Purpose: Ollier's disease (multiple enchondromatosis) can cause severe lower limb length discrepancy and deformity in children. Osteotomy and limb lengthening with external fixation can correct the lower extremity deformity. There may be lesions in the osteotomy part (OP), and the internal fixation part of the external fixation(FP).

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the dental and skeletal stability one year after Miniscrew-Assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion (MARPE) by using 3D image data.
Methods: Patients with transverse maxillary deficiency from the age of 16 onwards were enrolled consecutively in this prospective longitudinal cohort study. The MARPE appliance was digitally and individually designed and fabricated.

Background: Apolipoprotein E4 (E4) is the strongest genetic risk factor for sporadic Alzheimer's Disease (AD), and aging is the greatest overall risk factor for AD. Many cellular and molecular changes occur within the brain throughout aging, one of which being the increased bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) signaling. As APOE and BMPs are known to interact in non-neuronal organs, we hypothesized that enhanced BMP signaling in the brain may interact with APOE in a genotype-dependent manner to initiate or exacerbate neuropathological cascades relevant to AD.

Background: Molariform second premolar is a rare dental anomaly where the second premolar resembles a molar in size and shape. This condition is often linked to macrodontia, a rare enlargement of teeth that disrupts dental proportions and can manifest in isolated, relative, or generalized forms. Although mandibular second premolars are more prone to morphological variability, the occurrence of bilateral molariform premolars, induced by a unique form of gemination, is exceptionally uncommon and infrequently documented, thus making this case clinically significant.
