The combination of gelatin and hydroxyapatite (HA) has emerged as a promising strategy in dental tissue engineering due to its favorable biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and ability to support cellular activities essential for tissue regeneration, rendering them ideal components for hard tissue applications. Besides, precise control over interconnecting porosity is of paramount importance for tissue engineering materials. Conventional methods for creating porous scaffolds frequently encounter difficulties in regulating pore size distribution.

The objective of this study was to compare the clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of CTS patients with dropping objects (wDO) and those without dropping objects (w/oDO). The study evaluated the correlation between DO symptoms and median partial conduction block, as well as the reduction in median motor conduction velocity at the wrist.

The syndrome is predominantly caused by mutations in the MECP2. This study aimed to use comprehensive multi-omic analysis to identify the molecular and metabolic alterations associated with Rett syndrome.

- - Gorlin syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that increases the risk of certain cancers and is primarily caused by genetic mutations that disrupt the sonic hedgehog signaling pathway.
- - The study highlights clinical features and genetic variations from nine patients in three families, finding various physical signs like macrocephaly and odontogenic keratocysts, which are key to diagnosis.
- - Early recognition of Gorlin syndrome is crucial, especially in patients with specific symptoms, and thorough examination of family members can help identify more individuals affected by the syndrome.
