A Preliminary Protocol of Radiographic Image Processing for Quantifying the Severity of Equine Osteoarthritis in the Field: A Model of Bone Spavin

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Osteoarthritis (OA) of the tarsal joint, also known as bone spavin, is a progressive joint disease that increases in severity with age. It is a significant cause of hind limb lameness, leading to a deterioration in the quality of life of horses ...

Accelerated Evolution of Limb-Related Gene Hoxd11 in the Common Ancestor of Cetaceans and Ruminants (Cetruminantia)

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
Reduced numbers of carpal and tarsal bones (wrist and ankle joints) are extensively observed in the clade of Cetacea and Ruminantia (Cetruminantia). Homebox D11 (Hoxd11) is one of the important genes required for limb development in mammals. Mutations in

Feet injuries in children with tarsal coalitions

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction. Tarsal coalition is a foot bone malformation, characterized by bony, cartilaginous or fibrosis fusion between the tarsal bones. It clinically appears as decreased mobility of the tarsal joints. This feature can be predicting factor for feet

Robinow syndrome DVL1 variants disrupt morphogenesis and appendage formation in a Drosophila disease model

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Robinow syndrome is a rare developmental syndrome caused by variants in genes in Wnt signaling pathways. We previously showed that expression of patient variants in Dishevelled 1 (DVL1) in Drosophila and chicken models disrupts the balance of canonical and non‐canonical Wnt signaling.

Kinematic coupling between the foot and lower limb during gait [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
INTRODUCTION: Abnormal kinematic coupling between the foot and lower limb has been associated with chronic overuse injuries of the lower extremity during running. However, the normal coupling relationship between the two segments remains unclear. The

Single‐cell sequencing reveals potential novel insights into appendage‐patterning and joint‐development in a spider

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...

THE EFFECT OF HOUSING ON THE OCCURANCE OF HIND LEG WEAKNESSES IN MARKET PIGS OF THREE GENOTYPES [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Central European Agriculture, 2006
Degenerative changes of joints due to osteoarthrosis in tarsal joint, peritarsitis, tarsal bursitis and asymmetry of claws was studied on legs of 175 commercial pigs, with prolonged fattening (250 days of age) of three genotypes (landrace pigs-11 ...

Tarsal fusion for pes equinovarus deformity improves gait capacity in chronic stroke patients

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Gait impairments are common and disabling in chronic stroke patients. Pes equinovarus deformity is one of the primary motor deficits underlying reduced gait capacity after stroke. It predisposes to stance-phase instability and subsequent ankle
