Measuring sexual dimorphism in human faces
CVA outperforms regression scoring when measuring sexual dimorphism in human faces, allowing for more accurate classification and shape reconstruction. Method selection has a significant impact on findings, necessitating a reevaluation of previous claims linking facial masculinity to traits such as height.

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

Acidic pH Restricts Non‐Tuberculous Mycobacteria Replication
Different nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species display unique replication profiles in acidic pH in vitro which correlates to their replication within human macrophages. Inhibition of the acidic environments within the macrophage enhances bacterial viability emphasising the role of acidic pH during NTM infections.

Successful Treatment of Severe Purpura Fulminans With Anakinra
ABSTRACT Purpura fulminans (PF) is a rare, often fatal pediatric condition characterized by intravascular thrombosis and hemorrhagic infarction of the skin. A timely diagnosis and treatment are paramount to prevent the involvement of internal organs, causing disseminated intravascular coagulation and gangrene of the extremities.
