable grouping patterns in primates: A test of the better competitor hypothesis in male Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intraspecific variation in social organization (IVSO) within primate populations can arise due to male mating competition. Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi) populations exhibit both single‐male and multi‐male groups, providing an opportunity to examine the relationship between male competitive ability and social organization.

Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...

Regional variability in skull sexual dimorphism: Olive baboons, blue monkeys, and vervets confirm the posterior region of the skull and the snout as opposite extremes of sex differences in Old World monkeys

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study, alongside prior work on crab‐eating macaques with O'Higgins, investigates regional variation in skull sexual dimorphism across different species of Old World monkeys. Findings reveal consistent patterns: the posterior skull regions (mandibular vertical ramus, chondrocranium and, possibly, the cranial vault) exhibit lower dimorphism,

Image Manipulation Detection and Localization Based on the Dual-Domain Convolutional Neural Networks

IEEE Access, 2018
In multimedia forensics, many efforts have been made to detect whether an image is pristine or manipulated with high enough accuracies based on specially designed features and classifiers in the past decade. However, the important task for localizing the

Human digital Meissner's corpuscles are not doubly innervated

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent studies have shown that murine and avian Meissner‐like corpuscles are innervated by two distinct mechanoreceptor afferents with different functional properties. In addition, there is evidence that one subpopulation of Meissner corpuscles of monkeys is doubly innervated by mechanoreceptors and nociceptors.

Establishment of Humanized EFNB2/B3 Murine Models for Investigating Nipah Virus Pathogenesis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nipah virus (NiV) is a zoonotic paramyxovirus classified as a WHO priority pathogen, which causes severe respiratory disease and encephalitis in humans with high mortality. Currently, no licensed vaccines or specific antiviral therapies are available.

Arthroscopic Fixation of Unstable Adolescent Knee Osteochondritis Dissecans With Structural Tibial Cancellous Bone Autograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The treatment of knee osteochondritis dissecans in young patients remains challenging. Unstable or displaced lesions and those unresponsive to conservative management require surgical treatment. Because the articular surface morphology is complex and patient‐specific, preservation and fixation of the native osteochondritis dissecans fragment ...
