A Clinical Study of the Distribution and Morphology of Harris Lines

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Harris lines are commonly used in bioarcheology to infer lifestyle in ancient populations; however, their etiology and identification parameters are still under debate. The aim of this study is to observe the distribution of the lesions in a contemporary clinical sample to address their association with etiological factors, age, biological sex,

Changes in sleep patterns in adolescents are more associated with pubertal indicators than age: A perfect storm with a dash of hormones

open access: yesBritish Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract As they become older, adolescents tend to prefer sleeping and rising later. Yet, it is still unclear if these sleep changes occur due to advancing age or because adolescents are more pubertally mature. This was investigated cross‐sectionally in a sample of 121 Brazilian 9‐to‐17‐year‐olds.

Balancing risk and opportunity: Nasute termite responses to predator and competitor chemical cues

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Nasutitermes corniger discriminates between heterospecific chemical cues during foraging, showing non‐random resource selection based on predator and competitor information. Predator chemical cues consistently reduce food resource selection, indicating avoidance driven by perceived predation risk rather than direct encounters.

Comparison of cone beam CT and low‐field MRI for diagnosing equine foot and pastern lesions

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background While standing magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) of the foot has been extensively studied, descriptions of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) abnormalities in this region are sparse. Objective This study compares CBCT and sMRI for diagnosing lesions in the equine foot and pastern, aiming to assess the complementarity of these ...
