Developmental venous anomaly related to de novo cerebral cavernous malformation: Imaging findings from two cases

Sergio Gordillo Tovar · Andrés Felipe Parra

The association between a developmental venous anomaly (DVA) and a cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is well-established. The development of a de novo CCM (dnCCM) adjacent to a preexisting DVA suggests that certain characteristics of the angioarchitecture of the DVA, in addition to genetic and molecular factors, pl...

Moving against inertia, friction and gravity: different modalities, same consequences for animal propulsive force capacity

Mylène Vonderscher · Baptiste Morel · Pablo Rozier-Delgado · Jean-Benoît Morin · y 2 más

ABSTRACT The ability to generate propulsive force at different velocities is essential for animal locomotion but has often been overlooked. This study explored animal locomotion under varying mechanical constraints by addressing whether force capacity measured during acceleration on level ground is representative of pr...
