The main variants of symptoms developing in response to long-term tonic muscle tension in degenerative age-dependent injuries of vertebral bodies, intervertebral discs and facet joints at the level of thoracic and lumbosacral spine are shown. Pathogenetic connections of frequent urination disorders in ...
had no formal qualification in palaeontology (though he did have a doctorate in physics). That was in a time when it was hard to get access to the literature outside of formal programs, but that’s not true any more. If what you really want is to do research...
So we don’t need to add any space for cartilage to the summed minimum (without condyle) lengths–there certainly was cartilage between the surfaces of the condyles and cotyles, because that’s how intervertebral joints work, but there was not enough to push the condyles back outside the ...
(without condyle) lengths–there certainly was cartilage between the surfaces of the condyles and cotyles, because that’s how intervertebral joints work, but there was not enough to push the condyles back outside the cotyles, unless we want to engage in some special pleading that C3-C5 ...
It’s easy to tell these apart, even when as here we have only lateral-view images: the dorsal vertebra is tall, its centrum is short, its neural spine is anteroposteriorly compressed and its parapophysis is up on the dorsal half of the centrum; but the cervical vertebra is relatively lo...
in previous years (see tables and discussions in Wedel and Taylor 2013a and Hone et al. 2016). But some things I’ve been calling “subadults” based on unfused joints may actually have been done growing. And on the flip side, I think some things with fused joints may have still been...

facet, which is often located more anteriorly than you might guess, you can’t tell when the epipophysis projects further posteriorly, as in the last of these vertebrae. In this case youcanmake it out, but only because the interpretive drawing shows the facet much more clearly than the ...
