Porotic Hyperostosis and Cribra Orbitalia in the Adult Population of Tipu
… hyperostosis, and 60 individuals scored for cribra orbitalia focusing on differences by sex, age and sex interaction, and status by proxy of burial location. Overall, rates of the conditions were intermediate compared to those at other Maya sites. Younger adults had high, but still moderate …

Pastoralism, Agriculture, and Stress: A Comparative Analysis of Two 19th Century Qing Dynasty Populations
… location, and severity of porotic hyperostosis, cribra orbitalia, and linear enamel hypoplasia were assessed macroscopically. Results show that in all pathological conditions except cribra orbitalia, stress indicators were significantly more frequent in the agriculturalist Karluk sample than in …

Maize and Bone: An Evaluation and Expansion of a Proposed Model for the Differential Diagnosis of Pellagra in Human Remains
… alveolar bone loss, periostitis, osteoporosis, cribra orbitalia, and porotic hyperostosis. Results indicate that the pellagra sample had lower rates of caries and alveolar bone loss, and higher rates of periostitis of the tibia and fibula in relation to the comparison sample. No osteoporosis, …

A comparative analysis of human skeletal remains from Parowan Fremont, Virgin Anasazi, and Kayenta Anasazi archaeological sites
… Two other pathologies, porotic hyperostosis and cribra orbitalia, were most common among the Kayenta sample and least among the Parowan Fremont sample; From literature review and new data, much variability was found in mortuary practices. Unique practices were recognized such as red skeletal …

Lifestyle and Intestinal Parasite Infection in Northern Europe: A Study Comparing Clergy and the General Population of Cambridge and Belgium in 12th-18th Centuries
… are often associated with other factors, such as cribra orbitalia – a skeletal lesion commonly encountered in bioarchaeological investigations. It has been suggested that this is a causal relationship, hence the lesion can function as a proxy indicator for intestinal parasite infection. This study …

Dialogues with the dead : an osteological analysis of the palaeodemography and life history of the 18th and 19th century northern frontier in South Africa
… high frequencies of porotic hyperostosis and cribra orbitalia, skeletal manifestations of iron deficiency anaemia. Many theories about the occurrence of anaemia are discussed and the hypothesis that, in these individuals, it is related to infection by the smallpox virus is investigated through …

Growing Up in Tell el-Amarna: An Examination of Growth and Non-specific Stress Indicators in New Kingdom Children.
… Kingdom). Incidences of skeletal stress markers (cribra orbitalia, linear enamel hypoplasias, and porotic hyperostosis) and diseases of malnutrition (scurvy and rickets) were examined to obtain a more holistic representation of the general health of the comparative populations. Result showed that …

An assessment of the health status by non-specific stress indicators in early farming populations from central and southern Africa
… of non-specific stress indicators that included cribra orbitalia/porotic hyperostosis, Harris lines, linear enamel hypoplasias, subperiosteal bone lesions and dental diseases. The evidence from palaeopathology indicated that the environments played a major role in causing differences observed at …

Inside the Walls of the Asylum: Exploring the Lives of Individuals in the Mississippi State Asylum (1855-1935)
… nutritional deficiencies. Porotic hyperostosis, cribra orbitalia, and tentatively diagnosed pellagra also afflicted those analyzed. There was a lack of trauma within this sample, despite previous reports in the MSA population. Entheseal markers were largely gracile, perhaps due to patients being …

Bringing Childhood Health into Focus: Incorporating Survivors into Standard Methods of Investigation
… canal growth, linear enamel hypoplasia, cribra orbitalia, porotic hyperostosis, scurvy indicators and periosteal bone reactions were assessed for both groups. Overall, long bone growth generates the same interpretation of health for both non-survivors and survivors, and both groups …

Identity as process: an archaeological and osteological study of Early Bronze Age burials in northern England.
… which was seen osteologically through cribra orbitalia. Burial patterns demonstrate a continuum of events from the preparation of the body, through to sequences of burial and closure. Case studies are used to investigate identities over individual and site levels in different areas of …
