In recent years, the growing and widespread usage of Internet of Things (IoT) systems has led to the emergence of customized structures dependent on these systems. Industrial IoT (IIoT) is a subset of IoT in terms of applications and usage areas. IIoT presents many participants in various domains, such as healthcare, transportation, agriculture, and manufacturing.

Background: Sacral fractures are uncommon and understanding three-dimensional morphology is needed to obtain proper treatment. The purpose of this study was to identify the repeatable fracture patterns and comminution zones for traumatic sacral fractures and create fracture maps.

Methods: Computerized tomography images of 72 patients with traumatic sacral fracture were included in the study.

Introduction: The aim of this prospective study was to assess temporomandibular joint (TMJ) condyle-disc positions at the sagittal and coronal planes of magnetic resonance images (MRIs) before and after rapid maxillary expansion (RME).

Methods: The study included 18 subjects (11 girls, 7 boys) with a mean age of 12.54 years with unilateral or bilateral posterior crossbite that included at least 3 posterior teeth.

Introduction: In this prospective clinical study, we used bilateral temporomandibular joint (TMJ) magnetic resonance images (MRIs) to investigate the condylar response to rapid maxillary expansion (RME).

Methods: Bilaterial MRIs of the TMJs of 18 subjects (11 girls, 7 boys; mean age, 12.54 years; range, 9.

Introduction: In this prospective clinical study, we investigated the effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) on the electromyographic (EMG) activities of the anterior temporal and superficial masseter muscles.

Methods: The sample included 18 subjects (11 girls, 7 boys; mean age, 12.54 years) with unilateral or bilateral posterior crossbites involving 3 or more posterior teeth.

Objective: To examine inconsistencies in the differential diagnosis of open bite.

Materials And Methods: Using visual judgments, a total of 77 anterior open-bite cases in the postpubertal growth period were grouped as either morphogenetic, functional, or combination. The same sample was also grouped as either hyperdivergent, normodivergent, or hypodivergent using mandibular-plane angle and conventional cephalometry.
