- Geographic and environmental factors, particularly temperature, significantly influence the microbial communities in wild flies more than geographic location does.
- The microbiota composition varies based on diet, with wild flies showing different microbiota profiles depending on the type of food consumed, rather than simply reflecting their diet.
- Findings suggest that the interaction between the flies’ dietary habits, microbiota, and genetic differences contributes to local adaptation and evolution, especially in a single-orchard ecosystem.

Patients undergoing cardiac surgery may be especially vulnerable to the adverse effects of transfusion.
Methods: We conducted a randomized trial at multiple sites from 2010 to 2014.
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has been applied to an array of clinical scenarios. Its application within the oral and maxillofacial region continues to impress those involved with its use. Salivary gland imaging has been accomplished by standard radiographs, computed tomography, and more recently, CBCT.
