Intra-eruption forecasting [PDF]
Forecasting eruption onsets has received much attention, in both the short and long term. However, an eruption is not easily reduced to an instant in time, and forecasting what happens after eruption onset has received little attention. Any useful definition of an eruption has to allow for activity over scales ranging from days to decades, and can do ...

Towards scientific forecasting of magmatic eruptions
Forecasting eruptions is a fundamental goal of volcanology. However,difficulties in identifying eruptive precursors, fragmented approachesand lack of resources make eruption forecasting difficult to achieve.In this Review, we explore the first-order scientific approaches thatare essential to progress towards forecasting the time and location ofmagmatic

Elemental models of primate nursing and weaning revisited
Abstract Objectives Intra‐tooth patterns of trace elements barium (Ba) and strontium (Sr) have been used to infer human and nonhuman primate nursing histories, including australopithecine and Neanderthal juveniles. Here, we contrast the two elemental models in first molars (M1s) of four wild baboons and explore the assumptions that underlie each ...

Morphologies in‐between: The impact of the first steps on the human talus
Abstract Objective The development of bipedalism is a very complex activity that contributes to shaping the anatomy of the foot. The talus, which starts ossifying in utero, may account for the developing stages from the late gestational phase onwards.

Embryonic cranial cartilage defects in the Fgfr3Y367C/+ mouse model of achondroplasia
Abstract Achondroplasia, the most common chondrodysplasia in humans, is caused by one of two gain of function mutations localized in the transmembrane domain of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) leading to constitutive activation of FGFR3 and subsequent growth plate cartilage and bone defects.

Autosomal recessive hyper‐IgE syndrome due to DOCK8 deficiency: An adjunctive role for omalizumab
We report a rare case of AR‐HIES with DOCK8 deficiency in a young male that was successfully treated by infection management, skincare, diet elimination, and omalizumab. Abstract Autosomal recessive hyper‐IgE syndrome (AR‐HIES) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by high serum IgE levels, recurrent viral skin infections, severe ...

Predictors and morphological properties of culprit healed plaques in patients with angina pectoris
Abstract Background Plaque healing may serve a vital function in the natural progression of atherosclerotic disease. This study sought to investigate predictors and morphological characteristics of healed plaque (HP) among angina pectoris (AP) patients.

High doses of zoledronic acid induce differential effects on femur and jawbone microstructure
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study is to investigate the long‐term effects on jaw and femur bone induced by oncologic doses of zoledronic acid in a young rat model. Material and Methods Six 12‐week‐old male Wistar rats received zoledronic acid (0.6 mg/kg) and six control rats received saline solution in the same volume.

Forecasting eruptions from long-quiescent volcanoes [PDF]
AbstractForecasts of eruption are uncertain. The uncertainty is amplified when volcanoes reawaken after several generations in repose, because direct evidence of previous behaviour is rarely available. It fosters scepticism about warnings of volcanic activity and may compromise the success of emergency procedures.
