Enormous Asymptomatic Intraoral Sialolithiasis: A Case Report

Ear, Nose & Throat Journal
Sialolithiasis is one of the most common diseases of salivary glands. More than 80% of the sialoliths occur in the submandibular gland. While most of the calculi are less than 10 mm in size, 7.6% are larger than 15 mm and are classified as giant ...

A rare case of multiple minor salivary gland sialoliths in the masseteric region

Clinical Case Reports, 2021
We report a case of a 59‐year‐old woman who presented with swelling of the right cheek. CT Scan showed three calculi located anteromedial to the masseter, and well isolated from other major salivary glands.

Ovarian Cancer Diagnosis and Chemoresistance Prediction Model Based on cfRNA Molecular Signature

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A deep learning model analyzes cfRNA profiles extracted from the blood of OVCA patients. This innovative approach distinguishes OVCA from healthy controls with high accuracy. Crucially, it reliably predicts patient response to chemotherapy (sensitive versus resistant subgroups).

Gold standard approach for removing sialoliths from the submandibular gland

Journal of Contemporary Medical Sciences, 2018
Objective Sialolithiasis, the most common disease of the salivary gland, is characterized by calculi in gland and its duct. While most salivary calculi are small in size, giant calculi with diameters spanning several centimeters are also reported ...

TRAF6 Lactylation in Glycolytic Macrophages Drives NF‐κB Signaling and M1 Polarization During Orthodontic Tooth Movement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram showing compressive stress triggers glycolytic reprogramming and lactate accumulation in macrophages. Lactate mediates TRAF6 lactylation at K171/K180 dual sites, which enhances its K63‐linked ubiquitination to activate the NF‑κB pathway and promote M1 polarization. This cascade drives orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) and alveolar bone

Multiscale Coupling From Mastication to Retronasal Aroma Perception: The PG‐DTCFN Model and Multiphysics Simulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using grilled lamb skewers as a model system, this work builds a multiscale coupling framework from oral processing to retronasal aroma perception, reveals dual‐kinetic release patterns and Electroencephalogram‐characterized central encoding features, and proposes an interpretable physics‐guided deep learning model validated by multiphysics simulation,

Parotid sialolithiasis and sialadenitis in a 3-year-old child: a case report and review of the literature

Egyptian Pediatric Association Gazette, 2020
Background Salivary gland calculi are common in adults but rare in the paediatric population. It accounts for only 3% of all cases of sialolithiasis. Parotid ductal calculus is rare as compared to submandibular ductal calculus. Case presentation A 3-year-

Use of a laryngeal tube for sialolithotomy in a pediatric patient with left vocal cord paralysis: a case report

JA Clinical Reports, 2023
Background The laryngeal tube (LT), a closed esophageal supraglottic device comprising pharyngeal and esophageal cuffs, is used for emergency airway management. However, it is not often used in intraoperative airway management. Case presentation A 9-year-

Matrix Stiffness Enhances Odontogenic Differentiation of DPSCs through Membrane Curvature Protein Baiap2‐Modulated Exosome Release

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Matrix stiffness softening is identified as a previously underappreciated feature in deep caries. Higher stiffness drives exosome release in dental pulp stem cells through a coordinated mechanism involving PI3K–AKT‐regulated Baiap2 and kinesin‐1, thereby promoting odontogenic differentiation.
