Local halide heterogeneity drives surface wrinkling in mixed-halide wide-bandgap perovskites.

Compositional heterogeneity in wide-bandgap (1.8 - 2.1 eV) mixed-halide perovskites is a key bottleneck in the processing of high-quality solution-processed thin films and prevents their application in efficient multijunction solar cells.

Does treating proximal cavities in primary molars non-restoratively affect intra-arch space and alignment of successor teeth negatively? A 4-year longitudinal study.

Background: Removing plaque with toothbrush and toothpaste from proximal cavities in primary molars without restoring them follows sound cariological principles. But does this treatment affect space for and alignment of their permanent successors negatively?

Hypothesis: There is no difference in impaction and displacement of the premolars, as well as in the D+E space in quadrants with three different statuses of the proximal surface of primary molars over a 4-year period.

Methods: A total of 936 quadrants (466 maxillary and 470 mandibular quadrants) in 233 children were assessed.

Etiology of Myocardial Injury in Critically Ill Patients with Sepsis: A Cohort Study.

Myocardial injury occurs frequently during sepsis and is independently associated with mortality. However, its etiology remains largely unknown. To assess the relative contributions of hyperinflammation, activated coagulation, and endothelial dysfunction to myocardial injury in critically ill patients with sepsis.

[Child-friendly restorations of primary molars using the Hall technique].

Minimally invasive dentistry is being used increasingly often, especially in paediatric dentistry. It involves replacing traditional 'drilling and filling' with treatment modalities that are tissue-saving and minimally burdensome to the patient. One of these techniques for treating carious dentine lesions is the Hall technique.

Survival estimates of atraumatic restorative treatment versus traditional restorative treatment: a systematic review with meta-analyses.

Objectives The hypothesis tested was that there is no significant difference between the survival estimates of atraumatic restorative treatment/high-viscosity glass-ionomer cement (ART/HVGIC) restorations, in posterior primary and permanent teeth, and traditional amalgam and resin composite restorations.Data sources The databases PubMed, DOAJ, LILACS, IndMed, Google Scholar and CNKI were searched.Data selection Using inclusion and exclusion criteria led to 14 eligible randomised trials.
