The relationship between overweight/obesity and dental erosion among a group of Saudi children and adolescents

Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2019
Background: As childhood obesity is emerging in Saudi children and adolescents with high prevalence, it is considered as one of the major public health concerns. Therefore, it has been studied in relation to other diseases as a cause factor. Aim: The aim

Cristid obliqua morphology as a correlate of diet in lorisoids

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Methods for elucidating dietary patterns from dental morphology have provided much insight into molar form, function, and diet in extinct taxa. However, many methods rely on the collection of homologous landmarks (like shearing crest lengths), or computationally intensive and nuanced metrics that capture shape (like dental topography). Here, a

Redescription of †Eobrasilia coutoi (Metatheria: Polydolopimorphia), a unique sclerocarpophagous metatherian from the Palaeogene of South America: Systematic affinities, and paleoecological and evolutionary implications

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The ‘Palaeogene strata’ of the Itaboraí Basin (upper Paleocene‐lower Eocene), Southeastern Brazil, has preserved 29 genera and almost 50 species of metatherians (about 65% of its mammalian diversity). Among them, Eobrasilia coutoi Simpson, 1947 is the most enigmatic due to its quite fragmentary nature.

First evidence of a mandibular crest in Brasileodactylus Kellner, 1984 (Pterosauria, Pteranodontoidea, Anhangueridae), with comments on pterosaur headcrests

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Brasileodactylus araripensis Kellner, 1984, is a toothed pterosaur from the Lower Cretaceous Romualdo Formation of the Araripe Basin, Brazil. Traditionally regarded as crestless, the species has been central to debates on anhanguerid taxonomy, as most members of the clade possess well‐developed sagittal cranial or dentary crests.

Hormonal control and signaling of the testis of the bat Molossus molossus during the processes of testicular maturation, regression, and recrudescence

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Molossus molossus, a species of neotropical bat belonging to the Molossidae family, has an annual reproductive cycle that includes two peaks of spermatogenic activity, one in April and another in September, and a period of total testicular regression in December.

First Record of Tasmanian Devils in the Pilbara: Late Quaternary Subfossils From Juukan Gorge, Puutu Kunti Kurrama Country, and Insights Into Human—Faunal Relationships and Extinction

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents the first unequivocal evidence for the presence of Tasmanian devils (Sarcophilus harrisii) in the Pilbara region of northwestern Australia, based on material recovered from archaeological excavations at Juukan Gorge on Puutu Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura country.

Dual Effects of β‐TrCP2 Deletion in Bone Homeostasis: Suppression of Osteoclastogenesis and Enhancement of Osteoblast Activity

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives To elucidate role of beta‐transducin repeat‐containing protein 2 (β‐TrCP2) in bone homeostasis for its potential as a therapeutic target for osteoporosis. Methods The role of β‐TrCP2 in bone phenotypes was investigated using systemic β‐TrCP1KO and β‐TrCP2KO mice, along with myeloid‐specific conditional β‐TrCP2KO (β‐TrCP2ΔM) mice.

Departing from standard practices: Strategic application of value engineering in the anatomy laboratory to enhance formaldehyde extraction using high‐impact, low‐cost, and low‐maintenance solutions

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 241-253, March 2025.
Abstract This study describes the process of developing a high‐impact, low‐cost, and low‐maintenance air ventilation system for anatomy facilities. It employed the strategic application of Value Engineering (VE), assuring that the air ventilation system meets contemporary threshold limit values (TLVs) for formaldehyde in the working zone of dissection ...
