Sutures are synarthroses connecting the bones of the head with each other through a
fibrous sutural ligament. The knowledge of their biomechanical properties is relevant in the …

The concept of cranial osteopathy was introduced by WG Sutherland, DO, and became the
foundation for setting the rules for use of skull palpation and many other techniques in the …

Irregular interdigitated morphology is prevalent in biological sutures in nature. Suture
complexity index has long been recognized as the most important morphological parameter …

Mild traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), particularly when repetitive in nature, are increasingly
recognized to have a range of significant negative implications for brain health. Much of the …

The mammalian cranial vault largely consists of five flat bones that are joined together along
their edges by soft fibrous tissues called sutures. Premature closure of the cranial sutures …

Background. Cranial sutures are deformable joints between the bones of the skull, bridged
by collagen fibres. They function to hold the bones of the skull together while allowing for …

Objective Differences in complexity of cranial suture forms on the endocranial (ie, deep) and
ectocranial (ie, superficial) skull surfaces have been noted in the literature, indicating …

The relationship between the point of blunt impact and the location of cranial fracture
initiation continues to be poorly understood. The current study used high-speed video to …

Sutured architectures with weak interfaces, such as bone or nacres, have a great potential in
engineering for the design of joints. In this investigation, which is inspired by the subtle …
