In an effort to expedite the publication of articles related to the COVID-19 pandemic, AJHP is posting these manuscripts online as soon as possible after acceptance. Accepted manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and copyedited, but are posted online before technical formatting and author proofing. These manuscripts are not the final version of record and will be replaced with the final article (formatted per AJHP style and proofed by the authors) at a later time.

Gaps remain in surgical education regarding the representation of skin tone diversity. To improve equity and prevent misdiagnosis leading to worsened health outcomes, efforts must be made to ensure educational photographs are representative of the diverse patient populations plastic surgery residents will be treated in their future practices. Four study investigators examined 96 h of recorded lecture seminars from a Canadian plastic surgery resident education curriculum from May 2020 to December 2021.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFiber-optic vibration sensors have been studied widely owing to their anti-electromagnetic interference, corrosion resistance, and ease of integration and distribution. Previous reports primarily focused on the frequency detection of vibration signals. However, the amplitude sensitivity, noise-equivalent amplitude (NEA), and stability determine the sensing precision and accuracy of the device.

Despite the growing interest in POV for FSO links, atmospheric turbulence (AT) induces phase distortions, resulting in POV-SK demodulation errors and degrading POV-SK FSO communication performance. The CViT demodulator utilizes conformal mapping to reshape the circular POV-SK patterns into rectangles, enabling more efficient feature learning.

Climate change is impacting forests in complex ways, with indirect effects arising from interactions between tree growth and reproduction often overlooked. Our 43-y study of European beech () showed that rising summer temperatures since 2005 have led to more frequent seed production events. This shift increases reproductive effort but depletes the trees' stored resources due to insufficient recovery periods between seed crops.

Background/purpose: Traditional dental education faces challenges, such as high student-to-faculty ratios and disruptions like the COVID-19 pandemic, which limit hands-on learning opportunities. Digital technologies, including intraoral scanners, offer potential solutions by improving accuracy and efficiency in clinical practice. This study explored the integration of digital tools in a self-directed learning model for the fixed prosthodontic tooth preparation.
