Pressed lithium disilicate glass ceramics: Microstructural characterization, in vitro and in silico nonlinear dynamic analysis for biaxial flexural strength

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the mechanical properties of lithium disilicates, and to assess the predictive capability of in silico models for biaxial flexural strength (BFS). Materials and Methods Specimens of four heat‐pressed lithium disilicates (IPS e.max Press, Rosetta SP, LiSi Press, Vintage Prime Press) were obtained.

Influence of occlusal thickness and aging on the fracture load of additively manufactured definitive crowns in different resins

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess the effects of occlusal thickness and thermomechanical aging on the fracture load of additively manufactured (AM) definitive crowns made from resins with different compositions, compared with crowns subtractively manufactured (SM) from a polymer‐infiltrated ceramic network. Materials and

Unexpected Suppression of Tomato Fruit Cuticle Formation by Overexpression of a Key Cutin Biosynthetic Enzyme

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fruit cuticles regulate the diffusion of water, gases and solutes, functioning as essential protective interfaces against environmental and biotic stresses. Engineering cuticle structure and mechanics therefore represents a promising strategy for improving fruit quality and resilience.

COBRA: A combined regression strategy

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 2016
A new method for combining several initial estimators of the regression function is introduced. Instead of building a linear or convex optimized combination over a collection of basic estimators $r_1,\dots,r_M$, we use them as a collective indicator of the proximity between the training data and a test observation. This local distance approach is model-

Inflorescence Photosynthesis Determines Resource Allocation, Seed Production and Senescence in an Agricultural Weed

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural weeds typically combine high reproductive output with fast vegetative growth. Here we analyzed the processes that overcome a potential trade‐off between vegetative growth and reproduction in the weed Avena fatua. We determined photosynthetic function of inflorescences and analyzed the transcriptomes of individual inflorescence ...

Mechanical pressure on endothelial cells mediates remote ischaemic preconditioning‐induced neuroprotection via miR‐126

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) uses brief limb ischaemia to protect distant organs, but the mechanism of travel of the protective signal remains unclear. This study investigated whether endothelial cells (ECs) contribute to RIPC‐induced neuroprotection and the underlying mechanisms.

Exclusive Hydroformylation of Terminal Olefins: A Phosphorus‐Free Ruthenium System for the Selective Functionalization of Complex Mixtures

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 39, 21 September 2026.
Development of a phosphorus‐free Ru/DBU catalyst enabling highly chemo‐ and regioselective hydroformylation of terminal olefins, sparing internal double bonds. Optimization of reaction parameters, ligand effects, and substrate scope including industrial feedstocks was realized.

Mapping of C5‐Blocking Monoclonal Antibodies Reveals New C5 Inhibitory Epitopes and Novel Modes of C5 Inhibition

Immunology, Volume 179, Issue 3, Page 444-456, November 2026.
We identify four distinct C5 inhibitory epitopes, including two novel antibodies that selectively block membrane attack complex (MAC) assembly while preserving C5 cleavage and C5a generation. These findings establish selective MAC inhibition as a new therapeutic strategy for complement‐mediated diseases.

Learning from Their Own Learning: How Metacognitive and Meta-affective Reflections Enhance Learning in Race-Related Courses

International Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2009
This interdisciplinary project examined how students think and feel about their learning in race-related diversity courses. Students in four classes (literature, psychology, geography) reflected on cognitive and affective dimensions of their own and ...
