Redescription of the cranial morphology of Amphisbaena braestrupi and Amphisbaena laurenti (Squamata: Amphisbaenidae) from the Pleistocene of Brazil using x‐ray computed tomography

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Amphisbaenians (Squamata: Amphisbaenidae) are fossorial reptiles with highly specialized cranial morphology, yet their fossil record is frequently limited by fragmentary preservation. This study provides a detailed osteological redescription of the skulls of Amphisbaena braestrupi and Amphisbaena laurenti from the Pleistocene of Lagoa Santa ...

Risk Factors in Osteporotic Vertebral Fractures

, 2002
The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors for osteoporotic vertebral fractures in postmenopausal women. 44 postmenopausal women whose L 2-L4 T scores were £ -2.5 SD with a mean age of 66.38+ 6.47 years were included in this study.

Assessment of intraspecific skull variation in the Campanian baenid turtle Plesiobaena antiqua

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Baenids are freshwater paracryptodiran turtles with a fossil record ranging from the Early Cretaceous to the Eocene. The baenid Plesiobaena antiqua is the most common turtle in the Campanian (Late Cretaceous) Dinosaur Park Formation in Canada, but the apparent intraspecific variation remains poorly understood.

First evidence of a mandibular crest in Brasileodactylus Kellner, 1984 (Pterosauria, Pteranodontoidea, Anhangueridae), with comments on pterosaur headcrests

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Brasileodactylus araripensis Kellner, 1984, is a toothed pterosaur from the Lower Cretaceous Romualdo Formation of the Araripe Basin, Brazil. Traditionally regarded as crestless, the species has been central to debates on anhanguerid taxonomy, as most members of the clade possess well‐developed sagittal cranial or dentary crests.

Cortical bone geometry and static gravitational loads in neosauropod dinosaurs: Implications for biomechanical constraints on terrestrial gigantism

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Sauropod dinosaurs achieved unprecedented terrestrial gigantism, raising questions about the biomechanical limits of bone under extreme gravitational loads. We estimated static gravitational pressures (Pg) on appendicular cortical bone in neosauropods, including diplodocoids, brachiosaurids, and titanosaurs.

Arthroscopic Bankart Repair With a 6 o’Clock Anchor Reduces Recurrence and Improves Clinical Outcomes in Recurrent Anterior Instability

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of placing the most inferior suture anchor at the 6 o'clock position during arthroscopic Bankart repair compared with non‐6 o'clock anchor repair for recurrent anterior shoulder instability. Methods From January 2012 to December 2022, this retrospective study included patients with recurrent anterior ...
