Hermit beetle (Osmoderma barnabita) habitat selection and movement are shaped by tree microhabitat availability in Eastern Romanian Carpathians

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We conducted the first radio‐tracking study on Osmoderma barnabita to examine the movement ecology and habitat selection in the Eastern Carpathians. A female recorded the longest movement distance and had larger home ranges than males. It showed a preference for Quercus petraea, with wood mould cavities and DBH as key predictors.

Scalp Microbiome Alterations in Androgenetic Alopecia: Patterns and Emerging Mechanistic Insights

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Summary of the microbiome‐lipid‐microinflammation axis in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Altered sebaceous gland activity, shifts in microbial abundance on the scalp and hair follicle, and follicular microinflammation interact bidirectionally, each reinforcing the others.

EUS-Guided Combined Injection Therapy as a Secondary Prophylaxis of Gastric Variceal Bleeding in a Patient Contraindicated for TIPS: Case Report

Medicina
Background: Although bleeding from gastric varices is less observed than esophageal variceal bleeding (VB) (25% vs. 64%), it is associated with an exceedingly high mortality rate of up to 45%.

Directional Sensitivity and Mechanical Coupling Dynamics of Campaniform Sensilla During Chordwise Deformations of the Fly Wing [PDF]

, 1992
The complex morphology of an insect campaniform sensillum is responsible for transforming strains of the integument into a displacement of the campaniform dome and subsequently a deformation of the dendritic membrane.

A Simplified Technique for the Fabrication of Esthetic and Functional Space Maintainers in Pediatric Dentistry

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Premature loss of primary molars remains a frequent clinical problem in pediatric dentistry and may lead to space loss, occlusal disturbances, and the need for future orthodontic intervention. Conventional space maintainers, such as the band‐and‐loop appliance, are effective in preserving arch length but do not restore occlusal ...

The Spot‐Dam Technique: A Protocol for Adhesive Cementation of BOPT Crowns

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The Biologically Oriented Preparation Technique (BOPT) uses vertical tooth preparation without a defined finish line, guided by provisional restorations to shape the gingival emergence profile. Subgingival crown margins inherent to BOPT increase the risk of residual cement and soft‐tissue trauma during adhesive cementation.

Linear and Nonlinear Encoding Properties of an Identified Mechanoreceptor on the Fly wing Measured with Mechanical Noise Stimuli [PDF]

, 1990
The wing blades of most flies contain a small set of distal campaniform sensilla, mechanoreceptors that respond to deformations of the cuticle. This paper describes a method of analysis based upon mechanical noise stimuli which is used to quantify the ...

Peri‐implant tissue definition and registration with a 3D‐printed emergence profile former on titanium stock healing abutment: A dental technique and clinical report

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent focus has shifted toward refining the soft tissue emergence profile to enhance aesthetics, support peri‐implant health, and ensure long‐term success. Traditionally, titanium stock healing abutments or chairside‐customized abutments were used to shape peri‐implant tissues and develop the emergence profile for implant‐supported prostheses.

Characterization, antifungal potential, cytocompatibility, and regenerative potential of mucoadhesive gel containing antifungal‐β‐cyclodextrin inclusion complexes

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to characterize a mucoadhesive gel containing nystatin (NYS) or chlorhexidine (CHX), complexed or not with β‐cyclodextrin (βCD), and evaluate its rheological and mucoadhesive properties, antifungal efficacy, cytocompatibility, and collagen synthesis potential.

Use of Platelet‐Rich Fibrin (PRF) on Palatal Wound Healing: A Narrative Review With Clinical Recommendations

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Based on the available evidence, the application of platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF) following free gingival graft (FGG) and subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) harvesting appears to be a promising approach for enhancing wound healing, minimizing postoperative complications, and reducing analgesic consumption.
