Phylogenomic analysis of ultraconserved elements clarifies relationships and morphological evolution in Cryptoplacoidea (Mollusca: Polyplacophora)

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Targeted enrichment of ultraconserved elements (UCEs) is a powerful tool for resolving phylogeny in groups with limited morphological or molecular data. Here, we use UCEs to reconstruct the first comprehensive phylogeny of the chiton superfamily Cryptoplacoidea, including museum material up to 133 years old.

Unravelling the phylogeny of armadillos and their kin (Mammalia, Xenarthra, Cingulata) combining morphological, molecular, and stratigraphic data

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Cingulata, a major lineage of Xenarthra, comprises extinct and extant armoured placental mammals that diversified throughout the Cenozoic. Despite extensive study, phylogenetic hypotheses based on morphological and molecular data remain incongruent, and no total evidence analysis has been conducted. Here, we integrate the largest morphological

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Three‐Year Follow‐Up of Clinical, Radiographic, and Patient‐Reported Outcomes for Zirconia and Titanium Implants in the Posterior Region: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare the 3‐year clinical, radiographic, esthetic, and patient‐reported outcomes of zirconia (Zr) and titanium (Ti) implants placed in posterior sites in a randomized, controlled within‐subject design. Materials and Methods Forty‐two patients each received one Zr and one Ti implant.

Short Dental Implants as Strategic Support for Removable Partial Dentures in Mandibular Free‐End Situations: A 3‐Year Prospective Cohort Study

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to assess the mid‐term clinical performance of short implants as strategic support for mandibular removable partial dentures (RPDs) with free‐end situations. Methods Subjects wearing lower RPDs in Kennedy Class I situations received two supporting posterior implants.
