Review of the tetrapod skull–neck boundary: implications for the evolution of the atlas–axis complex

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review describes variation in modern and fossil occiput–atlas–axis complex anatomy of total group Tetrapoda with the aim of documenting the range of structural variation throughout their evolutionary history to establish grounds for comparison of the complex between tetrapod clades.

Automatic Lumbar Vertebrae Segmentation in Fluoroscopic Images via Optimised Concurrent Hough Transform

open access: yes, 2001
Low back pain is a very common problem in the industrialised countries and its associated cost is enormous. Diagnosis of the underlying causes can be extremely difficult. Many studies have focused on mechanical disorders of the spine.

Biallelic FGF4 Variants Linked to Thoracic Dystrophy and Respiratory Insufficiency

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
We report three people from two unrelated families with a clinical diagnosis of thoracic dystrophy characterized by short or missing ribs, narrow chest, and respiratory insufficiency. Affected people each have rare, biallelic, predicted deleterious missense substitutions in FGF4, a gene known to be essential for the formation of the thoracic skeleton ...

Humeroradial Synostosis: An Updated Classification and Differential Diagnosis Based on Genetic Aetiology

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
The proposed updated classification of humeroradial synostosis is based on the molecular pathways of the genes involved: (1) chondrogenesis and osteogenesis; (2) limb development and patterning; (3) genome regulation. Thus, pathologies belonging to the same molecular type may have overlapping clinical phenotypes, helping to structure the diagnostic ...

Engineering Intervertebral Disc Regeneration: Biomaterials, Cell Sources and Animal Models

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This review highlights the current tissue engineering approaches utilising biomaterials, animal models and cell sources for intervertebral disc regeneration and discusses future opportunities. ABSTRACT Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is an age‐related problem triggering chronic spinal issues, such as low back pain and IVD herniation.
