Purpose: To evaluate the effect of three brands of resin cement on the final color of ceramic veneers.
Methods: 50 disk-shaped ceramic specimens (IPS e.Max, 0.6mm×8.0mm diameter) and disk-shaped composite resin background specimens (4.0mm×8.0mm diameter) were prepared and divided into 10 groups (n=5). These paired specimens were bonded using ten shades of resin cement (Variolink Veneer, shades LV-3, LV-2, MV, HV+2, HV+3; Panavia F, shades light and brown; and RelyX™ Veneer, shades WO, TR, A3). A spectrophotometer (VITA Easyshade) was used to measure the color parameters (CIE L*a*b* values) of the paired disks before and after cementation. The color differences (ΔE values) after cementation were calculated and statistically analyzed by the One-way ANOVA (at the significant level p<0.05).
Results: The color parameters of the ceramic disks were measured in terms of the increase in L* value, and the decrease in Cab(*) value after bonding with the resin cement. The ΔE values of ceramic disks after cementation ranged from 1.38 to 7.16. The ΔE values were more than 3.3 when the ceramic disks were cemented with resin cements in shade HV+3 (4.90) and shade WO (7.16). One-way ANOVA of ΔE values revealed significant differences in the resin cement shades.
Conclusions: Resin cements can affect the final color of ceramic veneer restorations, and the extent of this effect varies according to the resin cement shades.

Pepper-YOLO: an lightweight model for green pepper detection and picking point localization in complex environments.

In the cultivation of green chili peppers, the similarity between the fruit and background color, along with severe occlusion between fruits and leaves, significantly reduces the efficiency of harvesting robots. While increasing model depth can enhance detection accuracy, complex models are often difficult to deploy on low-cost agricultural devices. This paper presents an improved lightweight Pepper-YOLO model based on YOLOv8n-Pose, designed for simultaneous detection of green chili peppers and picking points.

Background: Public health programs and policies can positively influence food environments. In 2016, a voluntary National Healthy Food and Drink Policy was released in New Zealand to improve the healthiness of food and drinks for hospital staff and visitors. However, no resources were developed to support policy implementation.

Hair follicle (HF) development and pigmentation are complex processes governed by various signaling pathways, such as TGF-β and FGF signaling pathways. Nestin + (neural crest like) stem cells are also expressed in HF stem cells, particularly in the bulge and dermal papilla region. However, the specific role and differentiation potential of these Nestin-positive cells within the HF remain unclear, especially regarding their contribution to melanocyte formation and hair pigmentation.

Rosehip is of notable scientific interest due to its rich content of bioactives and its wide-ranging applications in nutrition, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The valorization of rosehip by-products, such as pomace, is highly significant for promoting sustainability. This study investigates the development of rosehip-based powders and beverage prototypes derived from both juice and pomace to evaluate the potential use of pomace in instant beverage design and compare it with juice-based formulations.

Background: The prevalence and burden of atopic dermatitis (AD) are disproportionately high in individuals with skin of colour (SOC). Previous research shows that risk for xerosis and/or dyspigmentation is heightened in this population and may be more bothersome. However, there are no patient-reported instruments developed specifically for these disease sequelae in patients with SOC.
