The management of obstructive sleep apnea accompanied with mandibular retrognathia across the lifespan from orthodontic perspective [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a complex disease with complex etiology, which requires multidisciplinary cooperation in diagnosis and treatment. Mandibular retrognathia is strongly associated with OSA. Orthodontists can either correct the mandibular retrognathia of pediatric OSA via various kinds of orthodontic appliances, following adenoidectomy and

OrthoGAN:High-Precision Image Generation for Teeth Orthodontic Visualization [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Patients take care of what their teeth will be like after the orthodontics. Orthodontists usually describe the expectation movement based on the original smile images, which is unconvincing. The growth of deep-learning generative models change this situation.

CephGPT-4: An Interactive Multimodal Cephalometric Measurement and Diagnostic System with Visual Large Language Model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Large-scale multimodal language models (LMMs) have achieved remarkable success in general domains. However, the exploration of diagnostic language models based on multimodal cephalometric medical data remains limited. In this paper, we propose a novel multimodal cephalometric analysis and diagnostic dialogue model.

High‐Yield, Magnetic Harvesting of Extracellular Outer‐Membrane Vesicles from Escherichia coli

open access: yesSmall, Volume 18, Issue 48, December 1, 2022., 2022
A high‐yield method for magnetic‐harvesting of outer‐membrane vesicles (OMVs) from Escherichia coli is developed, based on growth in thepresence of iron‐oxide magnetic nanoparticles. Magnetic‐harvesting increases the OMV yield almost 60‐fold compared with ultracentrifugation.
