Protein and Polysaccharide Fibers via Air Jet Spinning: Emerging Techniques for Biomedical and Sustainable Applications.

Polymers play a critical role in the biomedical and sustainable materials fields, serving as key resources for both research and product development. While synthetic and natural polymers are both widely used, synthetic polymers have traditionally dominated due to their ability to meet the specific material requirements of most fiber fabrication methods. However, synthetic polymers are derived from non-renewable resources, and their production raises environmental and health concerns.

Adaptation of virtual surgical planning to midface reconstruction with intraoperative navigation: "navigation mediated midface reconstruction".

Objective: The production of 3-dimensional models and materials according to preoperative virtual surgical planning is a time-consuming process and causes high costs. We aimed to demonstrate the navigation mediated reconstruction of the patients who underwent the removal of a tumoral mass in midfacial region according to their preoperatively prepared surgical plannings.

Study Design: Patients who underwent the removal of tumoral mass and reconstruction in their midfacial region were included in the study.

A web scraping app for smart literature search of the keywords.

Detailed literature search and writing is very important for the success of long research projects, publications and theses. Search engines provide significant convenience in research processes. However, conducting a comprehensive and systematic research on the web requires a long working process.

The relationship between periodontal status, physical activity, dietary practices, and dental caries.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the correlation between dietary patterns, levels of physical activity (PA), and the occurrence of periodontal disease. Many lifestyles have been connected to periodontal disease, but little is known about diet and PA intake. This study included 185 people-62 healthy, 61 gingivitis, and 62 periodontitis.

Birth order, daycare attendance, and childhood socioeconomic status in relation to gingivitis: a cross-sectional study in Turkish young adults.

Aim: Birth order, sibship size, breastfeeding, daycare attendance, and delivery method are known to influence the development of gut microbiota and the immune system, affecting the risk of many infectious diseases. This study aims to explore the impact of these factors, along with socioeconomic background and familial factors, on gingivitis and oral hygiene practices in early adulthood among the Turkish population.

Materials And Methods: Patients were diagnosed using periodontal clinical and radiographic assessments, adhering to the 2017 World Workshop on the Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases and Conditions.
