Cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes in evolutionary perspective: a critical role for helminths?.

Evolution, medicine, and public health

Gurven MD, Trumble BC, Stieglitz J, Blackwell AD, Michalik DE, Finch CE, Kaplan HS.
PMID: 27666719
Evol Med Public Health. 2016 Jan;2016(1):338-357. doi: 10.1093/emph/eow028. Epub 2016 Sep 25.

Heart disease and type 2 diabetes are commonly believed to be rare among contemporary subsistence-level human populations, and by extension prehistoric populations. Although some caveats remain, evidence shows these diseases to be unusual among well-studied hunter-gatherers and other subsistence...

Salivary microbiomes of indigenous Tsimane mothers and infants are distinct despite frequent premastication.

PeerJ

Han CS, Martin MA, Dichosa AEK, Daughton AR, Frietze S, Kaplan H, Gurven MD, Alcock J.
PMID: 27833819
PeerJ. 2016 Nov 03;4:e2660. doi: 10.7717/peerj.2660. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Premastication, the transfer of pre-chewed food, is a common infant and young child feeding practice among the Tsimane, forager-horticulturalists living in the Bolivian Amazon. Research conducted primarily with Western populations has shown that infants harbor distinct oral microbiota...

Immune function during pregnancy varies between ecologically distinct populations.

Evolution, medicine, and public health

Hové C, Trumble BC, Anderson AS, Stieglitz J, Kaplan H, Gurven MD, Blackwell AD.
PMID: 32983537
Evol Med Public Health. 2020 Jul 03;2020(1):114-128. doi: 10.1093/emph/eoaa022. eCollection 2020.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Among placental mammals, females undergo immunological shifts during pregnancy to accommodate the fetus (i.e. fetal tolerance). Fetal tolerance has primarily been characterized within post-industrial populations experiencing evolutionarily novel conditions (e.g. reduced pathogen exposure), which may shape...

Age-independent increases in male salivary testosterone during horticultural activity among Tsimane forager-farmers.

Evolution and human behavior : official journal of the Human Behavior and Evolution Society

Trumble BC, Cummings DK, O'Connor KA, Holman DJ, Smith EA, Kaplan HS, Gurven MD.
PMID: 24187482
Evol Hum Behav. 2013 Sep 01;34(5). doi: 10.1016/j.evolhumbehav.2013.06.002.

Testosterone plays an important role in mediating male reproductive trade-offs in many vertebrate species, augmenting muscle and influencing behavior necessary for male-male competition and mating-effort. Among humans, testosterone may also play a key role in facilitating male provisioning of...

Rapidly declining body temperature in a tropical human population.

Science advances

Gurven M, Kraft TS, Alami S, Adrian JC, Linares EC, Cummings D, Rodriguez DE, Hooper PL, Jaeggi AV, Gutierrez RQ, Suarez IM, Seabright E, Kaplan H, Stieglitz J, Trumble B.

Normal human body temperature (BT) has long been considered to be 37.0°C. Yet, BTs have declined over the past two centuries in the United States, coinciding with reductions in infection and increasing life expectancy. The generality of and reasons...
