Appraising the methodological quality of cadaveric studies: validation of the QUACS scale.

abstract：:The role of the neural arch in weight transmission in the cervical and upper thoracic regions of the vertebral column has been investigated. Measurements at the levels of C2, C4, C6, C7, T1 and T5 vertebrae were made in 44 adult male vertebral columns. At each level, the area of the inferior surface of the body was co...

abstract：:In the spinotrapezius muscle of the rat and the mouse approximately equal proportions of A,B and C fibres are present. The spinotrapezius therefore contains a lower proportion of B fibres than are known to be present in soleus, but a higher proportion than in tibialis anterior. These results are consistent with the fu...
