The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

Development of a computer-aided design software for dental splint in orthognathic surgery [PDF]
Sci. Rep. 6, 38867 (2016), 2017 In the orthognathic surgery, dental splints are important and necessary to help the surgeon reposition the maxilla or mandible. However, the traditional methods of manual design of dental splints are difficult and time-consuming. The research on computer-aided design software for dental splints is rarely reported.

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Companding algorithm for the detection of malignant lesions in HDR CT mandibular images [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Compressing and expanding (companding) HDR computerized tomography (CT) images to a single LDR image is still a relevant challenge. Besides the general need for simplification of the window setting method for the purpose of diagnosis, there are specific clinical needs for the resection of malignant lesions in the mandible, for example, where the ...

Osteochondroma of Bilateral Mandibular Condyle with Review of Literature.
Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2016 Osteochondroma (OC) is a common slow growing tumour of bone. This lesion is frequently seen in the axial skeleton and is relatively uncommon in oral and maxillofacial region. In facial bones, it usually affects the mandibular condyle followed by coronoid

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

Is cranial anatomy indicative of fossoriality? A case study of the mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Determining the ecology of fossil species presents considerable challenges due to the often fragmentary preservation of specimens. The mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui from the Jurassic of China is known only from the cranium and mandible but may have had a fossorial lifestyle.
