Horizontal Ridge Augmentation Using an rhBMP‐2 Loaded Volume‐Stable Collagen Matrix Compared to Guided Bone Regeneration: A Preclinical In Vivo Study

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate whether incorporation of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein‐2 (rhBMP‐2) into a volume‐stable collagen matrix (VCMX) enhances horizontal ridge augmentation compared with VCMX alone or guided bone regeneration (GBR). Methods Chronic horizontal ridge defects were created in five canines.

Stable Isotope Composition of Skin Layers Confirms Trophic Differentiation of Baird's and Sato's Beaked Whales (Berardius spp.) in the Western North Pacific

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Closely related whale species can appear similar yet occupy distinct ecological niches. Sato's beaked whale (Berardius minimus) was only recently recognized as a separate species and was previously grouped with Baird's beaked whale (Berardius bairdii), limiting our understanding of their ecological differences.

Functional models from limited data: A parametric and multimodal approach to anatomy and 3D kinematics of feeding in basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2262-2285, September 2026.
Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.

The Effect of Using Write‐Zoom for Volume Flow Measurements in Haemodialysis Fistulas

open access: yesSonography, Volume 13, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are crucial for patients undergoing haemodialysis, yet about 25% fail to mature or experience early failure. Ultrasound is key in managing AVFs, with volume flow (Qa) serving as a predictor of maturation.

The 2b Protein of Cucumoviruses Has a Role in Promoting the Cell-to-cell Movement of Pseudorecombinant Viruses

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2003
Pseudorecombinant viruses (i.e., those containing a reas-sorted genome of closely related multipartite viruses) are often not as competitive as the parental viruses. The role of the 2b gene in hypervirulence and maintenance of a progressive infection was

Tailoring Multifunctional Carbon Dots via Precursor Stoichiometry: Switching Between Solid‐State Fluorescence and Broadband Absorption Through Aggregation Control

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 45, 13 August 2026.
Precursor stoichiometry programs the surface chemistry of carbon dots, directing their self‐assembly into distinct aggregation modes. Aldehyde‐enriched surfaces form ordered, hydrogen‐bonded assemblies that enable bright red solid‐state fluorescence, whereas amine‐rich surfaces promote compact π–π stacked aggregates with broadband visible‐light ...

The bicuspid aortic valve and its relation to aortic dilation

open access: yesClinics, 2010
BACKGROUND: A bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital heart disease, which affects 1-2% of the population. However, the relationship between BAVs and aortic dilation has not been sufficiently elucidated.
