Title: Variations in the method of the division of the hypoglossal canal in Sienese skulls of known age and sex. Author: Bastianini A, Guidotti A, Hauser G, De Stefano GF. Journal: Acta Anat (Basel); 1985; 123(1):21-4. PubMed ID: 4050304. Abstract: In 300 Sienese skulls of known age and sex (146 male and 154 female) 6 modes of expression of bipartition of the hypoglossal canal were studied on the basis of a new scheme of notation that takes into account gradually increasing intensity. The analysis of data, including also the traditional method of notation confirms the criticisms expressed by various authors on the loss of information when the variability of this trait is neglected, especially with reference to age-dependent changes (hyperostotic effects).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
