Carotid Artery Plaque Analysis in 3D Based on Distance Encoding in Mesh Representations [PDF]
arXivPurpose: Enabling a comprehensive and robust assessment of carotid artery plaques in 3D through extraction and visualization of quantitative plaque parameters. These parameters have potential applications in stroke risk analysis, evaluation of therapy effectiveness, and plaque progression prediction.

A Two-Phase Model of Early Fibrous Cap Formation in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Atherosclerotic plaque growth is characterised by chronic inflammation that promotes accumulation of cellular debris and extracellular fat in the inner artery wall. This material is highly thrombogenic, and plaque rupture can lead to the formation of blood clots that occlude major arteries and cause myocardial infarction or stroke. In advanced plaques,

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 178-187, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the direct and indirect influence of fluoridated toothpastes and fluoride‐free toothpaste with hydroxyapatite (HAP) as active ingredient on initial bacterial colonization on enamel in situ. Methods For this clinical‐experimental pilot study, eight subjects were instructed to brush their teeth ...

Skin Diseases in Long‐Distance Runners
JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Long‐distance running, including both road running and trail/mountain running, has significantly increased in popularity in recent years. The prolonged, repetitive physical activity combined with environmental exposures predisposes runners to a range of dermatological problems.

Effect of brushing force on the abrasive dentin wear using slurries with different abrasivity values
International Journal of Dental Hygiene, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 172-177, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the resulting abrasive dentin wear using abrasive slurries with different RDA values and applying increasing brushing forces. Methods Forty‐five bovine incisors were randomly allocated in three groups (A, B, C, n = 15).

Segmentation of Soft atherosclerotic plaques using active contour models [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Detection of non-calcified plaques in the coronary tree is a challenging problem due to the nature of comprising substances. Hard plaques are easily discernible in CTA data cloud due to apparent bright behaviour, therefore many approaches have been proposed for automatic segmentation of calcified plaques.

Relative dentin and enamel abrasivity of charcoal toothpastes
International Journal of Dental Hygiene, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 149-156, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Objectives Very little data are known about charcoal toothpastes. The aim of this study was to counteract the missing data by determining the relative dentin abrasivity (RDA) and relative enamel abrasivity (REA) values of charcoal toothpastes.
