New perspectives on evolutionary medicine: the relevance of microevolution for human health and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Evolutionary medicine (EM) is a growing field focusing on the evolutionary basis of human diseases and their changes through time. To date, the majority of EM studies have used pure theories of hominin macroevolution to explain the present-day state of ...

Health inequality in medieval Cambridge, 1200–1500 CE

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 185, Issue 2, October 2024.
Abstract Health inequality is not only a major problem today; it left its mark upon past societies too. For much of the past, health inequality has been poorly studied, mostly because bioarchaeologists have concentrated upon single sites rather than a broader social landscape. This article compares 476 adults in multiple locations of medieval Cambridge

Involvement of the Wnt/β‐catenin signalling pathway in heterotopic ossification and ossification‐related diseases

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 28, Issue 18, September 2024.
Abstract Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a pathological condition characterized by the formation of bone within soft tissues. The development of HO is a result of abnormal activation of the bone formation programs, where multiple signalling pathways, including Wnt/β‐catenin, BMP and hedgehog signalling, are involved.

Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract Chapter 48 discusses diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH), which is a rarely symptomatic, benign condition of extensive ossification of ligament and tendon attachments to bone. It is primarily overlap of the imaging features of DISH and the seronegative spondyloarthropathies (SpA) that makes it a clinically ...

Prevalence of sacroiliac joint fusion in females and males depending on parity status

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 184, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Objectives Previous research shows that sacroiliac (SI) joint fusion is age and sex dependent. Older individuals—specifically starting in the fifth or sixth decade of life—are more likely to develop SI fusion. Females have a lower frequency of SI joint fusion than males, perhaps due to pregnancy or parturition.
