Anatomy of spinal CSF loss in the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 575-584, April 2025.
India ink introduced into the cranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compartment of Alligator diffuses along the spinal cord and exits the spinal compartment using perineural flow, resulting in a prominent “ink cuff” forming at the base of the spinal nerve. In Alligator, the region of the ink cuff is drained by a small lymphatic vessel.

Hindlimb functional morphology and locomotor biomechanics of the small Late Triassic pseudosuchian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum (Archosauria: Gracilisuchidae)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional biomechanical model of the musculoskeletal system is used to analyse the potential locomotor functions of the small (~1 kg) Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Gracilisuchus stipanicicorum. The study finds that, potentially like the ancestral archosaur, this taxon was probably quadrupedal, plantigrade and neither strongly sprawling ...

Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Phenotypic characteristics of paroxysmal dyskinesia in 25 cats

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives Paroxysmal dyskinesia has, to date, been reported only systematically in Sphynx cats. This study aims to describe paroxysmal dyskinesia in additional breeds. Materials and Methods The medical records of cats from multiple hospitals presenting with episodes consistent with paroxysmal dyskinesia between 2020 and 2025 were retrospectively ...

Changes in the Pterygopalatine and Midpalatal Sutures After Rapid Palatal Expansion With Tooth‐Bone‐Borne (MARPE) and Tooth‐Borne (Hyrax) Appliances

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This retrospective cohort study aimed to compare the effects of tooth‐bone‐borne mini‐implant‐assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) and tooth‐borne (Hyrax) rapid palatal expansion (RPE) techniques on the pterygopalatine suture (PPS) and the opening pattern of the midpalatal suture (MPS).

The Cervical Vertebral Bone Quality Score Is a Novel Reliable Index Reflecting the Condition of Paraspinal Muscles and Predicting Loss of Cervical Lordosis After Open‐Door Laminoplasty

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1406-1417, May 2025.
There is a close correlation between C‐VBQ scores and the cervical deep extensors, deep flexors, and overall paraspinal muscles relative cross‐sectional area (RCSA) and degree of fat infiltration (DFF). The C‐VBQ score is a comprehensive parameter reflecting the quality of cervical bone and paraspinal muscles.

Development and Biomechanical Study of the Novel PRUNUS Plate‐Screw System

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
A novel trilobate reinforced anterior cervical plate‐screw system (PRUNUS) was developed. Biomechanical tests on 12 goat cadavers showed it had comparable 3D stability and fatigue performance to Atlantis, plus superior fixation/locking, effectively stabilizing the cervical spine. ABSTRACT Background Plate‐screw fixation systems have been widely applied

Robot‐Assisted Stereotactic Osteotomy Technique for Correcting Thoracolumbar Kyphotic Deformity in Ankylosing Spondylitis: A Technical Note

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
The robot‐assisted stereotactic osteotomy (RASO) technique enables quantitative wedge planning and reproducible stereotactic execution for rigid ankylosing spondylitis–related kyphotic deformity, demonstrating technical feasibility and acceptable perioperative safety.
