Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare time-course changes in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) space between mandibular advancement surgery and setback surgery after sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) and Le Fort I osteotomy.
Subjects And Methods: The subjects were 46 patients (92 joints) who underwent bi-maxillary surgery. The TMJ disc position was assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the anterior, superior, posterior, medial and lateral joint spaces were assessed by computed tomography (CT), preoperatively and at 1 week and 1 year postoperative. The 92 joints were divided into 2 groups, namely class II (n = 46 joints), and class III (n = 46 joints) (an advanced group vs a setback group). Next, the 92 joints were divided into 2 groups comprising 36 joints with anterior disc displacement joint (ADD group) and 56 joints without (non-ADD group). Time-course changes in the measurements were compared statistically between the advanced and setback groups, and between the ADD and non-ADD groups.
Results: There were no significant differences between the advance group and setback group regarding time-course change in all the joint spaces. However, there were significant differences between the ADD group and non-ADD group regarding time-course change in the medial, anterior, superior and posterior joint spaces (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: This study suggested that ADD could affect the time-course change in TMJ space and condylar position after bi-maxillary osteotomy.

While iron (Fe) is essential for life and plays important roles for almost all growth related processes, it can trigger cell death in both animals and plants. However, the underlying mechanisms for Fe-induced cell death in plants remain largely unknown. S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) has previously been reported to regulate nitric oxide homeostasis to prevent Fe-induced cell death within root meristems.

Diet-induced milk fat depression (MFD) caused by UFA, and low fiber diets results in an increase in alternate rumen biohydrogenation intermediates. The impact of these MFD-inducing diets on milk odd and branched chain fatty acids (OBCFA) is not well known. The first objective of this study was to characterize the time course of changes in OBCFA in milk fat during induction and recovery of MFD induced with a high UFA and low fiber diet in 3 separate experiments.

The complex gene regulatory landscape underlying early flower development in Arabidopsis has been extensively studied through transcriptome profiling, and gene networks controlling floral organ development have been derived from the analyses of genome wide binding of key transcription factors. In contrast, the dynamic nature of the proteome during the flower development process is much less understood. In this study, we characterized the floral proteome at different stages during early flower development and correlated it with unbiased transcript expression data.

: Despite the known impact of propofol and remifentanil on hemodynamics and patient outcomes, there is a lack of comprehensive quantitative analysis, particularly in surgical settings, considering the influence of noxious stimuli. The aim of this study was to develop a quantitative semi-mechanistic population model that characterized the time course changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) due to the effects of propofol, remifentanil, and different types of noxious stimulation related to the clinical routine. : Data from a prospective study were used; the study analyzed the effects of propofol and remifentanil general anesthesia on female patients in physical status of I-II according to the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA I-II) undergoing gynecology surgery.

The regeneration of myelin, or remyelination, occurs spontaneously following demyelination. The lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC)-induced focal demyelination model enables investigations into the mechanisms of remyelination, providing insight into the molecular basis underlying an evolving remyelinating microenvironment over a tractable time course.
