In this study, we used fluorochrome labels in captive leopard geckos (Eublepharis macularius) to track bone growth and intraskeletal variability from embryonic to adult growth stages. Overall, the tibia in leopard geckos is the least reliable limb bone to use for skeletochronology and the humerus, radius, and fibula preserve the longest growth record ...

The osteohistology of Orthosuchus stormbergi using synchrotron radiation microcomputed tomography
The osteohistology of Orthosuchus stormbergi is described for the first time. The primary bone tissue was lamellar bone. It had relatively thick bone walls, possibly indicating an aquatic lifestyle. Orthosuchus was a small bodied adult reaching a maximum body mass of about 1.2 kg.

The paucity of small, skeletally immature individuals representing the earliest ontogenetic stages of extinct archosaurs complicates our understanding of the growth dynamics within and between species. The opportune finding of the smallest phytosaur femora reveals slow growth, a surprising signal considering that larger phytosaurs in North America have

Novel report of an osteogenic tumor in a late Jurassic Mamenchisaurid from Thailand
Here we describe a pathology in an ulna of a Late Jurassic mamenchisaurid from Thailand. We use anatomical descriptions, CT scanning, and bone histology to identify the pathology as an osteogenic tumor. Abstract Here we report on an osseous abnormality and multiple fractures in an ulna of a subadult basal Eusauropod (Mamenchisauridae) from the Late ...

Multiple developmental origins of the avian propatagial muscle and their evolutionary implications
Through the analyses on the developmental process of forelimb muscles in the chicken and outgroup taxa, we found that the avian propatagial muscle developed from multiple cell masses derived from parts of the developing forelimb muscles, in association with the hypertrophied dermis along the cranial edge of the developing propatagium.

Lemborexant 10 mg, a dual orexin‐receptor antagonist (DORA), did not elicit respiratory depressant effects, as measured by peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) or apnea–hypopnea index (AHI), in subjects with moderate‐to‐severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Abstract Background Prone positioning improves oxygenation in adults with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and has been extensively applied in intensive care units (ICU) during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Although some complications due to the manoeuvre are well known, brachial plexus injury after prone positioning is reported as a rare ...

The long‐term anorectal outcomes of non‐surgically treated patients diagnosed with minor types of ARM seem optimal. Most of these patients experience no constipation or fecal incontinence; some experience constipation and relatively seldom fecal incontinence. Furthermore, most patients possess all the known fecal continence mechanisms.

Lipedema: Progress, Challenges, and the Road Ahead
ABSTRACT Introduction Lipedema is a chronic and progressive disease that predominantly affects women, characterized by a disproportionate increase in subcutaneous adipose tissue (AT), particularly in the lower limbs. It is associated with significant physical disability, chronic pain, thromboembolism, and psychosocial distress.
