Histogram‐Corrected Intraoral Photographs for Early Gingivitis Screening in Orthodontic Patients
International Journal of Dental Hygiene, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 720-729, November 2026.ABSTRACT Objectives Gingivitis has a significant impact on periodontal health, both during and after orthodontic treatment. Early detection and management are essential for minimizing tissue damage. This study investigated an early gingivitis detection method using intraoral photographs (IOPs) taken before, at the midpoint (MO), and three‐quarters of ...

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 11, November 2026.ABSTRACT Metakaolin‐based geopolymers are candidate binders for refractory and fire‐resistant components because they combine ceramic‐like thermal stability with low‐temperature processing. Their use is still restricted by a trade‐off: Formulations that develop high strength shrink substantially near 800°C, while formulations that remain dimensionally ...

Breaking Barriers: Scaffolding Social‐Symbolic Work for Women’s Economic Empowerment
Journal of Management Studies, Volume 63, Issue 7, Page 3961-3992, November 2026.Abstract This study advances the understanding of Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE) in non‐Western contexts by theorizing how social‐symbolic work facilitates empowerment despite entrenched institutional and cultural constraints. Drawing on a qualitative study into the establishment of Kuwait’s first women’s business incubator, we explore how female ...

Fostering Innovation: Streamlining Magnetocaloric Materials Research by Digitalization
Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 20, 21 October 2026.Magnetocaloric cooling (MCE) is an environmentally friendly refrigeration method with great potential. Optimizing MCE materials involves the preparation and screening of large quantities of samples, which in turn generates a large amount of data. A digitalization approach is presented that uses ontologies, knowledge graphs, and digital workflows to ...
