Oral-3D: Reconstructing the 3D Bone Structure of Oral Cavity from 2D Panoramic X-ray [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Panoramic X-ray (PX) provides a 2D picture of the patient's mouth in a panoramic view to help dentists observe the invisible disease inside the gum. However, it provides limited 2D information compared with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), another dental imaging method that generates a 3D picture of the oral cavity but with more radiation dose and

Iron Deficiency Impairs Dendritic Cell Development and Function, Compromising Host Anti‐Infection Capacity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Iron deficiency reduces monocyte dendritic cell progenitor (MDP) numbers by inhibiting migration and proliferation while promoting apoptosis, subsequently reducing downstream common dendritic cell precursors (CDP) and dendritic cell (DC). Impaired DCs enter the lungs via blood circulation, where reduced antigen presentation impairs T‐cell activation ...
