0001 The recent discovery of a Hobbit-like hominid on the Indonesian island of Flores was startling in some respects—its rather modern existence, for one—but it represents a classic case of Darwinian evolution. For reasons that are not entirely clear, when animals make their way to isolated islands, they tend to evolve relatively quickly toward an outsized or pint-sized version of their mainlan...

Structural anomalies of the styloid chain were described more than 300 years ago by anatomists. In 1937, the American otolaryngologist Watt W. Eagle wrote a series of reports on this subject and its clinical significance. Because of his interest, the symptoms related to the anomalies of the stylohyoid chain became known as Eagle’s syndrome. Eagle himself acknowledged 3 other surgeons who identi...

In this paper we present the eagle-­‐i system architecture, which was designed for data entry and storage of semantically enabled and ontol-­‐ ogy-­‐driven data about biomedical research resources. We describe the content, the features and some of the applications currently leveraging ...

Competition among species with similar ecological requirements may preclude species coexistence. However, species with similar requirements may coexist under determinate environmental conditions. Major effort is being dedicated to conserve the golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) and Bonelli’s eagle (Hieraaetus fasciatus) in Spain, two raptors with similar ecological requirements. This work analyse...

UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION Eagle syndrome is a condition characterized by an elongated (>3cm) styloid process with associated symptoms of recurrent facial or throat pain. In this report we present a case of Eagle syndrome exhibiting the typical findings of glossopharyngeal nerve involvement, as well as unusual involvement of the trigeminal nerve. Notably, this patient developed a classical trig...
