Development of a rapid and fruit-saving method for fatty acid composition analysis in olive: a comparative study on 27 cultivars
Front Plant Sci. 2024 Sep 4;15:1457518. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2024.1457518. eCollection 2024. ABSTRACT Fatty acid composition is an essential aspect of the qualitative assessment of olive oil. A method for evaluating and trending fatty acid composition of olive varieties directly from a limited amount of drupes, has been proven reliable in comparison with traditional oil analysis. No…
Compliance with Headgear Evaluated by Force- and Temperature-Sensitive Monitoring Device: A Case-Control Study
Bioengineering (Basel). 2024 Aug 5;11(8):789. doi: 10.3390/bioengineering11080789. ABSTRACT The aim was to objectively assess compliance in patients prescribed headgear and evaluate the impact of monitoring awareness, treatment duration, gender, and age on compliance levels. A total of 22 patients with Class II malocclusion wore the headgear integrated with the force and temperature sensitive Smartgear monitoring…

Tricortical versus bicortical anchorage in a double-screw tandem skeletal expander and a single-screw maxillary anchorage rapid palatal expander: A finite element analysis
Korean J Orthod. 2024 Jul 25. doi: 10.4041/kjod23.270. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: This study aims to employ finite element method (FEM) analysis to compare the differences between bicortical and tricortical anchorage of the posterior miniscrews in a single-screw miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) and a double-screw tandem skeletal expander (TSE) under open and…
Effects of orthodontic aligners on the ecological report of awake bruxism
J Oral Rehabil. 2024 Jul 18. doi: 10.1111/joor.13810. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The demand for orthodontic treatment with aligners has recently increased, but their effects on awake bruxism (AB) behaviours have to be evaluated yet. OBJECTIVES: This investigation assessed if aligners can affect oral behaviours (i.e. tooth contact, teeth clenching, teeth grinding and…

Immediate multivessel revascularization after myocardial infarction: change of strategy?
Eur Heart J Suppl. 2024 Apr 17;26(Suppl 1):i39-i43. doi: 10.1093/eurheartjsupp/suae015. eCollection 2024 Apr. ABSTRACT Multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) is a frequently encountered condition in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the culprit vessel. Several studies have demonstrated the benefit of complete coronary revascularization compared with the…
Soft-tissue profile changes in adult patients treated with premolar extractions
Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop. 2024 May 18:S0889-5406(24)00149-5. doi: 10.1016/j.ajodo.2024.04.011. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to identify the soft-tissue profile changes and the potential pretreatment cephalometric parameters that clinicians could use to predict the lip response after premolar extraction treatment in adult patients. METHODS: Pretreatment and posttreatment lateral…
