Background: Simulation-based learning (SBL) and augmented reality (AR) /virtual reality (VR) are increasingly adapted and investigated globally to aid traditional teaching methods of clinical skills in several fields of clinical dentistry. This cross-sectional study was, therefore, aimed to assess the availability of such technology to Prosthodontics postgraduate trainees in Pakistan, as well as their introspective views regarding the effectiveness of adapting to simulation-based learning methods.
Method: Total population sampling yielded a sample of 200 participants.

Background: Cancer classification has consistently been a challenging problem, with the main difficulties being high-dimensional data and the collection of patient samples. Concretely, obtaining patient samples is a costly and resource-intensive process, and imbalances often exist between samples. Moreover, expression data is characterized by high dimensionality, small samples and high noise, which could easily lead to struggles such as dimensionality catastrophe and overfitting.

Probiotics are known to have favorable effects on human health. Nevertheless, probiotics are not always beneficial and can cause unintended adverse effects such as bacteremia and/or inflammation in immunocompromised patients. In the present study, we investigated the effects of probiotics on the regulation of bone metabolism under different health conditions and delivery routes.

Artificial intelligence (AI) provides considerable opportunities to assist human work. However, one crucial challenge of human-AI collaboration is that many AI algorithms operate in a black-box manner where the way how the AI makes predictions remains opaque. This makes it difficult for humans to validate a prediction made by AI against their own domain knowledge.
