Radioanatomical characteristics of zygoma for planning of quad zygoma implants: a cross sectional study.

Purpose: To evaluate the radioanatomical measurements of the zygoma as a guide for treatment planning of quad zygomatic implant placement.

Methods: This cross sectional study was carried on 17 patients of 34 zygomatic regions reported with atrophic maxilla for placement of zygomatic implants. The zygomatic implants were placed virtually in a quad approach using "Real Guide" version 3.

3,3'-Diindolylmethane (DIM): A Molecular Scaffold for Inhibition of WWP1 and WWP2, Members of the NEDD4 Family HECT E3 Ligases.

Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a metabolic derivative of glucobrassicin found in cruciferous vegetables. Known for its anticarcinogenic properties, I3C has been shown to target the NEDD4 family HECT E3 ligases, NEDD4-1 and WWP1, yet confirmation for the latter is lacking. Here, we characterize the interactions of I3C and a set of 17 derivatives with WWP1 and its homologue, WWP2.

Discrepancies in Aggregate Patient Data between Two Sources with Data Originating from the Same Electronic Health Record: A Case Study.

Background:  Data exploration in modern electronic health records (EHRs) is often aided by user-friendly graphical interfaces providing "self-service" tools for end users to extract data for quality improvement, patient safety, and research without prerequisite training in database querying. Other resources within the same institution, such as Honest Brokers, may extract data sourced from the same EHR but obtain different results leading to questions of data completeness and correctness.

Objectives:  Our objectives were to (1) examine the differences in aggregate output generated by a "self-service" graphical interface data extraction tool and our institution's clinical data warehouse (CDW), sourced from the same database, and (2) examine the causative factors that may have contributed to these differences.

Economics and Equity of Large Language Models: Health Care Perspective.

Large language models (LLMs) continue to exhibit noteworthy capabilities across a spectrum of areas, including emerging proficiencies across the health care continuum. Successful LLM implementation and adoption depend on digital readiness, modern infrastructure, a trained workforce, privacy, and an ethical regulatory landscape. These factors can vary significantly across health care ecosystems, dictating the choice of a particular LLM implementation pathway.

Epigenetic programming of obesity in early life through modulation of the kynurenine pathway.

Childhood obesity is a global health concern that has its origins before birth. Although genetics plays a crucial role, increasing evidence suggests that epigenetic modifications during fetal life could also influence its incidence. In this model, during the fetal period, interactions between genetic makeup, intrauterine factors, and environmental conditions, increase the risk of childhood obesity.
