Can Artificial Intelligence Be Utilised to Develop Point‐of‐Care Endodontic Microbiological Technologies?

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Primary or persistent endodontic disease is caused by microbial biofilms that irritate the pulp and periapical tissues. Extensive microbiological analyses of these biofilms and their constituent pathogens have revealed their diversity and complexity.

Refining Residual Ischemic Stroke Risk in Anticoagulated Atrial Fibrillation Using Index Outpatient LA Diameter: The CHA2DS2‐VALa Score

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
In anticoagulated atrial fibrillation, residual ischemic stroke risk persists despite guideline‐directed therapy. In this single‐center cohort, an enlarged index outpatient left atrial diameter independently predicted stroke and improved risk stratification when added to CHA2DS2‐VA (CHA2DS2‐VALa), supporting a simple, clinically implementable ...

Frailty and Five‐Year Mortality After TAVR in Patients Aged 75 Years and Older

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
In patients aged 75 years and older undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement, frailty assessed by the Clinical Frailty Scale was the most robust geriatric factor independently associated with five‐year mortality. This study highlights the specific prognostic value of frailty beyond short‐term outcomes.

Nephronectin regulates cardiac valve development via BMP4-HAS2 signaling in zebrafish [PDF]

, 2011
It has been estimated that about 1% of live births carry severe congenital heart defects and 20-30% among them have valve malformations. Despite its medical importance the underlying cause of many valvular diseases remains undiscovered.

Influence of nanohydroxyapatite mouthwash on the growth of Candida albicans biofilm on milled denture surfaces: An in vitro study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.
