1.
Hassan B, Sylvester A, Wescott D, Cunningham D, Elegbede A, Manson P, et al.
Plast Reconstr Surg . 2024 Jul; PMID: 38967623
Facial buttresses are supportive bony structures of the facial skeleton that form a thick, strong, and protective framework for the face. Surgical fixation may be required to restore morphology and...

Sylvester A, Zbijewski W, Shi G, Meckel L, Chu E, Cunningham D, et al.
Anat Rec (Hoboken) . 2024 Jan; 307(8):2846-2857. PMID: 38284320
Bone functional adaptation is routinely invoked to interpret skeletal morphology despite ongoing debate regarding the limits of the bone response to mechanical stimuli. The wide variation in human body mass...

Horbaly H, Hubbe M, Sylvester A, Steadman D, Auerbach B
Am J Biol Anthropol . 2023 Sep; 182(3):388-400. PMID: 37702986
Objectives: Synovial joints in human limbs strike a balance between mobility, stability, and articular fit, yet little is known about how these conflicting demands pattern intraspecific variation in articular shape....

Kramer P, Feuerriegel E, Lautzenheiser S, Sylvester A
Evol Hum Sci . 2023 Aug; 4:e6. PMID: 37588892
Musculoskeletal models, like all theoretical models of physical processes, depend on the assumptions needed to construct the model. For musculoskeletal models, these assumptions include, among other things, the kinematic data,...

Harper C, Roach C, Goldstein D, Sylvester A
Am J Biol Anthropol . 2023 Jun; 181(4):545-563. PMID: 37300336
Objectives: Differences in talar articular morphology relative to locomotion have recently been found within Pan and Gorilla. Whole-bone talar morphology within, and shared variation among, Pan and Gorilla (sub)species, however,...
6.
Kramer P, Sylvester A
PLoS One . 2023 Apr; 18(4):e0284450. PMID: 37071649
Despite a paucity of physiological evidence, simplistic biomechanical analyses have led researchers to assume that humans who have wider hips use more energy to walk. Pitting biomechanical first principles against...

Goldstein D, Sylvester A
Am J Biol Anthropol . 2023 Feb; 181(1):10-28. PMID: 36808858
Objectives: Morphological variation in African ape carpals has been used to support the idea that Pan and Gorilla evolved knuckle-walking independently. Little work, however, has focused on the effect of...

Sylvester A, Wescott D, Cunningham D, Gleiber D
J Forensic Sci . 2023 Jan; 68(2):369-381. PMID: 36707925
The addition of information regarding obesity status to the forensic anthropological biological profile could significantly contribute to the identification of human skeletal remains since over 40% of the U.S. adult...

Ruff C, Sylvester A, Rahmawati N, Suriyanto R, Storm P, Aubert M, et al.
J Hum Evol . 2022 Sep; 172:103252. PMID: 36162353
Late Pleistocene hominin postcranial specimens from Southeast Asia are relatively rare. Here we describe and place into temporal and geographic context two partial femora from the site of Trinil, Indonesia,...

Llera Martin C, Rose K, Sylvester A
J Hum Evol . 2022 Feb; 164:103141. PMID: 35158085
Early Eocene primate postcranial bones from the Vastan lignite mine of Gujarat, India, have proven useful for understanding the haplorhine and strepsirrhine divergence. Previous analyses of material assigned to Asiadapidae...
