A multicenter, controlled, randomized trial of home‐applied dual‐light photodynamic therapy in stage I to III periodontitis (LumoNorth2022 study)

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis is a widespread, chronic infection‐triggered inflammatory condition in which professional supportive periodontal care (SPC) and daily oral hygiene form the backbone to reduce the disease activity. Light‐based treatments have shown promising antibacterial effects, but their potential for routine home use has not been ...

Shaping the research agenda of pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology, and nutrition: The proposal from an Italian Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (SIGENP) expert group

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract The Italian Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (SIGENP) recognized the need to define research priorities and identify knowledge gaps to guide future investigations in pediatric digestive health. Following international examples, SIGENP aimed to provide a structured framework that aligns scientific innovation with ...

Abduction and adduction malpositioned lateral radiographs cannot be used for proper assessment of the posterior tibial slope

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare medial posterior tibial slope (mPTS) measurements on abduction/adduction malpositioned versus properly positioned lateral knee radiographs within the same patients. We hypothesized that malpositioning would significantly alter mPTS values and potentially change surgical classification at the commonly used 12° threshold for ...

Posterior tibial slope measurement on lateral radiographs shows increased variability, reduced repeatability and risk of misclassification in osteoarthritic versus nonosteoarthritic knees

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The primary aim was to compare the variability and repeatability of medial posterior tibial slope (MPTS) measurements on lateral knee radiographs between osteoarthritic (OA) and non‐OA knees, and the secondary aim was to assess their implications for clinical classification.

Improved Accuracy of Multidimensional Spatially‐Selective Saturation RF Pulses for Short‐Repetition‐Time Steady‐State Imaging

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To introduce and evaluate a novel RF pulse design algorithm for multi‐dimensional spatially tailored excitation that is optimized for spoiled steady‐state gradient echo MRI sequences. Methods Existing multi‐dimensional RF pulse design algorithms optimize RF and gradient waveforms using a loss function based on a single RF pulse ...

Multi‐Agent Reinforcement Learning for Joint Police Patrol and Dispatch

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Police patrol units need to split their time between performing preventive patrol and being dispatched to serve emergency incidents. In the existing literature, patrol and dispatch decisions are often studied separately. We consider joint optimization of these two decisions to improve police operations efficiency and reduce response time to ...

Biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from mining waste: From genomic analysis to development of a polymeric composite for removal of hexavalent chromium

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...
