Aim: To evaluate surface roughness (SR), color stability (CS), and color masking as assessed through the relative translucency parameter (RTP) of different provisional restoration materials before and after water thermocycling (TC).

Materials And Methods: Four different provisional materialas were selected: acrylic resin, bis-acryl resin, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) CAD/CAM blocks, and 3D-printed provisional resin. Samples of 0.6- and 1.3-mm thickness were obtained, and SR, CS, and RTP were determined before and after the samples were submitted to 6000 cycles of TC. A rugosimeter was used to assess SR. Color was determined on white and black backgrounds before and after TC, and color masking was assessed through RTP. CS was determined using a spectrophotometer with the CIEDE2000 formula, before and after TC.

Results: SR values before and after TC ranged from -0.01 to 0.28 for 1.3 mm, and from 0.00 to 0.38 for 0.6 mm, respectively. CS (ΔE00 values) ranged from 0.53 to 4.38 for 1.3 mm, and from 0.70 to 5.66 for 0.6 mm, respectively. The highest value was obtained for 3D-printed resin. Finally, for RTP values, the difference before and after TC ranged from -0.036 to 2.66 for 1.3 mm, and from 0.52 to 2.57 for 0.6 mm, respectively, with the PMMA CAD/CAM block being the material with the lowest values in both cases.

Conclusion: Values of SR, CS, and RTP varied among different materials and thicknesses. The overall performance of 3D-printed resin was inferior to ?that of the other materials. The PMMA CAD/CAM block obtained the overall best values for the conditions tested.

The role of inhibition in the processing of peripheral cues.

Psychol Res

January 2025

Institute of Cognition, Emotion, and Methods in Psychology, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.

The present study investigated the role of inhibition in peripheral cueing by nonpredictive cues. Based on past findings, we investigated the possibility that inhibition of learned irrelevant cue colors is typical of short cue-target intervals, with more competition for attention capture between cue versus target. In line with the expectation, in a modified contingent-capture protocol, with short cue-target intervals, we found same-location costs (SLCs) - that is, disadvantages for validly cued targets (cue = target position) compared to invalidly cued targets (cue ≠ target position) with consistently colored non-matching cues.

Objective: Success of resin infiltration for the masking of MIH-lesions remains difficult to predict, prompting suggestions to adjust the treatment protocol. This exploratory in vivo study aims to evaluate whether monitoring the resin infiltration process using transmitted light, compared to ambient light, enables a better estimation of when the infiltration process is completed, and to assess how the treatment success, i.e.

This study introduced a novel approach to 3D image segmentation utilizing a neural network framework applied to 2D depth map imagery, with Z axis values visualized through color gradation. This research involved comprehensive data collection from mechanically harvested wild blueberries to populate 3D and red-green-blue (RGB) images of filled totes through time-of-flight and RGB cameras, respectively. Advanced neural network models from the YOLOv8 and Detectron2 frameworks were assessed for their segmentation capabilities.
