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.

Variability of jaw muscles in Tunisian street dogs and adaptation to skull shape
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The impact of artificial selection on the masticatory apparatus of dogs has been poorly studied, and comparative data with dogs subjected to more natural constraints are lacking. This study explores the jaw musculature of Tunisian street dogs, which are largely free from the influence of breed‐specific selection.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

A Needle in a Haystack: Landscape Survey and Archaeological Detection Experiments in Apalachee Bay
Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of a pilot landscape‐scale seismic survey undertaken in Apalachee Bay, Florida, across a submerged landscape that contains dozens of Pre‐Contact sites. In addition to the goals of improving the geophysical and remote sensing ground model for this submerged landscape, the survey also sought to undertake the first

Ibrain, EarlyView., 2023 Compound porcine perebroside and ganglioside injection (CPCGI) was used to treat ischemic stroke. However, there was no clinical evidence of low‐dose CPCGI. We conducted a clinical study to analyze whether the clinical results of low‐dose and standard‐dose CPCGI in patients with ischemic stroke were different.

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective This study aimed to ascertain the effect of secukinumab on erosion and enthesiophyte progression in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) by using high‐resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR‐pQCT). Methods This was a phase 4, double‐blind, randomized, placebo‐controlled trial.

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, EarlyView.Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic began as a health crisis and quickly turned into an economic, social, and political crisis. It revealed the vulnerability of education systems to external changes and risks and challenged institutions and educators to transform and adapt at short notice. Following the COVID‐19 outbreak, one of the natural consequences was

Competing Institutional Logics in Corporate ESG: Evidence From Developing Countries
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drawing on competing institutional logics theory, we examine the institutional complexity of corporate sustainability practices in an underexplored context of developing economies. Analyzing 11,757 firm‐year observations from 19 emerging countries across Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America between 2013 and 2022, we document a U‐shaped ...
