Early impact of agropastoral activities and climate on the littoral landscape of Corsica since mid-Holocene.

A multidisciplinary study (geomorphology, sedimentology and palynology) shows that the landscapes of the southwest coast of Corsica have been deeply modified by humans and the climate since 3000 BC. Significant and rapid landscape transformations are recorded between the Chalcolithic and the Middle Bronze Ages (3000-1300 BC). Several major (2.

Primary stability and osseointegration: preliminary clinical results with a tapered diminishing-thread implant.

Due to their success and predictability, osseointegrated implants are used with increasing frequency for the prosthetic restoration of edentulous patients. Analysis of implant failures, however, enables clinicians to improve the clinical results achieved with this modality. While the literature discusses varying etiological factors (e.
