Abstract Metastatic bone disease significantly impacts cancer‐related morbidity and mortality nowadays. Herein, we present an adult individual, probably a female, with multiple osteolytic lesions, of variable sizes, distributed predominantly in the axial skeleton but also affecting elements appendicular region. This individual exhibits atypical manifestations metastatic disease, form acrometast...

Ectrodactyly is a rare anomaly seen in the appendicular skeleton and characterized by cleft or split between bone soft tissue distal regions of extremities. may be associated with absence hypoplasia several carpal-metacarpal bones, phalanx duplication, metacarpal synostosis. In this case report, 2-years-old mixed breed male dog was presented withhold up left forelimb inspectional abnormality cl...

The use of instability devices and exercises to train the core musculature is an essential feature of many training centres and programs. It was the intent of this position stand to provide recommendations regarding the role of instability in resistance training programs designed to train the core musculature. The core is defined as the axial skeleton and all soft tissues with a proximal attach...

The axial and appendicular skeleton of vertebrates develops by endochondral ossification, in which skeletogenic tissue is initially cartilaginous and the differentiation of chondrocytes via the hypertrophic pathway precedes the differentiation of osteoblasts and the deposition of a definitive bone matrix. Results from both loss-of-function and misexpression studies have implicated the related h...

A top priority in osteoporosis research is the identification of the structural parameters that contribute to variations in the strength of bone and the risk of fragility fractures. For the past two decades, DXA has been used to diagnose osteoporosis based on measurements of BMC and areal BMD. Whereas DXA has become the most commonly used technique worldwide to predict fracture risk and assess ...
