Investigating relationships among strontium, barium, and seasonality in wild baboons

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Geochemical profiles of Australopithecus africanus and baboon teeth show fluctuating trace elements, possibly reflecting seasonal diets. Here we use laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric measurements of calcium‐normalized strontium and barium ratios (Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca) and ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotopes (δ18O ...

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

Is Obesity Associated With Dental Caries in Primary Dentition? Findings From a Birth Cohort in Southern Brazil

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Nutritional disorders and dental caries share common risk factors, including diet and socioeconomic position, but the association between these two conditions remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential association between overweight/obesity and the occurrence of dental caries in primary dentition ...

Repeated Use of Emergency Departments for Nontraumatic Dental Conditions: Factors Associated With Being a Superutilizer

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Due to inadequate access to regular, affordable dental care, many patients turn to emergency departments (EDs) for the treatment of nontraumatic dental conditions (NTDCs). NTDC ED visits are a large burden on the U.S. healthcare system, with over 1.3 million visits each year and over $1 billion in associated charges.

Pathways Linking Socioeconomic Circumstances to Childhood Dental Caries: The Mediating Role of Parenting and Oral Health Behaviours Before and After Childsmile Implementation

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To determine the extent that parenting styles and oral health behaviours mediate the relationship between socioeconomic circumstances (SEC) and childhood dental caries experience: pre−/post‐national roll‐out in 2011 of Childsmile, the child oral health improvement programme for Scotland.

Molecular Basis and Clinical Spectrum of WNT10A‐Related Oligodontia

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Cellular Mechanism behind WNT10A phenotypes. ABSTRACT WNT10A mutations, a major genetic determinant of dental agenesis and ectodermal dysplasia, exert profound effects on craniofacial development. Although classified as rare disorders, these mutations account for more than half of oligodontia cases, reflecting their critical role.

Retinoic Acid Signalling Regulates Zebrafish Tooth Germ Repair Following Injury

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Retinoic acid signalling may regulate the repair processes in a tooth germ injury model using Tg(scpp5:Dendra2‐NTR) zebrafish and the nitroreductase (NTR)/metronidazole (MTZ) system. ABSTRACT Although the role of retinoic acid (RA) signalling in odontogenesis is well established, its involvement in the repair of injured tooth germs remains unclear.

Single‐Cell Virtual Perturbation Screening Identifies STAT3 as a Key Regulator of Dentinogenesis

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
STAT3 promotes odontoblast differentiation in dental mesenchymal cells by transcriptionally regulating WNT2B via the canonical Wnt/β‐catenin signalling pathway. These findings elucidate a mechanism underlying dentine development. ABSTRACT Dentine formation constitutes a physiological process precisely regulated by signal transduction modules governing ...
