This is the fourth in a series of articles related to procedure-oriented joint anatomy. This article reviews the anatomy of the hip and its relationship to procedures in the clinical setting with or without imaging guidance. Anatomically correct axial and coronal schematics allow injections to be envisioned relative to clinically important anatomy for common hip procedures. Cross-sectional schematics for the hip were drawn as they appear in imaging projections. The levels and planes of cross section were selected to highlight important anatomic landmarks for injection. It is hoped that these schematics allow for safer and more accurate needle procedures in the knee area.

Background: Hip morphology variations, particularly in femoral neck shaft angle (NSA) and iliac wing width (IWW), have been associated with gluteal tendinopathy. However, the biomechanical implications of these morphological differences on gluteal muscle function are not well understood. This study investigates how NSA and IWW influence gluteal muscle forces, moment arms, and estimated tendon loads during walking, aiming to provide insights into the potential biomechanical pathways that may contribute to altered lateral hip loading patterns.

Brainstem atrophy, particularly in the locus coeruleus, has also been linked with poorer executive function. Studies showing brainstem as one of the first regions affected by AD largely employed novel imaging techniques such as neuromelanin-sensitive MRI, which is limited to research environments.

Background: Though frailty is common in aging, its impact on varied health outcomes has been grossly understudied among rural Indians. We aimed to cross-sectionally examine the impact of physical frailty on 13 health outcomes and brain structure in this population.
Method: Participants (n=5302) were non-demented, aging individuals (≥45 years) from the ongoing Srinivaspura Aging Neuro Senescence and Cognition (SANSCOG) cohort in rural southern India.

Background: Cardiometabolic disorders are emerging risk factors for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD-related dementia (ADRD). There is currently insufficient understanding of how different cardiometabolic profiles and blood biomarkers impact different AD-related brain pathology regionally. This project uses data-driven approaches and explainable artificial intelligence methods to determine the cardiometabolic and fluid contributions toward AD-related pathophysiologic patterns in the brain.
