Objective: The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of two different penetration depths of micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement over 60 days. In addition, the amount of pain and discomfort caused by the MOP was evaluated.
Materials And Methods: A total of 22 patients (18-30 years) who need fixed orthodontic treatment were recruited and randomly assigned into two groups.

Object handover is a fundamental task for collaborative robots, particularly service robots. In in-home assistance scenarios, individuals often face constraints due to their posture and declining physical functions, necessitating high demands on robots for flexible real-time control and intuitive interactions. During robot-to-human handovers, individuals are limited to making perceptual judgements based on the appearance of the object and the consistent behaviour of the robot.

This article investigates whether English positive-negative alternating causal clauses and active-passive alternating syntactic structures make a difference in social event attribution of Chinese-L1 English-L2 learners. Results of sentence completion tasks show that there is no across-the-board language effect on attribution tendencies to the patient, the agent and the interactive parties, which are the constituents of the target sentences, but passive structures induce more attribution to the patient than its counterparts, and that L2 learners exhibit a gradience of attribution preferences for the patient, followed by the agent and the interactive parties in whichever clause or syntactic conditions. The causal reasoning patterns found in this study failed to support the claim of Linguistic Relativity, while validating the hypothesis regarding the patient-directed Causal Asymmetry Bias.

Purpose: Speech disorders associated with velopharyngeal dysfunction (VPD) are common. Some require surgical management, while others are responsive to speech therapy. This is related to whether the speech error is obligatory (passive) or compensatory (active).
