Using microtomographic scans of modern human arm and forearm bones and anterior dentition, we quantified cortical bone and dentine volumes and their topographic distribution. Our results revealed a co‐variation between cortical bone and dentine volumes, suggesting shared factors influencing their postnatal development.

The Contribution of the Distal Limbs to Height and Proportions in Different Socioeconomic Groups
ABSTRACT Background The distal limbs (radius/ulna and tibia/fibula) are known to exhibit greater plasticity to external factors than the proximal limbs. However, the specific ways in which various factors influence the distal limbs, and the methods to assess the degree of their impact, remain insufficiently explored. Aim This study aimed to investigate

Normotensive trauma patients with renal injuries: Hidden candidates for massive transfusion
Abstract Background Early identification of trauma patients requiring massive transfusion (MT) is crucial for improving outcomes. However, current scoring systems may overlook patients with initially stable vital signs who later require MT. This study aimed to identify anatomic risk factors for MT in relatively stable trauma patients upon emergency ...

Grip Force Modulation on Median Nerve Morphology Changes
ABSTRACT Compression on the median nerve can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), and median nerve indicators measured from ultrasound images can be used for CTS diagnosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between grip force modulation and dynamic morphological changes of the median nerve. We used a digital grip dynamometer to
