Bony variables: A) maximum length of the humerus (L) was measured as the greatest distance between the top of the humeral head and the most distant point on the distal humerus parallel with the long axis of the bone; * represents histological cut at the proximal 25% diaphyseal length. Maximum length, width (white arrows), and area (black contours) of the deltoid crest, on the lateral (B) and medial side (C) of the crest; D) angle of the crest (θ) was measured at the distal edge of the prominent ridge; E) thickness of the crest measured in the distal margin of the crest cross-section (**).
