After treatment, teeth sectioned through center lesion. extent sliver precipitation examined using quantitative backscattered electron scanning microscopy (qBSE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). qBSE-SEM images revealed that particles could...
<p dir="ltr">Sodium-glucose transporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) drugs are widely used for lowering blood glucose levels independent of insulin. Beyond this, these induce various metabolic changes, including weight loss and impaired bone integrity. There is a significant gap in understanding SGLT2i-induced skeletal as SGLT2 not expressed osteoblasts or osteocytes, which use to remodel the matrix. We studied impact 1, 3, 6 months canagliflozin (CANA), an SGLT2i treatment, on skeleton...

The life history pattern of recent humans is uniquely derived in many its aspects including an extended post-reproductive lifespan combined with short interbirth intervals. A number theories have been proposed to explain the evolution this unusual pattern. However most difficult test due fragmentary nature hominin fossil record and lack methods capable inferring such later events. In search a method we tested hypothesis that physiologically impactful events parturition menopause are recorded...
Long-term fixation of uncemented joint implants requires early mechanical stability and implant osseointegration. To date, osseointegration has been unreliable remains a major challenge in cementless total knee arthroplasty. We developed murine model which an intra-articular proximal tibial titanium with roughened stem can be loaded through the joint. Using this model, we tested hypothesis that intermittent injection parathyroid hormone (iPTH) would increase cancellous...
Mammalian teeth exhibit incremental structures representing successive forming fronts of enamel at varying time scales, including a short daily increment called cross striation and long period stria Retzius, the latter which, in humans, occurs on average every 8–9 days. The number increments between striae is repeat interval, which same as that required to form one bone, i.e. lamella, fundamental – if not archetypal unit bone. Lamellae known formation nevertheless vary width, thus their...
Background: Standard liver volume (SLV) is important in risk assessment for major hepatectomy. We aimed to investigate the growth patterns of normal with age and body weight (BW) summarize formulae calculating SLV children. Methods: Overall, 792 Chinese children (&lt;18 years age) were enrolled. Liver volumes measured using computed tomography. Correlations between BW, height (BH), surface area (BSA) analyzed. New selected from different regression models; they assessed by multicentral...
The Department of Homeland Security, Science and Technology Directorate (DHS/S&T) is exploring the feasibility to geolocate pollen grains found on goods or people for compliance with U.S. import laws criminal forensics. A multidisciplinary team built Pollen Identification Geolocation (PIGLT) system help users identify samples perform geolocation. performed using either traditional family, genus species information, a morphological ID based an existing database herbaria samples.

Overcoming the non-specificity of histological accentuated growth lines in hard tissues is an ongoing challenge. Identifying season at death and reproductive events has profound implications for evolutionary, ecological conservation studies. Dental cementum a mineralized tissue with yearly periodicity that continues deposition from tooth formation until death, maintaining record spanning almost entire life individual. Recent work successfully employed elemental analysis calcified incremental...
Many open questions in evolutionary studies relate to species' physiological adaptations, including the evolution of their life history and reproductive strategies. There are few empirical methods capable detecting timing physiologically impactful events such as weaning, parturition illnesses from hard tissue remains either extant or extinct species. Cementum is an incremental with post eruption annual periodicity, which covers tooth root functions a recording structure animal's physiology....
Abstract Our objective is to assess variation in Havers–Halberg oscillation ( HHO ) periodicities among domestic dogs Canis familiaris ). The hypothesized be a hypothalamic‐generated biorhythm coordinating multiple life history variables including body mass and lifespan. Dogs have broad range spanning two orders of magnitude, but this has been shown result from selection on very few genetic loci, low other traits. Therefore, we predict that will not correlated dogs, as it anthropoid...
To measure the number of days enamel formation between periodic striae Retzius growth lines, periodicity (RP), and to compare this multi-day, or multidien rhythm, body height weight among people from Beijing, China Lhasa, Tibet/China.Subjects requiring dental extractions clinics in (N = 338) Tibet/China 227) provided a tooth size information. Multiple observers examined histological sections teeth recorded RP. RP values were statistically compared weight.In Beijing Lhasa samples,...
The application of multimodal deep learning for emergency response and recovery, specifically in disaster social media analysis, is utmost importance. It worth noting that real-world scenarios, sudden events may differ from the training data, which require network to predict them as unknown classes instead misclassifying known ones. Previous studies have primarily focused on model accuracy a closed environment not be able directly detect classes. Thus, we propose novel categorizing related...
Age at death estimation is a key element to many research questions in biological anthropology, archeology, and forensic science. Dental cementum tissue of choice for the age adult individuals as it continues deposition entirety an individual's life. Previous works have devised regression formulas correlating thickness death. However, interpopulation variances are unknown, therefore not clear whether regressions based on single population applicable with different ancestries.
This ex-vivo study investigated the effect of a light-emitting diode (LED) curing light on depth penetration Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) into carious lesions. Twenty-four primary teeth with untreated caries lesions were allocated groups and treated within 5 min after extraction: (1) n = 6 for 1 one drop SDF followed by 10 sec rinse tap water, (2) exposed to LED 20 (30 total exposure) (3) (4) 3 untreated, (5) but sec. Samples prepared, embedded, sectioned silver was measured using...

Preparation of nerve ends is an essential part repair surgery. Multiple instruments have been described for this purpose; however, no consensus exists regarding which the least traumatic tissue handling. We believe that various used nerve-end excision will lead to different surface roughness. Median and ulnar nerves from fresh frozen cadavers were dissected, 1-2 cm lengths excised using a No. 11 blade, razor or pair scissors. Using electron microscopy, 3-dimensional analysis roughness (Sa)...

Such studies are only rarely reported literature. our work, E1001(1k), member large combinational library tyrosine-derived polycarbonates (TyrPC), was used to prepare two calcium phosphate hybrid, biodegradable bone scaffolds. one formulation, widely β-tricalcium (β-TCP) incorporated into polymer scaffold. second coating dicalcium dihydrate (DCPD,...
Extracting life history information from mineralized hard tissues of extant and extinct species is an ongoing challenge in evolutionary conservation studies. Primary lamellar bone a tissue with multidien periodicity that begins deposition prenatally continues until adulthood albeit concurrent resorption, thus maintaining record spanning several years individual’s life. Here, we use field-emission scanning electron microscopy energy-dispersive X-ray analysis to measure the relative...
Our objective in this study is to assess variation Havers‐Halberg oscillation (HHO) periodicities among domestic dogs ( Canis familiaris ). The HHO hypothesized be a biological rhythm controlled by the hypothalamus, acting as central coordinator of multiple life history variables including body size, metabolic rate, and reproductive output. periodicity clock varies within species, but not individuals. It has been studied detail primates, though very little other mammals. In monkeys apes,...
