Background: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the loss of tooth-supporting tissues (or periodontium) leading to the formation of periodontal pocket then to tooth loss. Conventional therapies that involve tooth root debridement are still disappointing because they are more centered on periodontal repair than disease pathophysiology causes. The meta-analysis we present here focused on the results of experimental studies that investigated periodontal mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) therapy, a promising strategy to regenerate tissue, given to their immunomodulatory and trophic properties.
Methods: Using PubMed database and ICTRP search portal, 84 animal and 3 randomized human studies were analyzed.
Results: Overall, our results highlighted that MSCs grafting, regardless of their tissue origin, enhances periodontal regeneration. A defect morphology suitable for an initial clot stabilization increases the procedure efficacy, especially if cells are carried using a vehicle from natural origin. Nevertheless, methodological biases have been highlighted and still limit the translation to human with high prognosis and regulatory considerations. Besides, because only 2 randomized human trials demonstrated the efficacy of the procedure, further studies are needed to investigate periodontal regeneration procedures on experimental models closer to human pathophysiology.
Conclusion: Although MSCs grafting in periodontal disease demonstrated therapeutic benefits in animal, it is critical to define more accurately protocols translatable to human and focus on the treatment of the pathology as a whole rather than on the restitution of the sole destroyed tissues.

Nursing activity recognition has immense importance in the development of smart healthcare management and is an extremely challenging area of research in human activity recognition. The main reasons are an extreme class-imbalance problem and intra-class variability depending on both the subject and the recipient. In this paper, we apply a unique two-step feature extraction, coupled with an intermediate feature 'Angle' and a new feature called mean min max sum to render the features robust against intra-class variation.

This study presents a web application for predicting cardiovascular disease (CVD) and hypertension (HTN) among mine workers using machine learning (ML) techniques. The dataset, collected from 699 participants at the Gol-Gohar mine in Iran between 2016 and 2020, includes demographic, occupational, lifestyle, and medical information. After preprocessing and feature engineering, the Random Forest algorithm was identified as the best-performing model, achieving 99% accuracy for HTN prediction and 97% for CVD, outperforming other algorithms such as Logistic Regression and Support Vector Machines.

Recently, RNA velocity has driven a paradigmatic change in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) studies, allowing the reconstruction and prediction of directed trajectories in cell differentiation and state transitions. Most existing methods of dynamic modeling use ordinary differential equations (ODE) for individual genes without applying multivariate approaches. However, this modeling strategy inadequately captures the intrinsically stochastic nature of transcriptional dynamics governed by a cell-specific latent time across multiple genes, potentially leading to erroneous results.
