Exploring dietary adaptations in Ursus minimus: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the mandible
Using 3D geometric morphometrics, the dietary adaptations of the extinct Auvergne bear (Ursus minimus) are analysed. Its mandibular morphology aligns more closely with omnivorous rather than insectivorous bears, challenging current ideas. The extinct bear Ursus minimus, which lived in Europe during the Pliocene and possibly Early Pleistocene, is ...

Bears deviate from the inhibitory cascade model (ICM) during molar size evolution, with two significant deviations linked to changes in diet: Ursus minimus and Ursus deningeri. Many bears exhibit a ‘partial ICM’, highlighting the relationship between relative molar size, dietary adaptations and dental development across different species.

Fluoride Varnish for Caries Prevention in Preschoolers: An Overview of Reviews
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to overview the available evidence from systematic reviews (SRs) on the effects of fluoride varnish (FV) for caries prevention in preschoolers. Methods Systematic reviews, with or without meta‐analyses, of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi‐randomised trials evaluating the use of FV in preschoolers to ...
