- 法医科学 法医科学 法医科学
背景情况:
- 关节突出倾斜 (AEI) 是关节 (TMJ) 形态学的一个关键参数.
- 了解AEI的变异可以提供对人口中潜在的进化适应,饮食习惯和遗传多样性的见解.
- 之前的研究已经在各种群体中探索了AEI,但在不同的祖先和现代人群之间进行直接比较,例如克罗地亚人和美国人的头骨,并不常见.
研究的目的:
- 为了确定和比较不同的克罗地亚和美国头骨组之间的关节突出倾斜 (AEI) 值.
- 调查祖先,地理来源,性别和年龄对AEI的潜在影响.
- 评估不同测量方法对AEI确定的影响.
主要方法:
- 该研究分析了来自各种克罗地亚 (中世纪早期,中世纪后期,当代) 和美国 (伊利诺伊州,肯塔基州,当代非洲裔美国人,美国白人) 群体的210个人类干头骨.
- 用两种不同的方法 (M1和M2) 测量了关节突起倾斜度 (AEI),测量了来自关节突起的虚拟印记的五个角截面.
- 使用p<0.05的显著程度进行了统计分析,以比较不同组和测量方法之间的AEI值.
主要成果:
- 在不同头骨,身体侧面,性别或年龄组 (p>0.05) 中没有观察到AEI值的统计学上显著差异.
- 使用测量方法M2获得的AEI值与使用测量方法M1 (p<0.05) 获得的AEI值相比,在统计学上显著地更高.

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
1.8K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Cranial Bones: Lateral View
1.9K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Overview of the Skull
4.0K
The cranium (skull) is the skeletal structure of the head that supports the face and protects the brain. It is subdivided into the facial bones and the brain case, or cranial vault. The facial bones underlie the facial structures, form the nasal cavity, enclose the eyeballs, and support the teeth of the upper and lower jaws.
The cranial vault surrounds and protects the brain and houses the middle and inner ear structures. This cavity is bounded superiorly by the rounded top of the skull, which...

Articulations of the Vertebral Column
1.7K
In addition to being held together by the intervertebral discs, adjacent vertebrae also articulate with each other at synovial joints formed between the superior and inferior articular processes called zygapophysial joints (facet joints). These are plane joints that provide for only limited motions between the vertebrae. The orientation of the articular processes at these joints varies in different regions of the vertebral column and serves to determine the types of motions available in each...

Bone Markings
5.0K
Bones have various surface features that help form joints and attach to other soft tissues. Depending on the function, bone markings are categorized into articulating projections, processes for attachment, depressions, and openings.
Articulating Projections
Articulating projections are found where two bones meet to form a joint. These structures are usually found at the ends of bones. The largest articulation is a rounded projection called the head, supported by a narrow neck at the ends of...

Sutures of the Skull
5.9K
The human skull is composed of several bones that come together to protect the brain and support the structures of the face. The junctions where these bones meet are called sutures.
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...
