Acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis (AHL) is a rare and usually fatal disease characterized by an acute onset of neurological abnormalities. We describe the case of a 37-year-old man with biphasic AHL with a focus on the rare involvement of the brain stem and cerebellum. Initial computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging revealed two hemorrhagic foci in the left middle cerebellar peduncle. After 15 days multifocal hematomas in the contralateral cerebellar hemisphere were imaged using CT. The pathological diagnosis was AHL. Following high-dose steroid treatment, the patient recovered with minor neurological sequelae.

CPR related injuries of the chest wall: direct and indirect fractures.
Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg

Department of Trauma and Orthopedic Surgery, University Hospital Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), Erlangen, Germany.
Background: Rib and sternum fractures are common injuries associated with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The fracture mechanism is either direct by application of force on sternum and anterior ribs or indirect by bending through compression of the thorax. The aim of this study was to determine morphologies of rib fractures after CPR and to reevaluate prior findings on fracture localisation, type and degree of dislocation.

Aim: Ultrasonography (US) has shown accuracy in imaging healthy periodontium. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of US for estimating dimensions of inflamed periodontium induced by ligature and bacteria.
Methods: Periodontal tissues of maxillary as well as mandibular premolars and molars in six female mini pigs were treated with ligature and three strains of bacteria for 4-10 weeks.
Comparison of mechanical properties and shaping performance of ProGlider and ProTaper ultimate slider.

Department of Conservative Dentistry, College of Dentistry, Kyung Hee University, 26-6, Kyungheedae-ro, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul, 02453, Republic of Korea.
Background: This study aims to compare design, phase transformation behavior, and torsional resistance of the ProGlider (PG) and ProTaper ultimate slider (PUS) and to compare the performance of two files in the glide-path preparation of a double-curved artificial canal.
Methods: Scanning electron microscopy, micro-computed tomography, and differential scanning calorimetry were used to characterize the samples. A torsional resistance test was performed to obtain ultimate strength and distortion angle.
Article Synopsis
- Deep learning methods show strong potential for predicting lung cancer risk from CT scans, but there's a need for more comprehensive comparisons and validations of these models in real-world settings.
- The study reviews 21 state-of-the-art deep learning models, analyzing their performance using CT scans from a subset of the National Lung Screening Trial, with a focus on malignant versus benign classification.
- Results reveal that 3D deep learning models generally outperformed 2D models, with the best 3D model achieving an AUROC of 0.86 compared to 0.79 for the best 2D model, emphasizing the need to choose appropriate pretrained datasets and model types for effective lung cancer risk prediction.
Evaluation of sticky bone in guided bone regeneration in the aesthetic area of the anterior teeth: a retrospective study.

The retrospective study aimed to compare the space-maintaining effects of sticky bone (bone graft matrix enriched with injectable platelet-rich fibrin) and titanium mesh for bone augmentation in the aesthetic zone. Patients who underwent single implant placement and had type 2/4 alveolar bone defects (buccal bone wall loss is >50% of the expected implant length) were screened for inclusion in this study. The labial bone plate width was measured at 1, 3, and 5 mm below the apical implant platform on cone beam computed tomography images taken immediately and 6 months after surgery.
