We propose a feasible and efficient dynamic multiparty quantum private comparison protocol that is fully secure against participant attacks. In the proposed scheme, two almost-dishonest third parties generate two random keys and send them to all participants. Every participant independently encrypts their private information with the encryption keys and sends it to the third parties. The third parties can analyze the equality of all or some participants' secrets without gaining access to the secret information. New participants can dynamically join the protocol without the need for any additional conditions in the protocol. We provide detailed correctness and security analysis of the proposed protocol. Our security analysis of the proposed protocol against both inside and outside attacks proves that attackers cannot extract any secret information.

Background And Objectives: Pediatric testicular torsion is a surgical emergency with known health disparities. The US News and World Report is an American media company that ranks colleges and hospitals based on annually published criteria. Hospitals that complied with the US News and World Report's (USNWR) Speed in Treating Testicular Torsion (SiTTT) metric saw improved surgical testicular salvage rates, but the metric's impact in mitigating inequities in testicular torsion is unstudied.

Swallowing is a complex neuromuscular process involving the coordination of anatomical structures in the central and peripheral nervous systems. The posture of the head and neck plays a critical role in the biomechanics of swallowing, especially in populations with dysphagia. This systematic review aims to explore the impact of head-neck posture on swallowing kinematics and muscle activation, providing a multidisciplinary perspective for optimizing dysphagia management.

Patient-Centered Care (PCC) is currently recognized as the gold standard for the doctor-patient relationship, and numerous studies associate it with the improvement of various outcomes. However, the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the healthcare field challenges doctor-patient interactions as conceived within the PCC. This article proposes a critical and open reflection on the impact of integrating AI into healthcare systems.

Mitochondria are the powerhouses of cell and play crucial roles in proper oocyte competence, fertilization, and early embryo development. Maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations can have serious implications for individuals, leading to life-threatening disorders and contribute to ovarian ageing and female infertility due to poor oocyte quality. Mitochondrial replacement techniques (MRTs) have emerged as a promising approach not only to replace defective maternal mitochondria in patients carrying mtDNA mutations, but also to enhance oocyte quality and optimize IVF outcomes for individuals experiencing infertility.

It has been reported that the higher the parents' education level and income, the better language performance after cochlear implant (CI). We investigate whether socioeconomic factors (household income, parental education level, type of family, and location of residence) affect the language performance after CI even when all financial support for examination, hospitalization, surgery, and language rehabilitation program after CI was provided by a third-party. Of the 892 pediatric patients who underwent CI between 2007 and 2020 at our institution, data from 109 patients who received full financial support were analyzed retrospectively.
