Purpose: To analyze dynamic and static changes in the disc-condyle relationship in patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion after orthognathic surgery.

Methods: The surgical group comprised 30 patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion, and the magnetic resonance imaging and mandibular movement data were obtained at T0 (preoperatively), T1 (3 months postoperatively), and T2 (at the end of orthodontic treatment). The control group included 20 patients with normal occlusion, and the mandibular movement data were recorded.

Respiratory depression is a side effect of anesthetics. Treatment with specific antagonists or respiratory stimulants can reverse respiratory depression caused by anesthetics; however, they also interfere with the sedative effects of anesthetics. Previous studies have suggested that tandospirone may ameliorate respiratory depression without affecting the sedative effects of anesthetics.

Article Synopsis
  • Sulfide solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) show great potential for all solid-state batteries due to their high ionic conductivity and flexibility, but they are sensitive to moisture, making current manufacturing methods incompatible.
  • A new reversible surface modification technique using 1-undecanethiol enhances the moisture resistance of sulfide SSEs, allowing them to maintain conductivity above 1 mS cm even after 2 days of exposure to 33% relative humidity, which is significantly better than existing methods.
  • This modification involves a thiol group that adheres to the SSE surface and a hydrophobic tail that repels water, paving the way for more efficient and cost-effective sulfide SSE manufacturing in battery applications.

Quantum entanglement uncovers the essential principles of quantum matter, yet determining its structure in realistic many-body systems poses significant challenges. Here, we employ a protocol, dubbed entanglement microscopy, to reveal the multipartite entanglement encoded in the full reduced density matrix of the microscopic subregion in spin and fermionic many-body systems. We exemplify our method by studying the phase diagram near quantum critical points (QCP) in 2 spatial dimensions: the transverse field Ising model and a Gross-Neveu-Yukawa transition of Dirac fermions.

Background: Amino acids are known to play critical roles in cancer metabolism and progression. Among them, taurine, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), and cysteine have garnered particular attention due to their interconnected metabolic pathways. This study sought to explore the associations between serum levels of these amino acids and cancer risk within Chinese adults.
