The purpose of this review is to provide a synoptic, critical evaluation of the evidence of, and
potential etiological factors contributing to, sex differences in the expression of enamel …

Physiological stress, such as malnutrition or illness, can disrupt normal enamel growth,
resulting in linear enamel hypoplasias (LEHs). Although ecological factors may contribute to …

This study uses macroscopic and microscopic methods to analyze the expression of linear
enamel hypoplasia (LEH) in Plio‐Pleistocene South African hominins. LEH is a …

This paper presents new data on enamel hypoplasia in the deciduous canine teeth of great
apes. The enamel defect under consideration is known as localized hypoplasia of primary …

Most studies report a high prevalence of linear enamel hypoplasia (LEH) in the great apes
relative to other nonhuman primates and some human populations. It is unclear if this …

This study describes the expression of linear enamel hypoplasia (LEH), a sensitive dental
indicator of physiological stress, in Thailand gibbons (Hylobates lar carpenteri). Previous …

This paper extends observations by Lukacs ([1999] Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. 110: 351–
363;[2001] Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. 116: 199–208) of localized hypoplasia of the primary …

We describe a developmental defect that manifests as a mild constricted “waist” in anterior
teeth from seven of nine chimpanzee individuals from Taï National Park, Côte D'Ivoire. The …

Abstract The Coc Muoi fauna provides a good example of the type of tropical mammalian
communities that existed in northern Vietnam during the late Middle Pleistocene. The first …

A geographically and temporally widespread pattern of repetitive episodes of developmental
stress, recorded as furrows of linear enamel hypoplasia (LEH) in most recent and fossil …
