Cranial anatomy of a Late Cretaceous aspidorhynchid fish (Neopterygii: Aspidorhynchiformes) from Alberta, Canada

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Belonostomus longirostrisis was named for an isolated jaw fragment from freshwater Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) sediments of the Dinosaur Park Formation of Alberta, Canada. Following the description of the Albertan species, numerous isolated cranial and postcranial elements have been collected from the Dinosaur Park Formation and assigned to B.

Continuous Sewing Machine‐Like Suture Provides Higher Failure and Yield Load Compared to Traditional Techniques for Meniscal Root Repair in a Biomechanical Porcine Model

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the biomechanical performance of the sewing machine‐like suture (SMS) technique against three established techniques (two cinch‐loop (TCL), modified Mason‐Allen (MMA), and double Mason‐Allen (DMA)) for transtibial pull‐out repair of posterior medial meniscal root tear (PMMRT) in a porcine model.

Accurate Measurement in All‐inside Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Technical Note

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract With the increasing rate of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (PCLr) and growing adoption of the all‐inside PCLr, the existing literature lacks an optimal surgical protocol for this technique. It is well recognized that variations in knee size and intraoperative positioning pose challenges in determining the key parameter—the length ...

An anachronistic Clarkforkian mammal fauna from the Paleocene Fort Union Formation (Great Divide Basin, Wyoming, USA)

Geologica Acta, 2009
The Clarkforkian (latest Paleocene) North American Land Mammal Age (NALMA) remains a relatively poorly sampled biostratigraphic interval at the close of the Paleocene epoch that is best known from the Bighorn Basin of northwestern Wyoming.

Vibrations from Wind Turbines Increased Self-Pollination of Native Forbs, and White Bases Attracted Pollinators: Evidence Along a 28 km Gradient in a Natural Area

Wind
Knowledge of how wind turbines interact with vertebrate animals is growing rapidly; however, less is known about plants and insects. Turbines produce infrasound (≤20 Hz), and these vibrations decrease with distance from turbines. We measured seed set and

Provisional methods to guide species‐specific seed transfer in ecological restoration

Ecosphere, 2018
Transferring plant material during ecological restoration has inherent risk. The use of seed transfer guidelines minimizes the possibility of introducing maladapted genotypes.

Transtibial Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using a Synthetic Graft Combined With Remnant Repair: A Hybrid Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The purpose of this technical note is to describe a hybrid arthroscopic technique that combines anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a synthetic graft with concomitant remnant repair. Following diagnostic arthroscopy and assessment of remnant quality, tibial and femoral tunnels are created using a transtibial approach with attention

A Modified Anatomical All‐Inside Double‐Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) is the standard surgical treatment for ACL injuries and is most commonly performed using anatomical single‐bundle (SB) or double‐bundle (DB) techniques. With the development of the all‐inside technique, the all‐inside SB technique using socket‐based tunnels and cortical ...

Disparate home range dynamics reflect nutritional inadequacies on summer range for a large herbivore

Ecosphere
The spatial distribution of animals has consequences for nutrition, predator–prey dynamics, spread of diseases, and population dynamics in general. Animals must establish a home range to secure adequate resources to fuel their energy needs.

Controlled synthesis of Eu2+ and Eu3+ doped ZnS quantum dots and their photovoltaic and magnetic properties

AIP Advances, 2016
Eu-doped ZnS quantum dots (QDs) have been synthesized by wet-chemical method and found to form in zinc blende (cubic) structure. Both Eu2+ and Eu3+ doped ZnS can be controllably synthesized.
