Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

Boreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

Tooth abrasion in unilateral posterior crossbite in the deciduous dentition.

The Angle orthodontist, 2002
The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of abrasion in posterior teeth of subjects with unilateral posterior crossbite in the deciduous dentition. A group of 54 untreated subjects in deciduous dentition (test group, TG) was selected from a parent sample of 1500 patients from the files of the Department of Orthodontics of the University of ...

Factors influencing cervical abrasion among school going adolescents - An analytical cross-sectional study in Puducherry

Introduction: Cervical abrasion is wearing out of the tooth caused by external mechanical forces on the tooth surface other than tooth-tooth contact. This non-carious tooth surface loss most commonly occurs due to over brushing.

The Early Upper Palaeolithic open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg, Germany, in the context of the northern central European Aurignacian

Boreas, EarlyView.
Our knowledge of the Early Upper Palaeolithic occupation in northern central Europe is very limited, and recent research at the open‐air site of Friedrichsdorf‐Seulberg in Hesse, Germany, provides important new information on the Aurignacian. The site is rather small (26.5 m2) and spatial analysis identified a central hearth with two associated ...

Translating Observational Data Into Public Health Action: Reducing Early Childhood Caries Burden Related to Socioeconomic Disparities

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The “valley of death” between research and practice remains a major challenge. The five‐stage Translational Research framework (TR1‐TR5) provides a pathway, moving evidence into real‐world impact. Traditionally, Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) dominate TR stages, yet they are often impractical in public health.
