Un cas d’accouchement en occipito-pubien chez Pan troglodytes by Pierre Frémondière, Romain Lacoste, Lyna Rachid

“…These characteristics have been interpreted from an evolutionary perspective and they are supposed to be due to the physical constraints related to the increase in brain size and bipedal locomotion. In this study, we analyse a close-up video recording of the delivery of a female Pan troglodytes from the Réserve africaine de Sigean (France). …”

Functional insights from an exploration of the inner structure of the patella: new perspectives for the study of the hominin fossil record by Marine Cazenave

“…The patella plays a key functional role in the knee joint and thus reflects habitual postural and locomotion modes. However, patellar remains are rare in the hominin fossil record and it is still unclear whether and how their differences in shape and proportions compared to extant humans affect knee kinesiology. …”

Clumsiness and Disturbed Cerebellar Development: Insights From Animal Experiments by Albert Gramsbergen

“…Both these interferences affect cerebellar development and our results in rats indicate that they also lead to retardations in the, emergence of certain reflexes, as well as to longer lasting motor impairments during locomotion. Extrapolation of these results strongly suggests that a disturbed cerebellar development should be considered as an important etiological factor in clumsiness in human children.…”
