An Exploratory Comparative Analysis of Mixed Reality Simulation Versus 3D‐Printed Models for Undergraduate Training in Third Molar Removal

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose/Objectives To compare the effectiveness of MR simulation and 3D‐printed models in training undergraduate students in wisdom tooth removal, and to assess students’ perceptions of the MR simulator. Methods Students trained first on either the MR simulator or 3D‐printed plastic models and then repeated the training using the other method ...

The Art of Reception: Field Visits as Microcosms for Development Interventions of Non‐Governmental Organisations in Uganda

Journal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Field visits are common phenomena with non‐governmental organisations in Uganda. During these visits, Ugandan national staff guide visitors on series of meetings and interactions in the field. Following an actor‐oriented approach and drawing on ethnographic data on 14 field visits, this paper understands the field visit as a microcosm for the ...

MR Imaging‐Based Biomarkers for Strength Prediction: A Statistical Shape and Architecture Modeling of Quadriceps Muscles

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle mass decline, associated with strength decline, is a hallmark of aging. Yet, strength decline greatly exceeds mass decline. This indicates that aspects of muscle quality and architecture—not reflected by mass—also influence force generating capacity.

Mapping the Socialization Externalization Combination Internalization Model's Evolution: A Systematic Literature Review for Future Research

Knowledge and Process Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic literature review examines the evolution and contemporary relevance of the SECI model in knowledge management. A hybrid methodology, combining bibliometric analysis with the TCCM (Theories, Contexts, Characteristics, Methods) framework, was used to provide a comprehensive overview of the research domain.

Finite Element Analysis of Behavior in Semi-Rigid Steel Frames

, 2010
A two-span, three-story steel frame with two web and top-seat angle connections was constructed. Then a low-cycled reverse loading experiment with this frame was conducted to obtain elastic-plastic behavior of semi-rigid connections steel frame under ...

Eustachian Tube Opening in Children With and Without Cleft Palate and Association With Otitis Media

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Using transnasal endoscopy in 50 children, structural abnormalities of the torus tubarius—particularly the posterior lip—were significantly more common in children with cleft palate than in those without (52% vs. 20%). Adenoid size, dynamic Eustachian tube opening visibility, and the Eustachian Tube Inflammation Scale correlated with middle ear status ...

Reachable Workspace as a Clinical Outcome for Upper Extremity Function: A Narrative Review

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Motion sensing technology can be utilized to capture detailed upper extremity (UE) motion to reconstruct an individual's three‐dimensional (3D) reachable workspace (RWS). The RWS can be quantified as relative surface area (RSA), providing an innovative surrogate measure to assess UE mobility and function.
