Objective: To present a list of key points for good Temporomandibular Disorders (TMDs) clinical practice on behalf of the International Network for Orofacial Pain and Related Disorders Methodology (INfORM) group of the International Association for Dental, Oral and Craniofacial Research (IADR).

Methods: An open working group discussion was held at the IADR General Session in New Orleans (March 2024), where members of the INfORM group finalized the proposal of a list of 10 key points.

Results: The key points covered knowledge on the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment.

Article Synopsis
  • Targeting acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with CAR-T cells is complex due to the widespread expression of AML antigens in healthy cells and the variability between different patients and even within the same patient's tumor cells.
  • Single-cell analysis of 30 pediatric AML samples highlighted CD33, CD38, CD371, IL1RAP, and CD123 as key antigens, underscoring the need for multiple targeting strategies.
  • The study introduces a modular Adapter CAR platform that allows for flexible and effective targeting of these antigens, showing that combining targets can lead to better treatment outcomes in heterogeneous AML populations.

Introduction: This study assessed the accuracy of a TMD Pain Screener questionnaire in identifying patients with temporomandibular disorder (TMD) pain among those seeking endodontic treatment for tooth pain. It also investigated whether the screener accuracy could be improved by adding questions regarding putative predictors of TMD status.

Methods: One hundred patients seeking endodontic treatment for tooth pain were enrolled.
