DOI: 10.1002/jmor.21414
Abstract: In dictating the relative distances between the elbow, shoulder and wrist, avian brachial index (BI = humerus/radius‐ulna length) likely influences wing kinematics and, therefore, might predict extinct avian flight capability. This underpins the hypothesis that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2021.108044
Abstract: We measured upstroke time in 509 patients with diabetes who had a normal ankle-brachial index (ABI) (1.00 ≤ ABI ≤ 1.40) (443 men and 66 women; mean age: 67.6 ± 10.8 years). The prevalence of cardiovascular disease was significantly higher in patients… read more here.
