The total sample consists of 4080 skulls, dating from the Neolithic to the C 17th\u2014C 18th a.d., investigated visually, under magnification and radiologically. Eight cases of clinical otosclerosis and 22 of auditory exostoses were identified. The general epidemiology of otosclerosis (0.19 \u00b1 0.08 per cent) was established to be similar to contemporary populations. This suggests that there are no new aetiological factors attributable to our modern society. Clear diminution of the incidence of auditory exostoses from the 1st to the 2nd millenium A.D. (3.46 \u00b1 0.76 per cent, against 0.06 \u00b1 0.04 per cent, p &lt;0.001) and definite sexual differences (males: 1.21 \u00b1 0.28 per cent; females: 0.17 \u00b1 0.10 per cent, p&lt;0.001) were also noted. In general, auditory exostoses were found much more frequently than in recent populations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0022215100123540","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,30]],"date-time":"2007-11-30T05:17:02Z","timestamp":1196399822000},"page":"489-491","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Clinical otosclerosis and auditory exostoses in ancient Europeans (investigation of Lithuanian paleoosteological samples)"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"107","author":[{"given":"Virgilijus","family":"Sakalinskas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rimantas","family":"Jankauskas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,6,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref010","first-page":"1358","volume-title":"Otolaryngology","volume":"2","author":"Paparella","year":"1980"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref007","first-page":"5","article-title":"The torus auditivus: a reappraisal","volume":"53","author":"Mann","year":"1986","journal-title":"Paleopathology Newsletter"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref005","first-page":"341","volume-title":"Taryb\u00b8 Lietuvos encikiopedija","volume":"2","author":"Kau\u0161yla","year":"1986"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref004","first-page":"401","volume-title":"Scott-Brown's Otolaryngology","volume":"3","author":"Hammond","year":"1987"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref006","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330710403"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref002","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/203645"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref008","volume-title":"Diseases of the Ear","author":"Mawson","year":"1979"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref009","first-page":"405","volume-title":"Scott-Brown's Diseases of the Ear, Nose and Throat 4th Edition","volume":"2","author":"Morrison","year":"1979"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref012","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/oa.1390010208"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref001","first-page":"361","article-title":"Epigenetic variation in the human cranium","volume":"101","author":"Berry","year":"1967","journal-title":"Journal of Anatomy"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref011","first-page":"198","volume-title":"7th Congress of Lithuanian physicians","author":"Sakalinskas","year":"1990"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref003","volume-title":"Pathology of the Ear","author":"Friedmann","year":"1974"},{"key":"S0022215100123540_ref013","volume-title":"Radiology of the Ear, Nose and Throat, Thieme","author":"Valvassori","year":"1984"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Laryngology &amp; Otology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S0022215100123540","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,15]],"date-time":"2019-05-15T18:50:50Z","timestamp":1557946250000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S0022215100123540\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1993,6]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1993,6]]}},"alternative-id":["S0022215100123540"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s0022215100123540","relation":{},"ISSN":["0022-2151","1748-5460"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0022-2151","type":"print"},{"value":"1748-5460","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1993,6]]}}}
