and noticed these lesions that looked like they were from injuries, explains Joseph Peterson, a palaeontologist at the University of Wisconsin in Oshkosh.

He wondered whether the fossilized injury was one of a kind or whether such lesions were common.

To find out, Peterson and his colleague Collin Dischler started examining more domes. Together, they were able to look at 102 domes from fossil collections around the world.

Of these, 23 had lesions. Fascinated by the presence of so many injuries, Peterson and Dischler produced a three-dimensional computer model of a pachycephalosaur skull

and mapped injuries onto it. They noted that the shape of the dome differed from fossil to fossil

and that the placement of the injuries depended on the shape of the skull. Skulls with low domes tended to have injuries at the front,

whereas skulls with higher domes had distributed lesions evenly between the front and back. The finding hinted that the pachycephalosaurs with differently shaped skulls were bumping heads in different ways.

To find out what those ways were considered, the researchers the butting of sheep, goats and bison."

"The lesions we were seeing were strikingly similar to those that we often see on the skulls of modern mammals that ram heads,

says Peterson. The team found that bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) charge each other head on; that mountain goats (Oreamos americanus) bump one another in the flanks;

On the basis of these examples, Peterson and Dischler speculate that the high-domed pachycephalosaurs with parietal injuries were side-bumping like mountain goats,

and that the frontal injuries are indicative of bison-like wrestling.""It could be that we are seeing two different species bashing in different ways,

whether the lesions really are butt prints.""It is an intriguing study but after examining one of these injuries

I found it hard to rule out the possibility that this might have simply been the skull being chipped after death,

if the lesion sites actually suffered trauma, he says. Whatever the outcome, seven-year-olds will undoubtedly keep on bashing

#Drinking more milk as a teenager does not lower risk of hip fracture laterdrinking more milk as a teenager apparently does not lower the risk of hip fracture as an older adult

While drinking milk during adolescence is recommended to achieve peak bone mass milk's role in hip fractures later in life has not been established.

which is a risk factor for hip fracture according to the study background. Diane Feskanich Sc.

D. of Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard university Boston and colleagues examined the association between remembered teenage milk consumption and risk of hip fracture at older ages in a study of more than 96000 men

During the follow-up 1226 hip fractures were reported by women and 490 by men. Study findings indicate teenage milk consumption (between the ages of 13-18 years) was associated with an increased risk of hip fractures in men with each additional glass of milk per day as a teenager

associated with a 9 percent higher risk. Teenage milk consumption was associated not with hip fractures in women.

The association between drinking milk and hip fractures in men was influenced partially by height according to the studywe did not see an increased risk of hip fracture with teenage milk consumption in women as we did in men.

One explanation may be the competing benefit of an increase in bone mass with an adverse effect of greater height.

Cheese intake during teenage years was associated not with the risk of hip fracture in either men or women.

and height in preventing hip fractures in older adults. Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010 recommends the consumption of three cups of milk

#Sports medicine specialists make pitch to prevent overuse injuries in young athletesit stands to reason that young people who play organized sports are going to get injured.

But while young athletes are susceptible to the ankle sprains wrist fractures and other acute injuries that are common among competitors of all ages numerous studies indicate that approximately half of the sports-related injuries among children

and adolescents in this country are caused by overuse. These injuries--pitcher's elbow swimmer's shoulder runner's knee tennis elbow tendinitis--are the result of repetitive stress on tendons bones and joints.

Because they develop gradually over time they are not as obvious as bruises or breaks and can be more difficult to diagnose and treat.

Overuse injuries in young people are said definitely preventable Dr. David Martin an orthopedic surgeon at Wake Forest Baptist Medical center.

But the incidence of overuse injuries in young athletes has increased at a much quicker rate across all sports for reasons that are no mystery to sports medicine experts.

and more overuse injuries than you normally would see. Playing different sports on the other hand is good for young people on multiple levels said Dr. Daryl Rosenbaum who specializes in family medicine and sports medicine at Wake Forest Baptist.

You also want to avoid an overuse type of injury. It's tough to go pro

That view is echoed by Dr. Michael Freehill a Wake Forest Baptist orthopedic surgeon who specializes in shoulder injuries and assists as team physician for the Winston-salem Dash.

or shoulder as you would by playing the same sport all the time Proper rest is also a key factor in minimizing the risk of overuse injuries.

But Martin for one believes that overuse injuries can be taken out of the picture. The key is said education he.

and coaches to recognize the signs of overuse to catch things before they develop into real injury.

We need to be doing it with overuse injuries too and I think that will come.

#Oxygen-generating compound shows promise for saving tissue after severe injurythe same compound in a common household clothes detergent shows promise as a treatment to preserve muscle tissue after severe injury.

Potential applications include treating amputations crush injuries from car accidents or even blast injuries suffered by those in combat zones.

SPO is a combination of sodium carbonate and hydrogen peroxide molecules. In the presence of water it decomposes into oxygen and other salts.

Normally when blood flow to muscle tissue is reduced due to severe injury the muscle begins to die said Harrison.

Providing extra oxygen to oxygen-deprived muscle following injury is currently a major medical challenge. The few treatments that are available are aimed primarily at increasing the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood

The major implication of these findings is that oxygen-generating compounds can potentially reduce the magnitude of the permanent functional deficits resulting from traumatic injury to muscle said George Christ Ph d. co-author and professor of regenerative medicine at Wake Forest Baptist.

because it delivers oxygen independent of blood flow may also have diverse applications to the salvage repair and regeneration of soft tissue following trauma.
