Etymology and entomology: The semiotics and ethics of multispecies gene nomenclatures

Journal of Linguistic Anthropology, Volume 36, Issue 2, August 2026.
Abstract This article examines controversies surrounding gene names that are perceived as humorous in the context of fruit flies but are considered rude in the clinical context of human medicine. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in insect laboratories, interviews with entomologists and geneticists, and an analysis of scientific and clinical ...

Imaging of early distal tarsal osteoarthritis in Icelandic horses [Elektronisk resurs]

, 2014
The early stages of osteoarthritis (OA) are characterised by focal morphological changes that may slowly progress if joint repair fails. Validated, non-invasive and affordable methods to diagnose the early stage of OA in horses are lacking.

Trabecular bone ontogeny of the human talus

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 7, Page 1837-1874, July 2026.
Abstract Studies of trabecular ontogeny may provide insight into the factors that drive healthy bone development. There is a growing understanding of how the juvenile skeleton responds to these influences; however, gaps in our knowledge remain. This study aims to identify ontogenetic trabecular patterns and regional changes during development within ...

Needle bevel orientation does not affect diffusion of contrast medium during perineural injection of the lateral palmar/plantar nerve and lateral palmar metacarpal/plantar metatarsal nerves

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 7, Page e456-e463, July 2026.
Summary Background Perineural anaesthesia is used to localise pain in horses presenting with lameness. Diffusion of local anaesthetics during perineural analgesia complicates clinical interpretation. Needle bevel orientation has been shown to affect drug diffusion in humans.

OSTEOARTHRITIS IN SPORT HORSES: COMPARISON OF RADIOGRAPHIC FINDINGS IN DISTAL LIMB AND TARSAL REGIONS

, 2018
Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the main reasons for early retirement of sport horses and despite new technologies, radiographic examination is still the most commonly used method of diagnosis.

Lateromedial and oblique radiographs detect most fetlock pathologies as effectively as a full series in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 4, Page 934-945, July 2026.
Abstract Background Radiographic protocols for the metacarpo‐/tarsophalangeal joint during pre‐purchase examinations (PPE) vary internationally, but their impact on pathology detection remains unclear. Optimising imaging protocols is essential to balance diagnostic accuracy with workflow efficiency and radiation exposure.

Prevalence of hip and elbow dysplasia in young adult dogs in Sweden

Veterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 12, Page e560-e573, 13–27 June 2026.
Abstract Background Hip and elbow dysplasia (HD and ED) are common developmental orthopaedic disorders in dogs. The study objectives were to report population‐based estimates of HD and ED prevalence at screening in young adult dogs of different breeds and to evaluate the phenotypic association between HD and ED.

Polygenic Prediction of Equestrian Sport Discipline Among Horses Bred for Jumping and Dressage

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Horses bred for different equestrian sports vary in physical, physiological and behavioural requirements. Characterising genetic markers associated with discipline provides an opportunity to improve identification of horses best suited to either jumping or dressage.

Estimation and rapid identification of later stages during embryonic development of the oviparous lizard Sceloporus aeneus (Squamata: Phrynosomatidae)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 6, Page 1583-1598, June 2026.
Abstract Stages of embryonic development for reptiles have been presented in tables that may include all or part of embryonic development. When oviposition occurs in some lizards, embryos are already in the later stages of development; likewise, the size of the eggs increases as incubation time progresses.

Novel application of gamification to support undergraduate anatomy: Student perceptions and performance

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 876-890, June 2026.
Abstract Anatomy is a foundational component of various medical and paramedical disciplines. Existing research has suggested that games or game elements can improve student interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy. This project builds on previous gamification and serious game work and incorporates new anatomy‐based games into undergraduate anatomy ...
