Application of a deep learning model to determine midpalatal suture maturation stage on CBCT
DownloadFall 2024
Transverse maxillary deficiency is a condition characterized by a reduced transverse dimension of the upper jaw, commonly associated with posterior cross-bite, dental crowding, pharyngeal airway narrowing, and mouth breathing. Accurate staging of the mid-palatal suture (MPS) fusion is crucial for...

Current clinical islet cell transplantation relies solely on human cadavers as a source of graft tissue. Much research has been focused on neonatal porcine islets as an alternative due to their ability to be mass-produced, showing strikingly similar physiology and biological activity to human...

Evaluation of a novel palatal suture maturation classification as assessed by CBCT imaging of a pre- and post-expansion treatment cohort
DownloadFall 2017
Introduction: Evaluated is the novel midpalatal suture maturation classification and methodology proposed by Angelieri et al. (2013). Reliability testing was performed, followed by a retrospective observational longitudinal (cohort) study to evaluate the reliability and usefulness of this novel...

Molybdenum is a metal present in all forms of life. Most commonly, it forms the molybdenum cofactor (Moco) in the active site of molybdoenzymes. In bacteria, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) reductase is a molybdoenzyme that is part of the anaerobic respiratory chain. E. coli DMSO reductase (DmsABC)...
