Measuring sexual dimorphism in human faces

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
CVA outperforms regression scoring when measuring sexual dimorphism in human faces, allowing for more accurate classification and shape reconstruction. Method selection has a significant impact on findings, necessitating a reevaluation of previous claims linking facial masculinity to traits such as height.

Fit for purpose? Analysis of the relationship between skull, beak shape and feeding ecology in Psittaciformes

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Psittaciformes exhibit high levels of morphological diversity, particularly in skull and beak structure, previously linked to diet and body size. Although there were some levels of significance between diet and beak shape, body mass was a much stronger co‐variate. Diet is not determining beak shape within the clade.

Collagen and microvascular alterations contribute to neuromuscular degeneration and disease progression in chronic intestinal pseudo‐obstruction

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Chronic intestinal pseudo‐obstruction (CIPO) is a severe gastrointestinal motility disorder that may be idiopathic or associated with systemic disease. In idiopathic cases, the pathophysiological mechanisms remain poorly defined. Although mutations in angiogenic factors have been reported in mitochondrial forms of CIPO, their role ...

Stem Cells From Dental Pulp, Periodontal Tissues, and Other Oral Sources: Biological Concepts and Regenerative Potential

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A graphical abstract recapping the different sources of dental, periodontal, and other oral‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and their regenerative mechanisms and potentials. The review's article findings bridge fundamental biological science with translational advances, highlighting the significance of MSCs in craniofacial regenerative ...

The Role of Oxidative Stress in Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Oxidative stress is involved in multiple chemical reactions that take place in different intracellular organelles: mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes, autophagy, and aging, and can be influenced by exogenous factors: nutrition, physical activity, psychological status, environmental conditions, microbiome, and drugs.
