Normal biometric ranges for fetal growth in a captive breeding baboon (Papio hamadryas) colony are described. Measurements include crownrump length, biparietal diameter, binocular distance, head circumference, abdominal circumference, femur length and amniotic fluid index. The pattern of fetal growth is compared with other baboon subspecies and man. The uses and limitations of such data for breeding colony management and optimum utilisation of experimentally derived data are discussed.

Sequence and Chronology of Permanent Teeth Eruption in 5-18-Year-Old School Children of Chennai and the Influence of Sex, BMI, and Socio-Economic Status.
Am J Hum Biol

Department of Public Health Dentistry, Tamilnadu Govt Dental College, Chennai, India.
Objectives: This study aimed to determine the sequence and eruption chronology of permanent teeth in school children and adolescents of Chennai and compare the findings with an existing standard table. Additionally, the study also attempted to explore the influence of sex, body mass index (BMI), and socioeconomic status (SES) on tooth eruption patterns.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was designed, and 12,650 children aged 5-18 years were selected from thirty-five schools using a multistage random sampling method.
The relationships among food neophobia, mediterranean diet adherence, and eating disorder risk among university students: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Food neophobia, characterized by the fear of unfamiliar foods, can be influenced by environmental, cultural, and genetic factors, leading to decreased consumption of novel or diverse foods. Understanding the impact of Mediterranean diet adherence and eating disorders on dietary behaviors is crucial, particularly for young adults who are developing lifelong eating patterns.
Methods: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships among food neophobia, Mediterranean diet adherence, and eating disorders in university students aged 18-24 years.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stability of small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) when ascending from near sea level to an altitude of 3874 m. The visual acuity (VA), intraocular pressure (IOP), spherical equivalent refraction (SER) and biometric parameters of 20 normal subjects (40 eyes, controls) and 36 subjects who underwent corneal refractive surgery (35 eyes with SMILE and 36 eyes with LASIK) were examined in Chongqing (C, 500 m above sea level) and 7-10 days after a collective travel to Shigatse (S, 3874 m above sea level). SER and corneal thickness (CT) were choosed as main indicators of the stability of corneal refractive surgery at high altitude.

This paper proposes a general approach for handling multiple contrast tests for normally distributed data in the presence of partial heteroskedasticity. In contrast to the usual case of complete heteroskedasticity, the treatments belong to subgroups according to their variances. Treatments within these subgroups are homoskedastic, whereas treatments of different subgroups are heteroskedastic.
