Settlementality

open access: yesJournal of Empirical Legal Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Is settlement of civil litigation good or bad for the legal system? Should we have more or less of it? Should settlement have a private or public purpose? Legal scholars and lawyers have considered these questions for decades, but very little is known about the views of ordinary people.

Size, not phylogeny, explains the morphology of the endosseous labyrinth in the crown clade Crocodylia

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 558-574, April 2025.
Here, we present the most complete dataset to date on the endosseous labyrinths of extant crocodylians. Using 3D geometric morphometrics, we show that allometry constitutes a major contributor of the shape variation of the crocodylian endosseous labyrinths and that the development of this structure is likely linked to the braincase conformation, in all

Semicircular canal morphology in Rodentia and its relationship to locomotion

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Here, we present a selection of rodent inner ear 3D models in the lateral view, with rodents from seven locomotor categories (left to right: fossorial, semifossorial, semiaquatic, terrestrial, ricochetal, arboreal, and gliding). Semicircular canal (SCC) morphology, including radius of curvature and shape, can be differentiated between specialized forms

A hypothetical proposal for association between migraine and Meniere's disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Meniere's disease (MD) is a chronic condition affecting the inner ear whose precise etiology is currently unknown. We propose the hypothesis that MD is a migraine-related phenomenon which may have implications for future treatment options for both ...

Morphometric study of the bony labyrinth of the inner ear in the European moles Talpa europaea, Talpa occidentalis, and Talpa aquitania

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The study investigates the shape of the semicircular canals in the inner ear of three sister mole species—Talpa europaea, Talpa aquitania, and Talpa occidentalis—using geometric morphometrics on 58 specimens. It finds both interspecific and intraspecific variability in canal morphology, but no evidence of sexual dimorphism.

Advantages of CO2 laser use in surgical management of otosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background. Otosclerosis is a progressive osteo-destructive disorder of the bony labyrinth in which the fixation of the stapes causes the hearing loss.

Practicing Power‐Sharing: How Political Adversaries (Fail to) Rule Jointly

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Why does power‐sharing lead to peace and effective governance in some cases but not others? Whereas the current literature on this question predominantly focuses on institutional design, this article argues that more attention should be given to the everyday activities, routines and processes through which power‐sharing is operated.

Plasticity of histamine H3 receptor expression and binding in the vestibular nuclei after labyrinthectomy in rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Background: In rat, deafferentation of one labyrinth (unilateral labyrinthectomy) results in a characteristic syndrome of ocular and motor postural disorders (e.g., barrel rotation, circling behavior, and spontaneous nystagmus). Behavioral recovery (e.g.,

Surgical access to separate branches of the cat vestibular nerve [PDF]

open access: yes
A posteroventral approach for access to separate branches of the cat vestibular nerve is presented which permits simultaneous surgical access to the ampullary and otolithic nerves.
