[Automatic ICD-10 coding : Natural language processing for German MRI reports].

Background: The medical coding of radiology reports is essential for a good quality of care and correct billing, but at the same time a complex and error-prone task.

Objective: To assess the performance of natural language processing (NLP) for ICD-10 coding of German radiology reports using fine tuning of suitable language models.

Material And Methods: This retrospective study included all magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiology reports acquired at our institution between 2010 and 2020.

Influence of an allogenic collagen scaffold on implant sites with thin supracrestal tissue height: a randomized clinical trial.

Objectives: This randomized clinical trial focused on patients with thin peri-implant soft-tissue height (STH) (≤ 2.5 mm) and investigated the impact of an allogenic collagen scaffold (aCS) on supracrestal tissue height and marginal bone loss (MBL).

Material & Methods: Forty patients received bone level implants and were randomly assigned to the test group with simultaneous tissue thickening with aCS or the control group.

Targeting Stage-Specific Embryonic Antigen 4 (SSEA-4) in Triple Negative Breast Cancer by CAR T Cells Results in Unexpected on Target/off Tumor Toxicities in Mice.

Due to the paucity of targetable antigens, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains a challenging subtype of breast cancer to treat. In this study, we developed and evaluated a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell-based treatment modality for TNBC by targeting stage-specific embryonic antigen 4 (SSEA-4), a glycolipid whose overexpression in TNBC has been correlated with metastasis and chemoresistance. To delineate the optimal CAR configuration, a panel of SSEA-4-specific CARs containing alternative extracellular spacer domains was constructed.

Cleaning potential of interdental brushes around orthodontic brackets - an in vitro investigation.

This study evaluated the brushing efficacy of different interdental brushes around a multibracket appliance in vitro. In four models displaying misaligned and aligned teeth with and without attachment loss, the brushing capacities of three interdental brushes (IDB) were tested: A waist-shaped IDB with a diameter of 9 mm at both ends and 5 mm in the middle (B1), a cylindrical brush with a diameter of 9 mm (B2) and one with 5 mm (B3). Before cleaning, the black teeth in the respective models were stained white with titanium (IV) oxide and the percentage of cleaned surface was planimetrically assessed.
