Testing for Burden in a Macroevolutionary System

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Evolutionary changes in the fundamental components of the bivalve body plan are not restricted to the early part of their evolutionary history. ABSTRACT The traits defining organismal body plans are expected to acquire burden, approaching invariance as they accumulate characters that depend on them, developmentally and functionally.

3D Printing a Clinically Available Solution From Plaster‐Based Positives in Superficial Radiation Therapy

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study compares two techniques for creating lead shielding masks to replace the current process for superficial/orthovoltage facial radiotherapy: Plaster Cast Positive Mould (PCPM), CT Scanned 3D Print (CT3DP), and Optical Scan 3D Print (OS3DP). CT3DP was found to be more accurate and preferred over OS3DP.

Trans‐Cervical Ultrasound Imaging of the Adult Palatine Tonsils

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Ultrasound imaging of the adult palatine tonsils using a trans‐cervical approach can be used to assess the tonsillar region for intratonsillar and peritonsillar abscesses. An understanding of the sonographic anatomy, technique and tonsillar pathology is required to perform and interpret imaging and inform patient management.

Biomaterials for resolution of peri‐implantitis: Consensus report of Workgroup 2 of the IADR Implantology Research Group Best Evidence Consensus Symposium on Peri‐Implant Disease and Its Treatment

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a destructive disease affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants. Biomaterials may be applied during surgical treatment to reconstruct bony defects and support soft tissue healing. However, current evidence is unclear if these treatments increase the likelihood of peri‐implantitis resolution.

Effectiveness of nonsurgical re‐instrumentation of residual pockets as step 3 of periodontal therapy: A field study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The study aims to analyze the effectiveness of nonsurgical re‐instrumentation of residual pockets as step 3 of periodontal therapy and the stability of treatment outcomes at 18 months. Methods The study sample consisted of 489 patients diagnosed and treated nonsurgically for periodontitis.
