Engineering Nanoscale Frontiers: Valve Metal Oxide Nanostructures From Fundamentals to Multifunctional Biomedical Applications

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Valve metal oxide nanostructures such as TiO2, Ta2O5, Nb2O5, ZrO2, and HfO2 are emerging as versatile biomedical platforms due to their tunable surface properties, exceptional stability, and inherent biocompatibility. This review highlights their synthesis, physicochemical properties, and biological interactions, addressing their roles in advanced ...

Consumption of anthropogenic foods influences the nutritional and reproductive condition of hunter‐harvested black bears

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The consumption of human food subsidies influences ecological processes, and can affect individual behavior and fitness with population level changes in abundance and distribution. American black bears Ursus americanus often consume human food subsidies, which have been correlated with increased bear body size, age‐specific fertility and mortality ...

Radiographic Screening of Wild and Semi‐Wild Cape Ground Squirrels (Geosciurus inauris) for the Presence of Peri‐Apical Masses Associated With Elodont Incisor Teeth

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
Peri‐apical masses were absent in both wild and semi‐wild Cape ground squirrels, despite dietary differences and minor incisor trauma. These findings suggest such lesions are rare outside captivity and not induced by low‐fiber diets alone, adding to the literature on environmental and dietary risk factors in elodont tooth pathology.

Prenatal opioid exposure, and health, social and educational outcomes for school‐aged children: A systematic review

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Recent decades have seen a rise in the number of pregnancies exposed to opioids. Whilst evidence of the impact of such exposure on pregnancy and infant outcomes is fairly robust, the impact of prenatal opioid exposure (POE) on longer‐term outcomes for children and young people remains unclear.

What Outcomes Matter in Vital Pulp Therapy? Current Concepts and Challenges

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vital pulp therapy (VPT) has re‐emerged as a practical and biologically sound alternative for managing deep caries and carious pulp exposures. Although its clinical use is now widespread, the outcomes used to judge the success of VPT remain inconsistent and often difficult to compare across studies.

Dentin sialoprotein facilitates dental mesenchymal cell differentiation and dentin formation

Scientific Reports, 2017
Dentin sialoprotein (DSP) is a dentin extracellular matrix protein. It is involved in dental mesenchymal cell lineages and dentin formation through regulation of its target gene expression. DSP mutations cause dentin genetic diseases. However, mechanisms
