Unsupervised phenotyping of the periodontal architecture through high‐dimensional clustering of electronic health records: A multicenter study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To identify novel periodontal phenotypes using unsupervised machine learning on a large‐scale, multicenter cohort, specifically characterizing disease patterns based on the “periodontal architecture” of localized structural failures (tooth mobility and molar furcation defects) rather than global severity averages alone. Methods This

Nutritional and sensory characteristics of local and hybrid East African Highland cooking bananas: Implications for breeding programs

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bananas (Musa species) are an important staple food and cash crop in many parts of the world. The East African Highland cooking bananas form the backbone of food security for millions of Ugandans. The demand for high quality cooking bananas is thus closely linked to their sensory characteristics (which drive consumer preference) and

Technical Skills Development for Medical Students in an Otolaryngology Mentorship Program

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that a longitudinal otolaryngology mentorship program integrating technical skills training can significantly improve both objective performance and self‐reported confidence among medical students. Through faculty mentorship and early exposure to suturing, flexible laryngoscopy, and tympanostomy tube insertion, students ...

Simulated Root Exudation Gradient Reveals Dosage‐Dependent Carbon Sequestration in Desertification Ecosystems

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root exudates serve as a key driver for the restoration of soil organic carbon (SOC), particularly in aeolian desertification ecosystems where aboveground litter retention is limited. While Salix cupularis is widely planted as an effective pioneer shrub for ecological rehabilitation on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau, how the quantity of its root ...

Voice and Speech in Deep Brain Stimulation in Dystonia: A Retrospective Study, Systematic Review, and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Relatively little is known about voice and speech abnormalities and their changes after deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with dystonia. Objective The aim was to determine the incidence of speech abnormalities, including laryngeal dystonia, among patients with dystonia receiving DBS and to characterize their response to this ...

A Generalized Approach to Solving Deep Learning‐Based Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping and Quantitative Blood Oxygen Level Dependent Magnitude (QSM + qBOLD or QQ) for Oxygen Extraction Fraction (OEF) Mapping Across Diverse Acquisition Schemes

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose QQ, a recently proposed oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) mapping technique combining quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) and quantitative blood oxygen level‐dependent (qBOLD) (QSM + qBOLD = QQ), generates OEF maps noninvasively from a single routine MRI sequence, without requiring vascular challenges used in other OEF approaches.

Linking Environmental Health and Civic Health: An Analysis of Air Pollution and Charitable Giving

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the effect of air pollution on charitable giving. We suggest that the burdens associated with poor air quality are associated with a dampening of civic and philanthropic engagement. Analyzing 12 years of county‐level data from the United States with fixed‐effects OLS and instrumental variables regressions, we identify a ...
