Class III malocclusion is one of the most challenging malocclusions in orthodontics. Its nature and multifactorial etiology should be taken into consideration, especially in growing and adolescent patients. Many treatment modalities have been proposed.

Article Synopsis
  • The study identified sixteen compounds from the ethyl acetate extract of seeds related to a specific species and evaluated the wound-healing effects of a combination of BMMSCs and this extract in immunocompromised rats.
  • The combination therapy was found to reduce oxidative stress, lower pro-inflammatory cytokines, and inhibit NF-KB activation after 16 days.
  • Key genes linked to wound healing were identified, with pathways indicating positive effects on cell migration and locomotion, highlighting the potential of this approach in regenerative medicine, though further safety tests and clinical trials are needed.

Background:  Understanding the attributes of vertical patterns is essential for delivering optimal orthodontic care. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) represents a valuable resource for assessing the buccolingual inclination of the teeth. The present research delves into examining the buccolingual inclination of premolars in nongrowing individuals exhibiting diverse vertical facial patterns.

Offspring sex ratios in avian species are of significant scientific interest, with implications for evolutionary biology and poultry production. This study investigated sex ratios in Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica), a valuable model for other poultry species due to its rapid generation interval. The study examined the impact of selection over generations, age at first egg (AFE), and body weight at AFE (BW) on offspring sex ratios.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study developed a new device for preparing autologous skin cell suspension (ASCS) containing melanocytes to treat stable vitiligo, which is often difficult to repigment using conventional methods.
  • - In a trial involving 25 subjects, the ASCS treatment showed significant effectiveness, with 36% of lesions achieving at least 80% repigmentation after 24 weeks, compared to none in the control group.
  • - The results suggest that ASCS could be a promising treatment for stable vitiligo, potentially enhancing patients' quality of life, although the small sample size limits deeper analysis.
