Abstract The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), characterized by symptoms of fever and pneumonia, was reported in Wuhan, China at the end of 2019 (Phelan, Katz, & Gostin, 2020). Given the likely transmission of COVID‐19 via droplets and aerosols during dental clinical procedures, dental practitioners are at a high risk of COVID‐19 infections (Ather, Patel, Ruparel, Diogenes, & Hargreaves, 2020). According to the guidelines of the Chinese Stomatological Association (CSA), dental clinics...

Abstract Purpose To assess the prevalence of sleep disturbances among university students and investigate potential correlated factors and their relative importance in quantifying sleep quality using advanced machine learning techniques. Methods A total of 1600 university students participated in this cross-sectional study. Sociodemographic information...
Abstract Background Increased sympathetic drive is the key determinant of systolic heart failure progression, being associated with worse functional status, arrhythmias, and increased mortality. Central sleep apnea is highly prevalent in systolic heart failure, and its effects on sympathovagal balance (SVB) and hemodynamics might depend on relative phase duration and background pathophysiology. ...

Abstract Background Root‐retained overdentures (OD) are one treatment option for partially edentulous patients. However, the available evidence regarding factors influencing abutment survival in root‐retained ODs is limited. Purpose This retrospective study includes clinical examinations and evaluates the survival rate of roots restored with precision attachments soldered to post‐and‐core (gold cap) retained ODs, analysed with respect to various patient‐ and prosthesis‐related factors....

Abstract During the process of percutaneous puncture, a medical needle with a beveled tip is usually inserted into a multilayered soft tissue, which contains a muscle layer, before it reaches the target. The robot-assisted needle insertion technology will help brachytherapists to perform high-accuracy seed implantation. To guide the automatic needle insertion, a mechanics-based model to simulate needle deflection caused by the asymmetric cutting force during insertion in the muscle-contained...
Abstract In this study, we propose an integrated tooth segmentation and gingival tissue deformation simulation framework used to design and evaluate the orthodontic treatment plan especially with invisible aligners. Firstly, the bio-characteristics information of the digital impression is analyzed quantitatively and demonstrated visually. With the derived information, the transitional regions of tooth-tooth and tooth-gingiva are extracted as the solution domain of the segmentation...

The genetic material that codes for bat adaptations and superpowers - such as the ability to fly, to use sound to move effortlessly in complete darkness, to tolerate and survive potentially deadly viruses, and to resist aging and cancer - has been revealed and published in Nature.

The seedlessness of grape derived from stenospermocarpy is one of the most prized traits of table or raisin grapes. It is controlled by a complex genetic system containing one dominant gene and multiple recessive genes. Here, we collected dense variation data from high-depth resequencing data of seeded, seedless, and wild relative grape genomes sequenced to > 37x mean depth. Variant calls were made using a modified variant calling pipeline that was suitable for highly diverse interspecific grape...

This month's edition of the Annals is an ode to asthma. Major advances in our understanding of asthma immunobiology have been translated into noted advances in asthma treatment over the last several years. A good example of change is the recently updated Global Initiative for Asthma guidelines, which now recommend the as-needed use of low-dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) in tandem with formoterol in both step 1 and step 2 interventions.1 One of this month's reviews by Cusack et al2 explores the...

The ASTHMAXcel mobile application has been linked to favorable outcomes among adult asthma patients.
Onset of severe urticaria has been linked to viral infections in both children, and adults1. We describe a morbidly obese male smoker patient with severe refractory urticaria, angioedema and systemic symptoms requiring oral glucocorticoids who was subsequently diagnosed with COVID-19 and had a successful outcome.Patient was 36-year-old obese male who presented with a complaint of acute urticaria. He awoke (day 0) with generalized erythema and pruritus and the gradual onset of generalized urticaria...

LaryngorhinootologieDOI: 10.1055/a-1200-1859 Hintergrund Die hygienische, richtliniengetreue Wiederaufbereitung von komplexen Instrumenten wie flexiblen HNO-Endoskopen mit und ohne Arbeitskanal stellt Kliniken und Praxen zunehmend vor große Herausforderungen. Ziel der vorliegenden Studie war es daher, die Kosten für ein wiederaufbereitbares Endoskopie-System mit 2 Einweg-Endoskopie-Systemen zu vergleichen und daraus mögliche strategische Überlegungen abzuleiten. Methodik Hierzu...
