Article Synopsis
- The study examines the Yuzhniy Oleniy Ostrov burial site, focusing on group dynamics and regional interactions of the Mesolithic population in Northern Europe.
- Radiogenic strontium isotope analysis revealed that most individuals likely lived semi-permanently near Lake Onega, with only two showing evidence of having spent time outside the area.
- The findings suggest stable residential patterns for Late Mesolithic foragers while also highlighting connections to broader communication networks, indicating some long-distance interactions.

Fluorotelomer-based acrylate polymers and surfactants used to grease-proof food contact paper (FCP) are potential sources of dietary exposure to perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Food contact substances (FCS) containing polyfluorinated long-chains (≥C8) were voluntarily removed by their manufacturers from the U.S.

This study aimed to compare long-term patient-reported outcomes (PROs) between SC and CVR procedures at a single institution using the validated FACE-Q Craniofacial module.
Methods: Patients older than or equal to 8 years of age and parents of patients younger than 8 years of age who underwent SC or CVR for single-suture craniosynostosis were eligible.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate how congenital anomalies at the atlanto-occipital joint affect the stability of the craniovertebral junction (CVJ) in children with Chiari malformation type I and syringomyelia, focusing on the prevalence of certain anomalies and their connection to occipitocervical fusion (OCF) after surgery.
- Researchers analyzed data from patients in the Park-Reeves Syringomyelia Research Consortium, comparing those who underwent posterior fossa decompression with OCF to those who only had posterior fossa decompression, while ensuring both groups were similar in age, sex, and symptoms.
- Results indicated that the group which underwent both procedures had significantly higher angles
