Evaluation of the Course of Inferior Alveolar Canal and its Relation to Anatomical Factors on Digital Panoramic Radiographs [PDF]
Statement of the Problem: The inferior alveolar canal (IAC) is a bony canal that starts from mandibular foramen at the inner surface of the mandibular ramus and extends along the ramus and body of mandibular bone in forward and downward directions to the

Generalized nerves of monads [PDF]
One interpretation of the Kleisli construction (given by Miranda and related to work of Par\'e) is as a nerve sending a monad $P$ to the Kleisli double category of $P$. In this paper we find more general nerve constructions on the 2-categories of monads, which also give fully faithful nerve 2-functors $\mathbf{Mnd}\left(\mathcal{K}\right)\to\mathbf{Dbl}

A new Crocodyloidea from the middle Eocene of Zamora (Duero Basin, Spain)
Abstract The eusuchian crocodyliforms recorded in the Eocene levels of the Spanish Duero Basin belong to three lineages: Planocraniidae, with the species Duerosuchus piscator; Alligatoroidea, represented by several specimens of the genus Diplocynodon; and Crocodyloidea, which includes several specimens traditionally attributed to Asiatosuchus.

Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?
Abstract Sabertoothed mammalian predators, all now extinct, were almost exclusively feloid carnivorans (Eutheria, Placentalia): here a couple of extinct metatherian predators are considered in comparison with the placental sabertooths. Thylacosmilus (the “marsupial sabertooth”) and Thylacoleo (the “marsupial lion”) were both relatively large (puma ...

Functional anatomy of the mandibular nerve: Consequences of nerve injury and entrapment
AbstractVarious anatomic structures including bone, muscle, or fibrous bands may entrap and potentially compress branches of the mandibular nerve (MN). The infratemporal fossa is a common location for MN compression and one of the most difficult regions of the skull to access surgically.

Myological and osteological approaches to gape and bite force reconstruction in Smilodon fatalis
Abstract Masticatory gape and bite force are important behavioral and ecological variables. While much has been written about the highly derived masticatory anatomy of Smilodon fatalis, there remains a great deal of debate about their masticatory behaviors.
