A Content Analysis of #Childhoodcancer Chatter on X.

Over a half million children are living with cancer in the United States. Social media platforms offer unique opportunities for cancer communication by public health organizations as well as health care providers, scientists, patients, and caregivers. Given the dearth of research on childhood cancer communication, the present study aimed to examine the nature of tweets on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that used the hashtag #childhoodcancer, the types of these tweets that attracted the most retweets, the types of users tweeting about childhood cancer (e.

Difference in survival and prognosis between malignant tumors of odontogenic origin.

Introduction: The prognosis of metastatic ameloblastoma (METAM), now defined as a benign tumor, and malignant odontogenic tumors (MOT) is poorly studied in the literature. The aim of this study was to determine the prognosis and factors influencing the survival of these patients.

Material And Methods: Using the SEER database, we retrieved clinical data of patients with malignant tumors of dental origin between 1975 and 2020.

Submandibular gland transfer into the temporal fossa in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma: A viable option to prevent radiation-induced xerostomia.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is associated with an important mortality and morbidity related to surgery and radiotherapy. In particular, radiation-induced xerostomia has a major impact on patient's quality of life. Although intensity-modulated radiation therapy allowed mean dose reduction to the spared submandibular gland (SMG) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, xerostomia is still an important sequela for patients treated for an OSCC.

"You should smile more": Population-level sex differences in smiling also exist in autistic people.

Societal expectations for social-emotional behavior differ across sexes; however, diagnostic definitions of autism do not account for this when delineating "typical" versus "atypical." This study examines sex differences in autism in one behavior associated with strong gender biases: smiling. Computer vision was used to quantify smiling in 60 autistic (20 female) and 67 neurotypical (25 female) youth during conversations.

Mandibular revascularization using a humeral periosteal free flap: A technical note.

The vascularized periosteal free flap transposes a non-irradiated soft tissue with neoangiogenesis, bone induction, and osteogenesis qualities. A surgical technique using a humeral periosteal free flap is described for the treatment of recurrent osteoradionecrosis of the lower jaw. The humeral periosteal free flap is a technique associated with low morbidity.
