A modified procedure for diploid treatment is proposed to disinhibit a functional scotoma and to develop binocular vision (BV) in children with squint. The procedure is to examine a special test object through rotary prisms and polaroid filters inserted into a modernized spectacle frame. During treatment there is an opportunity of simultaneously changing the color of the test object and the position of its image on the retina. The study enrolled children in whom previous traditional methods for BV recovery had failed. Treatment using the proposed procedure could recover bifoveal fusion in 88.3% of cases (as evidenced by synoptophore examination) and BY in 73.3% (as shown by scanning haploscopy).

In the Thirty-Meter-Telescope (TMT), a pair of wedge prisms with diameters of approximately 1500 mm are proposed to mitigate atmospheric dispersion across different zenith angles. This is achieved through controlled linear and rotary movements of the prisms. However, providing stable support for such large aperture prisms, with variable cross-sections and capable of rotating 360° around a horizontal optical axis, poses a significant challenge.

Aim Minimally invasive dentistry has been facilitated by advances in instruments and restorative materials. This study aims to compare the change in the shaping ability of the RECIPROC blue rotary system in both traditional and conservative access cavities, using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Material and methods Sixty root canals of 20 artificial maxillary molars were assigned into two groups (n=30 root canals) according to the access cavity design used: Group I: traditional access cavity (TAC) and Group II: conservative access cavity (CAC).

Porous frameworks constructed via noncovalent interactions show wide potential in molecular separation and gas adsorption. However, it remains a major challenge to prepare these materials from low-symmetry molecular building blocks. Herein, we report a facile strategy to fabricate noncovalent porous crystals through modular self-assembly of a low-symmetry helicene racemate.

This article presents the experimental datasets obtained from the histological/histochemical studies of endocrine disrupting effects of graphene oxide (GO) on thyroid follicles and gas gland (GG) cells of Japanese medaka larvae at the onset of maturity. The experiment was conducted on one day-post hatch (dph) starved fries (orange-red variety) immersed in different concentrations of GO (2.5-20.
