Regional variability in skull sexual dimorphism: Olive baboons, blue monkeys, and vervets confirm the posterior region of the skull and the snout as opposite extremes of sex differences in Old World monkeys

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study, alongside prior work on crab‐eating macaques with O'Higgins, investigates regional variation in skull sexual dimorphism across different species of Old World monkeys. Findings reveal consistent patterns: the posterior skull regions (mandibular vertical ramus, chondrocranium and, possibly, the cranial vault) exhibit lower dimorphism,

Major Vault Protein/Lung Resistance-Related Protein: A Novel Biomarker for Inflammation and Acute Infections

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Introduction: Vault particles are large cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein particles that participate in inflammation. The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic and prognostic value of major vault protein (MVP) in patients with inflammation, in order

Morphological adaptations of cervical vertebrae in plunge‐diving sulids

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Foraging strategy frequently drives morphological diversification in birds. The plunge‐diving behavior of certain species makes the functional and ecological trade‐offs of variation in cervical vertebrae an especially intriguing question. This study compares cervical vertebrae across five plunge‐diving species and two non‐plunge‐diving species,

The Gdańsk Builder Bartel Ranisch (1648–1710?): New Research on His Biography and Architectural Activity

open access: yesBiuletyn Historii Sztuki
This essay presents the builder Bartel Ranisch, who is the author of one of the most exceptional books on architecture to appear in Europe in the 17th century. Titled Beschreibung Aller Kirchen­-Gebäude der Stadt Dantzig and published in 1695, it was an

Biomechanical strain patterns in Meckel's cartilage underlie mandibular variation in FGFR2 mouse models

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Sequence variations in fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) are associated with craniosynostosis syndromes, disrupting craniofacial development, yet early mandibular alterations remain poorly characterized. This study examined Meckel's cartilage (MC) and mandibular morphology in mouse models of Apert (Fgfr2+/P253R) and Crouzon ...

Burial Crypts and Vaults in Britain and Ireland: a Biographical Approach

open access: yesActa Universitatis Lodziensis: Folia Archaeologica, 2020
The range of post-medieval burial structures found in Britain and Ireland defined by Julian Litten in 1985 are reviewed in the light of more recent discoveries.

FROM LIDAR DATA TOWARDS HBIM FOR STRUCTURAL EVALUATION [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019
In HBIM processes, the extraction of geometric components from 3D point clouds data can sometimes be a complex process. The so-called Scan to BIM process has been widely utilized: deriving 3D models from point clouds often a local modelling of geometric ...

Staged Revision Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty to Functional Hemiarthroplasty With Retained Humeral Implant: A Salvage Technique

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract With the increased incidence and indications for reverse total shoulder arthroplasty, the increased need for revision shoulder arthroplasty also continues to rise. Therefore, revision strategies and techniques are essential to optimize patient outcomes and preserve function, particularly in the challenges of glenoid failure, poor glenoid bone ...

Flourishing through adventure learning: A (semi)cautionary tale

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies suggest that adventure learning can develop children's cognitive skills and promote social and emotional learning. However, evidence is needed as to whether the design of adventure learning—school‐based or external/residential—plays a role in that development/promotion, and whether learning gains are maintained.

Renaissance vaults: geometry, nurbs and computational opportunities for reconstruction

open access: yesDisegnare con, 2021
Creating an interpretative geometric representation of architectural shapes is crucial to learn the essence of any architecture, to preserve it and to hand it down through the ages to our descendants.
