Purpose: To compare the trueness of the tissue surface of the complete denture base among the digital cutting complete denture, the digital 3D printing complete denture and the conventional complete denture.

Methods: Three edentulous patients were selected, and three complete dentures were made for each case. Cutting dentures (cutting group), 3D printed dentures(printing group) were considered as the experimental groups, traditional dentures (traditional group) were considered as the control group.

Mitochondrial dysfunction plays an important role in neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Herein, this work designs a mitochondria-targeted micelle CsA-TK-SS-31 (CTS) to block the progression of AD by simultaneously alleviating mitochondrial dysfunction in microglia and neurons. The mitochondria-targeted peptide SS-31 drives cyclosporin A (CsA) to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and delivers CsA to mitochondria of microglia and neurons in the brains of 5 × FAD mice.

Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) are widely used in modern electronics because they have both high transmittance and good conductivity, which is beneficial for many applications such as light-emitting diodes. Tailoring electronic states and hence the conductive types by design is important for developing new materials with optimal properties for TCOs. SnO, with a wide band gap, low cost, no toxins, and high stability, is a promising host material for TCOs.

Anastomotic leakage is a well-understood major complication of colorectal surgery and carries significant implications for patient morbidity and mortality. However, an infected collection fistulating through an otherwise healthy colorectal anastomosis can mimic an anastomotic leak and warrants different management to a primary anastomotic leak. Such a presentation is undocumented in the current literature.
