Eosinophils‐Induced Lumican Secretion by Synovial Fibroblasts Alleviates Cartilage Degradation via the TGF‐β Pathway Mediated by Anxa1 Binding

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Eosinophils play a crucial role in the progression of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA). This study demonstrates that eosinophils, induced by OVA/IL‐5, promote Lumican secretion in the synovium, which binds to Annexin A1 in chondrocytes, inhibiting transforming growth factor β2 and Smad2/3 phosphorylation.

Tall Stature and Scoliosis Associated With a Novel Homozygous Loss‐of‐Function Missense Variant in NPR3

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT NPR3‐related tall stature is characterized by tall stature, elongated big toes, and additional epiphyses in hand and foot bones. The condition is caused by biallelic loss‐of‐function variants affecting natriuretic peptide receptor 3 (NPR3). Five individuals from four different families have been reported.

Expertise‐inspired artificial intelligence pipeline for clinically applicable reconstruction of tooth‐centric radial planes: Development and multicenter validation

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The expertise‐inspired AI pipeline demonstrates significant clinical utility for rapid and precise analysis of dento‐maxillofafcial CBCT and benefits for intelligent oral health management. Abstract Owing to the tooth‐centered nature of most oral diseases, the tooth‐centric radial plane of cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) depicts the anatomical and

A smile I could recognise in a thousand: Automatic identification of identity from dental radiography [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
In this paper, we present a method to automatically compare multiple radiographs in order to find the identity of a patient out of the dental features. The method is based on the matching of image features, previously extracted by computer vision algorithms for image descriptor recognition.

Scaffolding competence‐based learning design in the dental simulation curriculum

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Introduction Learning in a clinical domain in dentistry is complex and learners may face uncertain clinical scenarios. A simulation curriculum can be designed to have simple clinical scenarios and learning activities which progress in complexity and employ competence assessments of simulated clinical practice before students can undertake ...

Variational Autoencoding of Dental Point Clouds [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Digital dentistry has made significant advancements, yet numerous challenges remain. This paper introduces the FDI 16 dataset, an extensive collection of tooth meshes and point clouds. Additionally, we present a novel approach: Variational FoldingNet (VF-Net), a fully probabilistic variational autoencoder for point clouds.

The distally anchored connective tissue graft platform for papilla enhancement: A case report

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background As the need for using dental implants to replace single missing teeth grows, so does the demand for greater esthetic results. However, achieving complete interproximal papillae fill in single‐tooth implant restorations remains a challenge. The distally anchored connective tissue platform is a novel soft tissue augmentation technique
