Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

Scratching beneath the surface: Quantification of muscle architecture and myosin heavy chain content in the forelimbs of black‐tailed prairie dogs (Cynomys, Rodentia)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Black‐tailed prairie dogs are highly social ground squirrels that excavate communal burrow systems, most often in medium‐textured soils. Their forelimbs demonstrate morphofunctional trade‐offs for scratch‐digging and terrestrial ecology, including well‐developed and fast‐contracting proximal musculature with large mechanical advantage paired with ...

Explicit Beliefs About Nonverbal Behavior and the Big Five Traits

Journal of Personality, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Everyday experience as well as the research literature on trait attributions suggest that people use nonverbal cues when judging the personality of a person. However, little research has reported on people's explicitly held beliefs about these associations.

A Principled Framework for Mendelian Randomization in Oral Health Research

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This methodological article provides a clear and accessible overview of Mendelian randomization for oral health researchers, emphasizing the core assumptions needed for credible causal inference. Focusing on applications in oral health, particularly periodontitis, it highlights both the strengths and limitations of the study design in order to support ...

Molar–Incisor and Generalized Grade C Periodontitis: Distinct Microbiome–Immune Interactions Suggest Divergent Pathogenesis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Molar–Incisor (PerioC‐MIP) and Generalized (PerioC‐G) Grade C Periodontitis in systemically healthy patients exhibit different microbiological, inflammatory markers, and genomic signatures, as the analysis of subgingival content from North Americans with PerioC‐MIP and Brazilians with PerioC‐G (geographic preference of each respective phenotype ...

Historical shifts, geographic biases, and biological constraints shape mammal species discovery

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Taxonomic descriptions of mammals have become more robust from 1990 to 2025, with increased specimen sampling, broader comparisons, and more integrative methods. However, disparities remain: tropical and small‐bodied species are less comprehensively described, reflecting ongoing geographic and biological biases.
