Despite substantial evidence for their effectiveness, the adoption of alcohol screening and brief interventions (ASBI) in routine primary care remains inconsistent. Financial incentive schemes were introduced in England between 2008 and 2015 to encou...
Background: Dental professionals are particularly susceptible to occupational stress and burnout, which are amplified during armed conflicts. Civilian dentists continuing to provide care under wartime conditions face unique psychological challenges....
This study investigated the effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on bone healing around implants placed in elevated sinus cavities. Forty New Zealand albino rabbits were divided into eight groups, based on the time of sacrifice (14 or 40 days) and th...
Background: Tooth loss causes alveolar bone resorption, which may hinder the ability of implant placement. Socket preservation with immediate implant placement is one of the methods used to reduce bone resorption. In this retrospective study, we eval...
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease driven by the accumulation of bacterial plaque and the host’s immune response, leading to the destruction of periodontal tissues. Nutrition, particularly the intake of micronutrients with anti-inf...
This study evaluated the microbial growth profile of subgingival multispecies biofilm on 3D-printable resin-based composites (PRBCs). A 96-well cell plate cultivated a 39-species biofilm associated with periodontitis over 7 days. Cylindrical specimen...
Evidence has shown the clear positive effects of nature-based products on biofilm control and improved gingival health. However, most studies have used in vitro models, have tested single natural components, or have not evaluated proteomic changes af...
In recent times, global cities have been transforming from traditional cities to sustainable smart cities. In text sentiment analysis (SA), many people face critical issues namely urban traffic management, urban living quality, urban information secu...
We explore quantum well laser diodes for applications in pulse oximetry based on two material systems, namely, classical AlGaAs and a rather exotic GaAsBi, with lasing at around 800 nm and 1100 nm, respectively. These spectral regions and material fa...
The Cimabanshuo deposit, situated in the western Gangdese Belt, is a recently discovered porphyry Cu deposit formed in a post-collisional setting, approximately 10 km from the giant Zhunuo porphyry Cu deposit. Despite its proximity to Zhunuo, Cimaban...
