The nomenclatures of the taxa of the mangrove Rhizophoraceae of India have been scrutinized and 20 names are lectotypified or neotypified. In addition, the holotypes of some names are located for the first time with clarifications provided. Since natural hybridization is common in Rhizophoraceae, its consequences for the correct application of names is also briefly discussed. 相似文献

The facial nerve branch termed Ramus communicans cum nervo glossopharyngeo in the current Nomina anatomica was investigated in 245 Japanese, especially as regards the frequency and pertinence as an approved definition. The communication was found in only 18.8%. It runs, if present, either medially, laterally or through the digastric posterior muscle. Teasing examination reveals that it always originates from the ninth nerve instead of the seventh and that it is destined to the back of the pinna. Its terminal bundle leaves the seventh nerve somewhat distally than the posterior auricular nerve in many examples, but the communication is likely to represent the auricular branch of the ninth nerve. As an offshoot of the seventh nerve, it is ill-defined, and should be affiliated to the ninth nerve in the Nomina anatomica. If it pierces the digastric muscle, half examples certainly give additional innervation to this muscle, but the fundamental disposition of the communication itself is not affected. 相似文献

Vesicles, generally defined as self-assembled structures formed by single or multiple concentric bilayers that surround an aqueous core, have been widely used for biomedical applications. They can either occur naturally (e.g. exosomes) or be produced artificially and range from the micrometric scale to the nanoscale. One the most well-known vesicle is the liposome, largely employed as a drug delivery nanocarrier. Liposomes have been modified along the years to improve physicochemical and biological features, resulting in long-circulating, ligand-targeted and stimuli-responsive liposomes, among others. In this process, new nomenclatures were reported in an extensive literature. In many instances, the new names suggest the emergence of a new nanocarrier, which have caused confusion as to whether the vesicles are indeed new entities or could simply be considered modified liposomes. Herein, we discussed the extensive nomenclature of vesicles based on the suffix “some” that are employed for drug delivery and composed of various types and proportions of lipids and others amphiphilic compounds. New names have most often been selected based on changes of vesicle lipid composition, but the payload, structural complexity (e.g. multicompartment) and new/improved proprieties (e.g. elasticity) have also inspired new vesicle names. Based on this discussion, we suggested a rational classification for vesicles. 相似文献

A digital database of wrist bone anatomy and carpal kinematics 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The skeletal wrist consists of eight small, intricately shaped carpal bones. The motion of these bones is complex, occurs in three dimensions, and remains incompletely defined. Our previous efforts have been focused on determining the in vivo three-dimensional (3-D) kinematics of the normal and abnormal carpus. In so doing we have developed an extensive database of carpal bone anatomy and kinematics from a large number of healthy subjects. The purpose of this paper is to describe that database and to make it available to other researchers. CT volume images of both wrists from 30 healthy volunteers (15 males and 15 females) were acquired in multiple wrist positions throughout the normal range of wrist motion. The outer cortical surfaces of the carpal bones, radius and ulna, and proximal metacarpals were segmented and the 3-D motion of each bone was calculated for each wrist position. The database was constructed to include high-resolution surface models, measures of bone volume and shape, and the 3-D kinematics of each segmented bone. The database does not include soft tissues of the wrist. While there are numerous digital anatomical databases, this one is unique in that it includes a large number of subjects and it contains in vivo kinematic data as well as the bony anatomy. 相似文献

Computer assisted surgical interventions and research in joint kinematics rely heavily on the accurate registration of three-dimensional bone surface models reconstructed from various imaging technologies. Anomalous results were seen in a kinematic study of carpal bones using a principal axes alignment approach for the registration. The study was repeated using an iterative closest point algorithm, which is more accurate, but also more demanding to apply. The principal axes method showed errors between 0.35 mm and 0.49 mm for the scaphoid, and between 0.40 mm and 1.22 mm for the pisiform. The iterative closest point method produced errors of less than 0.4 mm. These results show that while the principal axes method approached the accuracy of the iterative closest point algorithm in asymmetrical bones, there were more pronounced errors in bones with some symmetry. Principal axes registration for carpal bones should be avoided. 相似文献

A provisional list of common names for the known species of Australian butterflies is presented, and the advantages of producing such a set of standard common names discussed. the criteria and methodology on which the names are based are detailed and instances in which terms should be avoided itemised. All previously used names are reviewed and current or traditional names considered; where possible, traditional names were given highest priority. Group names have been standardised at the higher taxonomic levels (i.e. genus, tribe, subfamily etc.). Problems faced in compiling the list are discussed and comments on the suitability of the proposed names invited. 相似文献

The growth of the 19 tubular hand bones from fetal months 5 to 9 was studied by the allometric method. The hand bones were carefully dissected under a low power stereoscopic microscope. The length and breadth of all bones was found to be monophasic in relation to crown-rump length. In general, maximum bone and ossified shaft lengths in the same row group demonstrate similar allometric coefficients. The specific growth rate of ossified shaft length for all fetal hand bones is greater than the growth rate of maximum length. The highest allometric coefficients for both maximum length and ossified shaft length were obtained from the middle phalanges. The shape of the metacarpals and distal phalanges becomes thinner, while the other bones become thicker or maintain their length-breadth ratio. The relative growth pattern of the first proximal phalanx differed from the middle phalangeal group of the other digits. This suggests that current nomenclatures for the three bones of the pollex is appropriate. 相似文献

The gross examination of 50 minium injected specimens showed us the various patterns of the posterior arterial network of the wrist. This is chiefly provided by the radial artery which gives off a constant dorsal carpal branch over the posterior aspect of the trapezium. This vessel crosses the carpus transversely to the inner border of the hand and is joined in half of the cases by the interosseous artery; contribution of the posterior carpal branch of the ulnar artery was more rarely found than usually described (25%). From the arch thus formed are given off short branches which run upwards along the intercarpal joints and enter the posterior aspects of the proximal carpal bones whose lower halves seem to be the most favorably supplied. On the contrary, the distal carpal bones receive several short twigs which penetrate their posterior surfaces. Although the arrangement of the pedicles may undergo many a variation, attention must be drawn to the fact that the dorsal arteries are smaller but denser than the volar, except for the hamate. Therefore 2 different patterns of arterial supply can be described at the carpus: the blood supply of the outer and axial bones--scaphoid, trapezium, lunate, capitate--derives from the radial and the interosseous arteries and is probably shared equally by volar and dorsal branches; the inner bones--triquetrum, hamate--are primarily supplied by volar or medial branches coming almost exclusively from the ulnar artery. 相似文献

The recent recommendation that it is preferable to recognize too many rather than too few species in the fossil record has
led to a growing proliferation of specific names. Single specimens are being referred to different species by different authors,
and new species are being proposed based on the juxtaposition of specimens from different sites and time levels representing
different anatomical parts. In part this may represent the continuity of the Medieval assertion that a multitude of species
is a better demonstration of the goodness of a divinely created world than a multitude of individuals in a single species.
This has apparently accompanied the resurgence of the Medieval faith that species relationship are best demonstrated by the
application of hierarchical Aristotelean logic. On the other hand, the suspicion remains that the vanity of the namer is frequently
involved in the creation of new nomina. In general, anthropologists do not exhibit the “wide experience” and consequent “sound
judgment” that Darwin recommended as necessary for those giving specific names. If the same criteria used to assign specific
fossil names were applied to modern Homo sapiens, the different regional human populations would have to be recognized as
specifically distinct. In opposition to the recommendation that we should recognize ever more specific names, there should
be a moratorium called and no new species names should be proposed at all. The continuation of patterns of trivial trait configurations
associated with the various inhabited regions of the world clearly indicates genetic continuity through time but, unless it
can be shown that there is no reproductive continuity between one region and another, these differences do not warrant taxonomic
recognition. Major adaptive changes such as significant increases in relative brain size do warrant formal named recognition. 相似文献

The eight small and complexly shaped carpal bones of the wrist articulate in six degrees of freedom with each other and to some extent with the radius and the metacarpals. With the increasing number and sophistication of studies of the carpus, a standardized definition for a coordinate system for each the carpal bones would aid in the reporting and comparison of findings. This paper presents a method for defining and constructing a coordinate system specific to each of the eight carpal bones based upon the inertial properties of the bone, derived from surface models constructed from three-dimensional (3-D) medical image volumes. Surface models from both wrists of 5 male and 5 female subjects were generated from CT image volumes in two neutral wrist positions (functional and clinical). An automated algorithm found the principal inertial axes and oriented them according to preset conditions in 85% of the bones, the remaining bones were corrected manually. Six of the eight carpal bones were significantly more extended in the functional neutral position than in the clinical neutral position. Gender had no significant effect on carpal bone posture in either wrist position. Correlations between the 3-D carpal posture and the commonly used 2-D clinical radiographic carpal angles are established. 3-D coordinate systems defined by the anatomy of the carpal bone, such as the ones presented here, are necessary to completely describe 3-D changes in the posture of the carpal bones. 相似文献

There are now overlapping codes of nomenclature that govern some of the same names of biological taxa. The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) uses the non-evolutionary concept of a "type species" to fix the names of animal taxa to particular ranks in the nomenclatural hierarchy. The PhyloCode, in contrast, uses phylogenetic definitions for supraspecific taxa at any hierarchical level within the Tree of Life (without associating the names to particular ranks), but does not deal with the names of species. Thus, biologists who develop classifications of animals need to use both systems of nomenclature, or else operate without formal rules for the names of some taxa (either species or many monophyletic groups). In addition, the ICZN does not permit the unique naming of many taxa that are considered to be between the ranks of genus and species. Hillis and Wilcox [Hillis, D.M., Wilcox, T.P., 2005. Phylogeny of the New World true frogs (Rana). Mol. Phylogenet. Evol. 34, 299-314] provided recommendations for the classification of New World true frogs that utilized the ICZN to provide names for species, and the PhyloCode to provide names for supraspecific taxa. Nonetheless, they created new taxon names that followed both sets of rules, to avoid conflicting classifications. They also recommended that established names for both species and clades be used whenever possible, to stabilize the names of both species and clades under either set of rules, and to avoid conflicting nomenclatures. Dubois [Dubois, A., 2006. Naming taxa from cladograms: a cautionary tale. Mol. Phylogenet. Evol., 42, 317-330] objected to these principles, and argued that the names provided by Hillis and Wilcox [Hillis, D.M., Wilcox, T.P., 2005. Phylogeny of the New World true frogs (Rana). Mol. Phylogenet. Evol. 34, 299-314] are unavailable under the ICZN, and that the two nomenclatural systems are incompatible. Here, I argue that he is incorrect in these assertions, and present arguments for retaining the established names of New World true frogs, which are largely compatible under both sets of nomenclatural rules. 相似文献

The shape and size of insertion sites associated to the relevant carpal ligaments are given in terms of outlines and surface areas. The sites are reconstructed as areas on the contours of the carpal bones with the use of three-dimensional reconstruction of serially sectioned wrists. The computer-models of the wrist-joint show accurately the sofar uncharted three-dimensional orientations of the insertions. The documentation of the surface areas is a first approach to the quantitative analysis of the bone-ligament complex of the wrist-joint. This is needed in future studies about the role of the ligament behavior in wrist-joint motion. 相似文献

The mammalian Carpus is a complex of several small bones with multiple interactions during walking. Therefore, it is highly probable that different mammalian families developed distinctive constellations in their Carpi, which could be useful for biometric identification of phylogenetic groupings. The carpal bones of nineteen extant ruminant species (nine bovid, nine cervid, and one moschid) have been investigated to search for biometric traits which are diagnostic for the three families. Additionally, we searched for diverging functional adaptations in the carpal constellations. Therefore, measurements have been taken from the five main carpals, which are carrying the body weight. As a sesamoid bone, Os carpi accessorium was excluded. After transformation of the data into their natural logarithms, multivariate methods of factor analyses and discriminant analyses were performed for each bone. Bivariate plots of the factor scores allowed a clear separation of bovids and cervids. The only one species of the Moschidae (Moschus moschiferus) lies closer to the cervids than to the bovids. The grouping is due to phylogenetic relationships and not due to functional differences in the groups or differing habitat preferences. Generally, the carpals of cervids are more slender and higher in contrast to the bulky and flat carpals in bovids. This approach could be used to assign isolated carpal bones found in fossil sites to their ruminant family. 相似文献

An in-vivo approach to the measurement of three-dimensional motion patterns of carpal bones in the wrist may have future diagnostic applications, particularly for ligament injuries of the wrist. Static methods to measure carpal kinematics in-vivo only provide an approximation of the true kinematics of the carpal bones. This study is aimed at finding the difference between dynamically and statically acquired carpal kinematics.For eight healthy subjects, static and a dynamic measurements of the carpal kinematics were performed for a flexion–extension and a radio–ulnar deviation movement. Dynamic scans were acquired by using a four-dimensional X-ray imaging system during an imposed cyclic motion. To assess static kinematics of the wrists, three-dimensional rotational X-ray scans were acquired during step-wise flexion–extension and radio–ulnar deviation. The helical axis rotations and the rotation components. i.e. flexion–extension, radio–ulnar deviation and pro–supination were the primary parameters. Linear mixed model statistical analysis was used to determine the significance of the difference between the dynamically and statically acquired rotations of the carpal bones.Small and in most cases negligible differences were observed between the dynamic motion and the step-wise static motion of the carpal bones. The conclusion is that in the case of individuals without any pathology of the wrist, carpal kinematics can be studied either dynamically or statically. Further research is required to investigate the dynamic in-vivo carpal kinematics in patients with dynamic wrist problems. 相似文献

Fossil bones from the Lower Pleistocene site of Venta Micena bear cut-marks in a small proportion of specimens, similar to
that of bones with cut-marks at East African sites at Olduvai and East Lake Turkana. Cut-marks are distinguishable from other
surface marks on bone cortex in terms of metrical characteristics, anatomical location, grouping, and microscopical characteristics,
particularly those such as microstriations which may be observed with the scanning electron microscope. 相似文献
