Objective: Our primary objective is to re-visit the tuberculosis and leprosy cross-immunity. hypothesis through the careful integration of immunology and paleopathology. Methods: Using an integrated theoretical analysis that evaluates clinical litera...

American journal of physical anthropology, 168(3), 530-542. https://doi.org/10.1002/ajpa.23769

Objectives: Inflammatory periosteal reaction (IPR) on the visceral surfaces of the ribs has been used in bioarchaeology as an indicator of lower respiratory tract disease. This article presents a detailed method for recording IPR on the ribs, even th...
