ABSTRACT Morphological and morphometric analysis of archaeological animal hairs offers a nondestructive method to explore past clothing. We examined hair from two 18th‐century burial areas (SP03 and SP04) in Mazamet, France. SP03 specimens exhibited a continuous medulla, a low medullary index (0.2 ± 0.03) and cuticular features suggesting goat or ...

Summary The efficacy of ciclosporin (CsA) to treat transfusion‐independent non‐severe aplastic anaemia (TI‐NSAA) has not yet been systematically evaluated. We conducted a prospective trial in patients with TI‐NSAA treated with CsA monotherapy. CsA (3.5 mg/kg/day) was administered to patients with TI‐NSAA aged ≥16.

A 50‐year perspective on the use and potential of artiodactyl calcanei in bone adaptation studies
ABSTRACT Sheep and deer calcanei are important models for studying cortical (compact) and trabecular (cancellous) bone adaptation because they are amenable to direct strain measurement (due to lack of surrounding muscles), experience relatively simple/unidirectional bending, exhibit osteon remodelling, and have the most pronounced regional variations ...

New perspectives on head and neck allometry and ecomorphology in tetrapods
ABSTRACT The skull and neck are vital parts of the body, influencing feeding ecology, habitat exploitation and locomotion. Numerous studies have therefore sought to understand how the size of these segments vary with ecology and scale with overall body size.
