Objective Measurement of Tooth Color Using Spectrophotometry and ICDAS: Quantifying CIELAB Color Changes Across Caries Severity

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) is widely used for early caries detection but relies on visual interpretation. Although spectrophotometry objectively quantifies tooth color, variation across ICDAS categories and its relationship with lesion severity remain unclear. The present in vitro study therefore

Endoscopic Pseudo‐dilation of Esophagogastric Junction During Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy: (With Video)

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim During peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for achalasia, endoscopic esophagogastric junction (EGJ) opening is generally considered a sign of successful myotomy. However, in clinical practice, the EGJ may appear to open immediately after submucosal tunneling, even before myotomy is performed.

Near-Infrared Imaging for Detecting Caries and Structural Deformities in Teeth

IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine, 2017
2-D radiographs, while commonly used for evaluating sub-surface hard structures of teeth, have low sensitivity for early caries lesions, particularly those on tooth occlusal surfaces.

Porphyromonas gingivalis Outer Membrane Vesicles‐Associated DNA Triggers Inflammation by Inducing IL‐6 in Astrocytes

Molecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 227-238, August 2026.
Pg releases OMVs which contain Pg genomic DNA. The Pg OMVs‐associated DNA is incorporated into astrocytes via endocytosis and increases IL‐6 mRNA expression via TLR9. These effects of Pg OMVs may induce neuroinflammation, which could contribute to the onset and progression of AD in periodontal disease.

The L108I polymorphism in mouse prion protein drives spontaneous disease and enhances transmission of atypical and classical prion strains

Brain Pathology, Volume 36, Issue 4, July 2026.
A single amino acid change (L108I) combined with PrP overexpression drives spontaneous atypical prion formation in mice, enabling also efficient propagation of diverse prion strains. This model allows studying how spontaneous prion diseases arise and provides powerful tools for investigating strain emergence, transmission barriers, and mechanisms ...

Explainability, Bias and Generalizability of AI Models in Dentistry: A Systematic Review of Model Interpretability and Equity

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background AI‐based dentistry has advanced significantly in recent years. AI models like deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) have paved the way for new approaches to image diagnostics and early risk prediction, making patient treatment plans more personalized. Aim The objective of this study was to assess the explainability, bias, and

ω‐3PUFAs Inhibit Gallbladder Cancer Through Enhancing STK31 Methylation

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
ABSTRACT Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is an aggressive malignancy with limited treatment options. ω‐3PUFAs have known anticancer activity, but their role in GBC remains unclear. The anti‐GBC effects of ω‐3PUFAs (DHA/EPA) were evaluated using in vitro assays and mouse xenograft models.
