An Exploratory Comparative Analysis of Mixed Reality Simulation Versus 3D‐Printed Models for Undergraduate Training in Third Molar Removal

open access: yesJournal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose/Objectives To compare the effectiveness of MR simulation and 3D‐printed models in training undergraduate students in wisdom tooth removal, and to assess students’ perceptions of the MR simulator. Methods Students trained first on either the MR simulator or 3D‐printed plastic models and then repeated the training using the other method ...

Statistical Downscaling of Daily Temperature and Precipitation From Regional Climate Models in Complex Mountain Terrain

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The study provides insights for post‐processing climate model output in complex terrain, useful for climate change impact models. We compared different bias adjustment and downscaling techniques from quantile delta mapping to simple lapse rates. We developed a new spatial downscaling method based on principal components analysis, which showed superior ...

Double‐VISTA technique with connective tissue graft or acellular dermal matrix for treating multiple recessions associated with non‐carious cervical lesions: A retrospective study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This retrospective study evaluated whether clinical outcomes differed between connective tissue graft (CTG) and allogeneic solvent‐dehydrated acellular dermal matrix (ADM) for treating multiple gingival recessions associated with non‐carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) using partial restoration and the double‐vestibular incision ...

Climate‐smart agriculture adoption intensity in a semi‐arid agricultural landscape: drivers and disparities

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Climate‐smart agriculture (CSA) has emerged as a key strategy for enhancing agricultural productivity, strengthening resilience to climate change, and reducing environmental impacts. Understanding the factors that influence farmers' adoption of CSA practices (CSAPs) is essential for designing effective policies and support ...

Viability analysis and the importance of fine‐scale variables influencing roadkills of a toad population

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Fine‐scale population variables better explain roadkill patterns in natterjack toads (Epidalea calamita) than habitat proxies, with mortality driven mainly by local abundance, reduced by roadside embankments, and decreasing as the season advanced. Despite high roadkills, population viability analyses indicate no immediate extinction risk under current ...

Landscape drivers of scaled quail occurrence across a broad spatiotemporal scale: implications for habitat management

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Combining large‐scale avian surveys with remote sensing products revealed landscape variables that likely limit scaled quail occurrence at the ecoregion scale in Texas. Promoting management practices that address ecoregion‐specific limiting factors may be key to averting further declines.
