Is cranial anatomy indicative of fossoriality? A case study of the mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui.

Determining the ecology of fossil species presents considerable challenges due to the often fragmentary preservation of specimens. The mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui from the Jurassic of China is known only from the cranium and mandible but may have had a fossorial lifestyle. It shares morphological similarities with talpid moles and soricid shrews and is closely related to other fossorial mammaliaforms.

This study aimed to document the angulation, inclination, and facial anatomical characteristics of teeth in a select South African population to determine if there are any population norms. Digital intra-oral scans were used, to analyze the morphology of teeth and measure the facial clinical crown. : A quantitative observational research design with 60 3D intra-oral scans of a select South African population group was used.

Anatomy Department, Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University, Cairo, Egypt.
Background: Atorvastatin (ATO) is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor used to lower blood cholesterol, but it causes renal injury in high doses. Thymoquinone (TQ), is a natural antioxidant that has been shown to protect the kidney through its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, & antiapoptotic, effects.
Objective: The current study aimed to investigate whether posttreatment TQ could reverse ATOinduced renal injury, and the possible mechanism of action by which TQ produced such an effect.
Association of individual-based morphological brain network alterations with cognitive impairment in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Department of Radiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Guangzhou, China.
Objective: To investigate the altered characteristics of cortical morphology and individual-based morphological brain networks in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), as well as the neural network mechanisms underlying cognitive impairment in T2DM.
Methods: A total of 150 T2DM patients and 130 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited in this study. The study used voxel- and surface-based morphometric analyses to investigate morphological alterations (including gray matter volume, cortical thickness, cortical surface area, and localized gyrus index) in the brains of T2DM patients.
A morphometric analysis of the cranial base in trigonocephaly.

Department of Clinical Anatomy, School of Laboratory Medicine and Medical Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, South Africa. Electronic address:
Trigonocephaly occurs when the metopic suture fuses prematurely. Few studies have documented the morphometry of the entire anterior cranium in trigonocephaly and not on the morphometric changes to the cranial fossae alone. Thus, this study aimed to determine and compare the dimensions of the anterior cranial fossa (ACF) in trigonocephaly and control groups.
