Objectives Prospective studies demonstrated that essential tremor is a risk factor for Parkinson's disease. Identifying clinical markers for conversion from essential tremor to essential tremor‐Parkinson's disease would be of considerable value. Rest tremor can be present in advanced essential tremor and may be a harbinger of conversion. We examined (1)

Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?
Abstract Sabertoothed mammalian predators, all now extinct, were almost exclusively feloid carnivorans (Eutheria, Placentalia): here a couple of extinct metatherian predators are considered in comparison with the placental sabertooths. Thylacosmilus (the “marsupial sabertooth”) and Thylacoleo (the “marsupial lion”) were both relatively large (puma ...

Whole‐bone shape of hominoid manual proximal phalanges
Abstract Functional morphologists have long noted that skeletal adaptations in primate phalanges reflect locomotor behavior. While most studies have successfully used two‐dimensional measurements to quantify general features of phalanx shape, a whole‐bone three‐dimensional analysis may better capture more subtle aspects of phalanx morphology that have ...

Purpose: The scapholunate ligament, linking the scaphoid and lunate bones, is crucial for wrist stability and motion. An injury to this ligament disrupts wrist biomechanics, leading to compromised functionality and a higher risk of osteoarthritis ...

Abstract Bats possess the remarkable ability to fly, and with this, distinctive wing bone properties. We investigated the structural, mechanical, and compositional properties of the humerus, radius, metacarpals, and proximal and middle phalanges of Carollia perspicillata, an approximately 15 g fruit‐eating bat native to the Neotropics.
