Introduction Surgical management of level V in clinically node positive (cN+) oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC) is controversial. The objectives of the study were to identify predictors of level V metastases in cN+ OSCC. Methods This retrospective study is based on institutional data of operated cN+ OSCC between April 2018 and December 2022.

For higher production of this species, the molecular mechanisms underlying its reproductive physiology is an important aspect to study. Vegetable oils are rich in ω3 and ω6 fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins, that enhance reproductive performances.

Fullprof-assisted Rietveld refinement analysis, performed using the Match software, has revealed the orthorhombic nature of CeFeO. In addition, in the synthesized material, the cubic phase byproduct CeO was found due to the highly oxidizing nature of the cerium element.
