Quantitative trait loci for the number of vertebrae on Sus scrofa chromosomes 1 and 7 independently influence the numbers of thoracic and lumbar vertebrae in pigs

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015
Although quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for number of thoracic-lumbar vertebrae have been identified on Sus scrofa chromosomes (SSCs) 1 and 7, the influence of these QTLs on the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae is not clear.

Whole-Genome Resequencing Reveals Loci Associated With Thoracic Vertebrae Number in Sheep

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
The number of vertebrae, especially thoracic vertebrae, is an important economic trait that may influence carcass length and meat production in animals. However, the genetic basis of vertebrae number in sheep is still poorly understood.

Sex estimation on thoracic vertebrae: A systematic review

Translational Research in Anatomy, 2023
Background: Sex determination is the crucial stage for developing a biological profile during the investigation of skeletal remains. An accurate determination of the sex of the unknown person is crucial by only a few bones or when multiple bones are ...

Genome-Wide Association Analysis Identified BMPR1A as a Novel Candidate Gene Affecting the Number of Thoracic Vertebrae in a Large White × Minzhu Intercross Pig Population

Animals, 2020
Simple Summary The number of thoracic vertebrae (NTV) and number of vertebrae (NV) varies among pig breeds with a high correlation of about 0.8. It is important to discover variants associated with the NTV by considering the effect of the NV in pig.

Rate of presence of 11 thoracic vertebrae and 6 lumbar vertebrae in asymptomatic Chinese adult volunteers

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018
Background An increasing number of studies on spinal morphology in asymptomatic Asian and Western patients have been reported. Variation in spinal anatomy among patients is considered as the cause of wrong-level surgery in up to 40% of cases. The present

Evaluation of thoracic vertebrae in healthy White New Zealand rabbit ( Oryctolagus Cuniculus ): Computed tomographic and morphometric study

Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2022
Background Computed tomography currently has a prominent role in diagnosis and evaluation of vertebral column. On the other hand, a thorough knowledge about vertebral column property in normal state is prerequisite an accurate diagnosis of different ...

Hodgkin's disease of the thoracic vertebrae [PDF]

The Spine Journal, 2013
Hodgkin's disease rarely occurs in the spine, which is usually a setting for the advanced form of the disease.To describe an unusual case of isolated, primary spinal Hodgkin's disease and to draw attention to this disease as a possible diagnosis in patients with mixed inflammatory cell infiltrate lesions located in the thoracic spine.A case report of a

VRTN is Required for the Development of Thoracic Vertebrae in Mammals [PDF]

International Journal of Biological Sciences, 2018
Vertnin (VRTN) variants are associated with thoracic vertebral number (TVN) in pigs. However, the biological function of VRTN remains poorly understood. Here we first conducted a range of experiments to demonstrate that VRTN is a responsible gene for TVN and two causative variants in the regulatory region of VRTN additively regulate TVN.

Lumbar and Thoracic Vertebrae Segmentation in CT Scans Using a 3D Multi-Object Localization and Segmentation CNN

Tomography
Radiation treatment of cancers like prostate or cervix cancer requires considering nearby bone structures like vertebrae. In this work, we present and validate a novel automated method for the 3D segmentation of individual lumbar and thoracic vertebra in
