Current trend of sexual maturity, teeth eruption, and bone fusion in the present female population, relative to documented age and development of prediction model for age of females

Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care
Background: Understanding sexual maturity and bone fusion is crucial in forensic investigations and legal contexts. This study investigates the contemporary trend of sexual maturity and bone fusion in females, comparing the observed age-related ...

Diurnal Release of Airborne Pathogen Spores in Greenhouses via the Synergistic Effects of Relative Humidity and Wind

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Day‐night cycles trigger sharp relative humidity (RH) shifts in greenhouses. Rapid humidity drops dehydrate Corynespora cassiicola spores, inducing shrinkage, jerking movements, and weakened inter‐spore connections that drive detachment. Wind is essential for dispersal, with even mild airflow enabling rapid pathogen spread. These synergistic effects of

The anterior tooth development of cattle presented for slaughter: an analysis of age, sex and breed

Animal, 2013
In a cross-sectional study, data from records of cattle slaughtered over a 1-year period at a large abattoir in South West England were analysed using an ordered category response model to investigate the inter-relationships between age, sex and breed on

Morphological convergence in a Mexican garter snake associated with the ingestion of a novel prey

Ecology and Evolution, 2017
Morphological convergence is expected when organisms which differ in phenotype experience similar functional demands, which lead to similar associations between resource utilization and performance.

A Model for the Analysis of Caries Occurrence in Primary Molar Tooth Surfaces [PDF]

, 2012
Recently methods of caries quantification in the primary dentition have moved away from summary ‘whole mouth’ measures at the individual level to methods based on generalised linear modelling (GLM) approaches or survival analysis approaches. However, GLM

A MXene‐Based Nanothermal Knife Inhibits Aggresome‐Mediated Persister Formation for Preventing Dental Caries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Early childhood caries (ECC) involves cariogenic persisters that evade antimicrobial treatment. Persisters achieve this by downregulating heat shock proteins (HSPs) and formation of protein aggregates. Ti3C2 MXene‐based photothermal therapy (PTT) acts as a “nanothermal knife,” disrupting membranes, upregulating HSPs, inhibits aggregates, prevents ...

A Sub‐Diffraction‐Limit Dimension All‐Plasmonic Optical Memory Using Non‐Linear Photochromism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An all‐plasmonic optical memory is demonstrated by using nonlinear plasmonics on a sub‐diffraction limit plasmonic nanowire waveguide coated with a photochromic diarylethene that supports the complete memory processes, “Write”, “Erase”, and “Readout” the memory ON/OFF states. Abstract The development of compact, high‐speed, and energy‐efficient optical

Consequences of Tooth Loss on Oral Function and need for Replacement of Missing Teeth Among Patients Attending Muhimbili Dental Clinic [PDF]

, 2011
Tanzanian oral health services constitute mainly of tooth extractions. Consequently, individuals susceptible to dental caries and periodontal diseases will have a substantial number of missing teeth, which can affect oral function.

A Soft‐Soft Contact Triboelectric Nanogenerator with a Ternary Four‐Phase Structure for Self‐Powered High‐Efficiency Dust Removal on Mars

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The frequent dust storms and charged dust particles on Mars pose significant challenges to the power generation efficiency and service life of solar panels during exploration missions. This paper proposes a novel wind‐driven ternary four‐phase soft‐soft contact triboelectric nanogenerator (FPS‐TENG) for dust removal.
