Anatomical Characteristics of the Facial Nerve in Patients With Cochlear Hypoplasia

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To quantitatively characterize the spatial relationships between intratemporal facial nerve segments and key cochlear implantation (CI) landmarks in cochlear hypoplasia (CH), and to compare these features with age‐matched CI recipients with normal inner ear anatomy, thereby informing preoperative planning and facial nerve ...

Volumetric and morphometric analysis of the mastoid process for assessment of sexual dimorphism using cone-beam computed tomography: a pilot study for a new forensic approach

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Forensic Sciences
Background The mastoid process is a compact cranial bone structure, resistant to physical damage since it is inserted into the petrous portion of the temporal bone and therefore protected in the region of the cranial base.

Recent progress in studies of the last million years of human physical and behavioural evolution Avancées récentes dans l’étude du dernier million d'années d’évolution physique et éthologique de l'espèce humaine

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article presents a synthesis of recent developments in the study of human evolution over the past five years. It begins with an overview of hominin species nomenclature and diversity, followed by an examination of the proposed population bottleneck ∼900,000 years ago.

Association Characteristics and Potential Mechanisms of Aging, Gut Microbiota, and Hearing Loss

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The study found that aging leads to unchanged gut microbiota alpha diversity but an increase in Bacteroidetes and a decrease in Firmicutes at the phylum level, with specific genera, species, and functional pathways co‐associated with aging and hearing loss. Through constructing a microbe‐metabolite network, it revealed the mechanism by which protective

Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.

Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

Sleep Preserves, Wake Differentiates: Strength‐Dependent Forgetting of Declarative Memories Across the Retention Interval

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep benefits memory, but the extend to which this benefit depends on initial memory strength remains heavily debated. We examined whether sleep preferentially stabilises weakly versus strongly encoded declarative memories, and whether classical sleep oscillations contribute to this effect.
