Reliability of clinically relevant 3D foot bone angles from quantitative computed tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Surgical treatment and clinical management of foot pathology requires accurate, reliable assessment of foot deformities. Foot and ankle deformities are multi-planar and therefore difficult to quantify by standard radiographs.

Review of articular cartilage repair techniques and their application in the horse

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Articular cartilage lesions represent a significant career‐limiting problem in athletic horses. A healthy articular cartilage surface is vital for optimal joint function, and defects can result in irreversible degenerative changes. Successful treatment of cartilage lesions remains a long‐standing challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, prompting ...

The use of intra-articular aneshesia as a diagnostic tool in canine lameness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Lameness in dogs may be difficult to localize because of mild pathologic changes or inconclusive clinical findings. Intra-articular anesthesia is proposed as a diagnostic method to localize the source of lameness.

CD8+ T‐cells, CD86+ macrophages and TNF‐α signalling pathways are correlated with fetlock osteoarthritis in racehorses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background There is emerging evidence for the role of the immune system in osteoarthritis (OA) pathophysiology; however, little is known about how immune cells and the synovial transcriptome are altered in naturally occurring equine OA. Objectives To evaluate synovial fluid (SF) and synovial membrane (SM) immune cell populations and the SM ...

Arthroscopic Resection of Too-Long Anterior Process of the Calcaneus

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2016
A too-long anterior process (TLAP) of the calcaneus is an elongated anteromedial process of the calcaneus impinging the navicular or the talar head. TLAP can cause recurrent ankle sprain, peroneal muscle spasm, or persistent tarsal pain in adolescents ...

Astragalus ecomorphology in Quaternary elephantids

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The astragalus plays a fundamental role in the graviportal locomotion of proboscideans, reflecting the biomechanical constraints imposed by large body masses. This study analyses the morphological variability of the astragalus in Quaternary elephantids using linear biometry and 3D geometric morphometrics, incorporating an unpublished ...

A Quantitative Approach to Record Skeletal Manifestations of Leprosy and Its Application to St Mary Magdalen Leprosarium, Winchester

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents and tests a new method for publishing and diagnosing leprosy‐related skeletal lesions while making available the leprosy‐related demographic data and pathology for St Mary Magdalen, Winchester (MMW). This method can facilitate interstudy comparisons of leprosy prevalence and severity by improving data comparability.

Skeletal Trauma and Social Dynamics in Medieval Silves (Southern Portugal): Islamic Versus Christian Populations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Skeletal trauma provides insight into both accidental injury and interpersonal violence, reflecting everyday risk and social dynamics. This study tests the hypothesis that trauma, particularly among males, was more prevalent in the Islamic population of Silves (9th–13th centuries) than in the subsequent Christian rule (13th century onwards ...
