A mathematical model for scientifically defining the class characteristics of the human anterior maxilla—Part 1: The dental arch

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Bitemark recognition reliability in forensics has been criticized for lacking objectivity and empirical support. Despite doubts about classifying these injuries as bitemarks, pattern injuries must still be legally documented and analyzed. Forensic odontology can benefit from aesthetic dentistry by adopting metric analysis methods to define ...

Assessing the effectiveness of alternate light sources in the search for skeletal remains

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Many search and recovery operations for human skeletal remains are unsuccessful due to difficulties recognizing bones in outdoor environments even when evidence indicates the last known whereabouts of missing individuals. Though the collagen component of bone is known to emit fluorescence, this property has not been leveraged consistently ...

Leveraging Synteny to Generate Reference Genomes for Conservation: Assembling the Genomes of Hector's and Māui Dolphins

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Escalating concern regarding the impacts of reduced genetic diversity on the conservation of endangered species has spurred efforts to obtain chromosome‐level genomes through consortia such as the Vertebrate Genomes Project. However, assembling reference genomes for many threatened species remains challenging due to difficulties obtaining ...

Factors that influence the decision to release rehabilitated koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) to fire‐affected home sites

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
This study appraises recent research to critically evaluate knowledge on the factors that influence decisions around the release of rehabilitated koalas to fire‐affected home sites. Availability of koala release sites could be compromised at times in the future by the increasing incidence of large and intense bushfires due to climate change.

ERNEST COST action overview on the (patho)physiology of GPCRs and orphan GPCRs in the nervous system

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of cell surface receptors that play a critical role in nervous system function by transmitting signals between cells and their environment. They are involved in many, if not all, nervous system processes, and their dysfunction has been linked to various neurological disorders representing important

Paleo‐evo‐devo implications of a revised conceptualization of enameloids and enamels

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the origin and evolution of the mineralized skeleton is crucial for unravelling vertebrate history. However, several limitations hamper our progress. The first obstacle is the lack of uniformity and clarity in the literature for the definition of the tissues of concern, especially of enameloid(s) and enamel(s), resulting in ...

Modelling Predictors of Homophily on Perceived Oral Health Status Among Social Network Ties in a Population of Public Housing Residents

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Individual behaviours are often shared within social networks (homophily), suggesting network‐level interventions hold promise for health promotion. Yet, little is known about oral health homophily. This study aimed to identify individual‐ and network‐based predictors of oral health homophily among individual's (ego) social networks of

What are the main surgical and non-surgical techniques of the acceleration of orthodontic tooth movement?

open access: closedl Orthodontie Française, 2021
Different surgical and non-surgical techniques have been developed in order to reduce the duration of orthodontic treatment. Regarding surgical techniques, corticotomies are widely used. The micro-osteoperforation technique (MOP), in addition to the piezocision technique, have been developed to provide minimally invasive surgery as an alternative to ...

Assessing accelerated tooth movement techniques on their own catabolic merits: a review

open access: closedJournal of the World Federation of Orthodontists, 2018
Abstract Background and Purpose Accelerated tooth movement is facilitated by intentional injury of the periodontium followed by alveolar bone turnover, and bone biomarkers can be used to monitor bone turnover activity. The purpose of this literature review was to evaluate various surgical acceleration techniques using catabolic bone biomarkers to ...

Effect of corticotomy techniques accelerating orthodontic tooth movement on root resorption

open access: closedBeijing da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Peking University. Health sciences, 2021
In recent years, developing new methods to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) has attracted extensive attention in the field of orthodontic clinical and scientific research. It reduces orthodontic treatment time and risks. Over the past, various approaches have been done to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement.
