Injuries of the sternum and humerus are an important welfare concern in domestic chickens (Gallus domesticus), especially laying hens. Published anatomic references using standardized terminology from the Nomina Anatomica Avium (NAA) are lacking. Objectives of the current retrospective, descriptive study were to provide a user-friendly hierarchical table of NAA-compliant anatomic terms and labeled images illustrating anatomic structures for the sternum and humerus of domestic chickens. Three-dimensional model images were downloaded from a publicly accessible platform, labeled in consultation with a veterinary anatomist, and enhanced by a medical illustrator. Findings can serve as a resource for future clinical and research applications.

Breast plasmacytoma is an uncommon extramedullary manifestation of multiple myeloma (MM). This case presents a primary extramedullary plasmacytoma and progression to MM with breast involvement after 12 years of discovering the disease. The patient is a 54-year-old woman who initially presented with a right humerus pathological fracture that turned out to be a primary extramedullary plasmacytoma.

Colorectal cancer is a prevalent malignancy; it ranks as the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Despite the effectiveness of surgical intervention for primary tumors, ~30% of patients develop metastases, commonly in the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and peritoneum. Bone metastasis is relatively rare but can occur, typically affecting vertebrae, pelvis, femur, and humerus.

Article Synopsis
- A 19-year-old girl had back and joint pain for a long time but didn't get checked out for 3 months, resulting in a serious bone condition called primary hyperparathyroidism.
- She eventually broke a vertebra and went through various tests, but doctors couldn't find out what was wrong at first because they didn't check her calcium levels.
- After finally getting diagnosed, doctors found problems like weak bones and growths in her neck, which are linked to her condition.
The postcranial anatomy of (Therapsida: Therocephalia) from the Karoo Basin of South Africa.

Therocephalia are an important clade of non-mammalian therapsids that evolved a diverse array of morphotypes and body sizes throughout their evolutionary history. The postcranial anatomy of therocephalians has largely been overlooked, but remains important towards understanding aspects of their palaeobiology and phylogenetic relationships. Here, we provide the first postcranial description of the large akidnognathid eutherocephalian by examining multiple specimens from fossil collections in South Africa.

J Am Coll Emerg Physicians Open

Background: Intraosseous (IO) infusion is a life-preserving technique when intravenous access is unobtainable. Successful IO infusion requires sufficiently high flow rates to preserve life but at low enough pressures to avoid complications. However, IO catheter tips are often misplaced, and the relative flow rates and pressures between IO catheter tips placed in medullary, trabecular, and cortical bone are not well described, which has important implications for clinical practice.
