A rare case report: The value of fetal MRI to detect diprosopus twins.

Diprosopus is one of the rarest types of conjoined twins, caused by incomplete zygote separation in early pregnancy. It defines a condition with duplication of facial structures, monocephalic and 1 trunk. Early detection is difficult, but fetal MRI plays an important role in strengthening antenatal diagnosis of conjoined twin pregnancies and other major congenital abnormalities, complementing antenatal ultrasonography.

Mechanical properties and formulation of hydrophilic fiber and shrimp shell combination as a novel eco-friendly dental restoration material.

This study evaluates the mechanical properties and formulation of dental restoration material comprised of cellulose acetate (CA) from water hyacinth and chitosan (C) from white shrimp shells. The research phases included extraction, formulation, functional group testing, antibacterial, toxicity, water absorption and solubility, compressive, shear, tensile, hardness, microleakage, thermal expansion, and shrinkage. The experimental data were analyzed using probit regression, one-way ANOVA, and Kruskal-Wallis test.

Contextualizing sociocultural beliefs about cleft, knowledge of the treatments, and factors associated with delay of treatment in Eastern Indonesia.

Introduction: Indonesia is a multicultural Asian country with a high incidence of cleft. This study contextualizes how patients' sociocultural backgrounds hinder cleft management in a diverse nation.

Material And Methods: This study involved 202 families of cleft patients attending six tertiary care hospitals in South Sulawesi between 2021 and 2022.

Rapid deterioration in buried leather: archaeological implications.

Understanding archaeological leather degradation helps inform economies, crafts, and technologies of historic communities. However, archaeological leather is at high risk of degradation due to deterioration and changes within the burial conditions. This research applied non-destructive FTIR-ATR to experimentally buried vegetable-tanned leather and archaeological leather excavated at the Roman site of Vindolanda, UK to explore survival, destruction, and preservation processes of tanned leather.
