Fatigue behavior of zirconia with microgrooved surfaces produced using femtosecond laser.

Femtosecond laser is a promising surface treatment tool for zirconia implant. In this study, the fatigue behavior of zirconia specimens with microgrooved surfaces formed by femtosecond laser is reported. One hundred sixty CAD/CAM zirconia bars (20 mm × 4 mm × 1.

Identification of Prognostic Biomarkers for Glioblastoma Based on Transcriptome and Proteome Association Analysis.

Objective: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant primary brain tumor in adults. This study aimed to identify significant prognostic biomarkers related to GBM.

Methods: We collected 3 GBM and 3 healthy human brain samples for transcriptome and proteomic sequencing analysis.

GNG5 is a novel oncogene associated with cell migration, proliferation, and poor prognosis in glioma.

Background: Although many biomarkers have been reported for detecting glioma, the prognosis for the disease remains poor, and therefore, new biomarkers need to be identified. GNG5, which is part of the G-protein family, has been associated with different malignant tumors, though the role of GNG5 in glioma has not been studied. Therefore, we aimed to identify the relationship between GNG5 and glioma prognosis and identify a new biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of gliomas.

Differential DNA Methylation Profiles in Patients with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and Hippocampal Sclerosis ILAE Type I.

Hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is one of the most prevalent pathological types of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), and it significantly affects patient prognoses. The methylation of DNA plays an important role in the development of epilepsy. However, few studies have focused on HS subtypes to determine DNA methylation profiles in TLE.

Phase retardation measurement of an arbitrary wave plate based on magneto-optical modulating and residue detecting of the base frequency component of the signal.

Wave plates (WPs) are key components in optical polarization systems whose phase retardations should be measured accurately. The key point of most light extinction methods focuses on how to precisely judge the system's extinction state and then confirm corresponding angle positions of the optical components. Usually the extinction state of a measurement system is judged by detecting residue of outgoing light intensity.
