This study identifies osteocyte‐derived FGF9 as a mechanosensitive factor that impairs osteogenesis in the underdeveloped maxilla by inducing FGFR2 nuclear translocation in preosteoblasts. Mechanical stimulation reduces FGF9 secretion, relieving its inhibitory effect. These findings reveal a novel osteocyte–preosteoblast FGF9–FGFR2 axis in craniofacial

Photon pair generation using four-wave mixing in a microstructured fibre: theory versus experiment
We develop a theoretical analysis of four-wave mixing used to generate photon pairs useful for quantum information processing. The analysis applies to a single mode microstructured fibre pumped by an ultra-short coherent pulse in the normal dispersion ...

ABSTRACT Purpose The objective of this study was to compare the detachment surfaces of Schneiderian membrane elevation of 4–8 mm by transcrestal technique using hollowed osteotomes on human cadavers with 4 mm residual bone height. Methods The study followed the CACTUS (ChAracteristics of Cadaver Training and sUrgical Studies) guidelines.

Cryptococcus gattii Genotype VGI Infection in New England [PDF]
Cryptococcus gattii is a known, emerging infectious disease pathogen predominantly in the Pacific Northwest, the United States, and British Columbia, Canada. We report a case of an immunocompetent adolescent from New England who had severe pulmonary and central nervous system infection caused by the VGI genotype of C. gattii.

Assessing the Validity of OpenStreetMap for Food Environment Research
ABSTRACT This study assessed agreement between food environment measures derived from OpenStreetMap (OSM) data, a commercial dataset, and an administrative dataset (the Canadian Food Environment Dataset, Can‐FED) to better understand the suitability of OSM food‐related data for food environment research.

ABSTRACT Scales, as survey instruments, are crucial for investigating people's attitudes and behaviors in social science research. Cronbach's alpha is the most frequently used measure of internal consistency reliability for multi‐item survey scales. Affected by the spatial context of respondents' locations, the reliability of responses to a scale may ...
