    3D shape analyses of extant primate and fossil hominin vertebrae support the ancestral shape hypothesis for intervertebral disc herniation 
    Plomp, Kimberly A.; Dobney, Keith; Weston, Darlene A.; Viðarsdóttir, Una Strand; Collard, Mark (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-12-16)
    Background: Recently we proposed an evolutionary explanation for a spinal pathology that afflicts many people, intervertebral disc herniation (Plomp et al. [2015] BMC Evolutionary Biology 15, 68). Using 2D data, we found that the bodies and pedicles ...
