Spherical coral-like synovial chondroma within a popliteal cyst: a case report Open
Popliteal cysts are common lesions, primarily characterized by soft tissue swelling, which may occasionally present with calcifications or small osteochondromas, and can rarely lead to restricted movement. We report a case involving a sphe…

Body size and evolutionary rate analyses reveal complex evolutionary history of Alvarezsauria Open
Some of the smallest examples of dinosaurian body size are from alvarezsaurians, an enigmatic group of maniraptoran coelurosaurians with a peculiar combination of anatomical features unique among theropods. Despite the large number of alva…

Functional space analyses reveal the function and evolution of the most bizarre theropod manual unguals Open
Maniraptoran dinosaurs include the ancestors of birds, and most used their hands for grasping and in flight, but early-branching maniraptorans had extraordinary claws of mysterious function. Alvarezsauroids had short, strong arms and hands…
