Fluorosis: An Uncommon Cause of Quadriparesis

open access: yesJournal of the Indian Academy of Geriatrics, 2017
Fluorine is a double edged sword as its higher levels are linked with dental/skeletal fluorosis while its deficiency is associated with dental caries.1 Skeletal fluorosis may remain asymptomatic or may present with myeloradiculopathy secondary to cord ...

Adsorption and Sensing Behavior of Pristine, P‐Doped, and Al‐Doped Boron Nitride Nanosheets Toward Toxic Hydrogen Fluoride Gas: Insights from Density Functional Theory Analysis

open access: yesChemistryOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study reveals how pristine, P‐doped, and Al‐doped boron nitride nanosheets interact with toxic hydrogen fluoride (HF) gas using density functional theory (DFT) simulation. Enhanced adsorption and charge transfer in doped systems highlight their potential as sensitive and selective gas sensors, providing molecular‐level insights for nanoscale ...

Pycnodysostosis With Papilledema and Isolated Low Parathyroid Hormone Levels in an Eight‐Year‐Old Girl: A Genetically Confirmed Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Pycnodysostosis is a rare autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia resulting from pathogenic variants in the CTSK gene, which encodes cathepsin K, a lysosomal cysteine protease expressed in osteoclasts. Deficiency of this enzyme leads to defective bone resorption and generalized osteosclerosis.

Reflections of Their Homelands—Early Life Enamel Formation Disruption in Nineteenth Century Settlers of Otago, New Zealand

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
Physiological stress during early life can impede development, and signals of this are preserved in nonremodelling tissues such as dental enamel. This article describes nonspecific stress markers in the teeth of European (n = 30) and Southern Chinese (n = 15) adult migrants to New Zealand, and colony‐born children (n = 10) interred in four historic ...
