Harnessing Artificial Intelligence to Predict Dental Crowding in Modern Orthodontic Practice: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dental crowding is fundamental to orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning, yet what constitutes “crowding” remains surprisingly heterogeneous. Space analysis quantifies tooth size–arch length discrepancy, irregularity indices characterize alignment displacement, and clinician‐assigned severity reflects broader diagnostic interpretation ...

Bilateral Tuberculum Sextum of Maxillary Permanent First Molar

open access: yesDiagnostics
The human tooth’s morphology, which includes variations in cusp numbers and patterns, is of tremendous interest to anthropologists, morphologists, and dentists. Cusp 6 is an additional cusp that is very seldom encountered in primary or permanent mandibular molars, especially first molars.

The Musculoskeletal Consequences of Mouth Breathing in Adults: A Systematic Review

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Chronic mouth breathing can have a negative impact on posture, cause temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), reduced masticatory muscle activity and efficiency, and suprahyoid muscle overuse. Postural changes include a head forward posture and increased lumbar lordosis.

Home and away: allometry and climate drive morphology of European rabbits in their native and introduced range

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions shape phenotypic evolution by driving adaptations that optimise organismal function. Invasive species provide valuable systems to study these processes, as they often encounter novel climatic conditions in their introduced ranges. The European rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus, native to the Iberian Peninsula, has established populations

Risk factors for dental overgrowth in rabbits: A retrospective study using electronic health records

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Rabbits’ teeth grow continuously. Overgrown teeth are a frequent cause for veterinary consultation and can have severe welfare implications. The risk factors for overgrown teeth are incompletely understood. Methods Rabbits with overgrown teeth recorded in their electronic health records (EHRs) were identified from a large population

HOST MATTER: Parasite infection drives chemical reconfiguration of decomposing host and shapes insect behavioural responses

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host–parasite interactions shape ecosystems by driving species dynamics, yet their influence is typically considered in terms of host mortality rather than the chemical environments generated during infection and decomposition.
