The Afrotheria represent an early branching of placental mammals. Only two herpesviruses from Afrotheria have been previously identified, and the genus Proboscivirus in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae has been proposed for them. Six novel gammaherpesviruses were identified in four species in the superorder Afrotheria by detection and analysis of their DNA polymerase genes. Elephantid herpesviru...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the duration of the retention period in growing patients undergoing maxillary expansion and its relation with posterior crossbite stability. METHODS: Search strategies were executed for electronic databases Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed and Scopus, which were completed on January 15, 2016. The inclusion criteria included...

Long temporal records of Holocene wild mammal communities are essential to examine the role human impacts and climatic fluctuations in configuration modern ecosystems. We show that such can be assembled through extensive radiocarbon dating faunal remains obtained from biogenic cave deposits. dated 110 mammalian 19 different sites Judean Desert. use dates combination with archaeological survey d...

Background: Rapid maxillary expansion (RME) is a dentofacial orthopedic treatment often used to treat patients with narrow palate and transverse growth deficiency. Introduction: This leads correction of posterior dental crossbites, coordination the upper lower arches gaining arch perimeter in tooth size/arch size discrepancies. To stabilize results obtained RME limit or avoid relapse, use Trans...

The current study investigates neuron morphology in presumptive primary somatosensory (S1) and primary visual (V1) cortices of the Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris) as revealed by Golgi impregnation. Sirenians, including manatees, have an aquatic lifestyle, a large body size, and a relatively large lissencephalic brain. The present study examines neuron morphology in 3 cortical a...
