Body mass and sex estimation from lower carnassial tooth morphometry in the endangered Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus): An ecomorphological analysis of sexual size dimorphism

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus) is an endangered subspecies characterized by highly fragmented populations and increasing human–carnivore conflict across the Iberian Peninsula. Although body mass strongly influences predator–prey dynamics and ecological performance, quantitative assessments of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) and body mass

Five-year skeletal and dental stability following bilateral sagittal split osteotomy for mandibular advancement in Class 2 malocclusion

open access: yesJournal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research
Background: Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) is widely used for mandibular advancement in patients with skeletal Class 2 malocclusion; however, long-term postoperative stability remains an important clinical concern.

Redescription of the cranial morphology of Amphisbaena braestrupi and Amphisbaena laurenti (Squamata: Amphisbaenidae) from the Pleistocene of Brazil using x‐ray computed tomography

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Amphisbaenians (Squamata: Amphisbaenidae) are fossorial reptiles with highly specialized cranial morphology, yet their fossil record is frequently limited by fragmentary preservation. This study provides a detailed osteological redescription of the skulls of Amphisbaena braestrupi and Amphisbaena laurenti from the Pleistocene of Lagoa Santa ...

Assessment of intraspecific skull variation in the Campanian baenid turtle Plesiobaena antiqua

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Baenids are freshwater paracryptodiran turtles with a fossil record ranging from the Early Cretaceous to the Eocene. The baenid Plesiobaena antiqua is the most common turtle in the Campanian (Late Cretaceous) Dinosaur Park Formation in Canada, but the apparent intraspecific variation remains poorly understood.

Biomechanical strain patterns in Meckel's cartilage underlie mandibular variation in FGFR2 mouse models

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Sequence variations in fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) are associated with craniosynostosis syndromes, disrupting craniofacial development, yet early mandibular alterations remain poorly characterized. This study examined Meckel's cartilage (MC) and mandibular morphology in mouse models of Apert (Fgfr2+/P253R) and Crouzon ...

Dissecting the dissection laboratory: Elements for designing a human anatomy laboratory

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The human anatomy dissection laboratory is a critical component of anatomical and medical education. Development, maintenance, and stocking of these laboratory spaces have unique demands, with all of the challenges in running a laboratory with Biosafety Laboratory Level 2 (BSL‐2) classification, housing a large volume of tissues saturated with

Biomechanical effects of a mandibular advancement device on the temporomandibular joint

open access: yes, 2018
Mandibular advancement devices are commonly used in the treatment of patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Designed to maintain the mandible in forced protrusion while being worn, mandibular advancement devices (MADs) are intended
