We aimed to explore the best orthodontic step distance of the right upper central incisor with mild, moderate, and severe pathological displacement achieved a clear aligner. Three-dimensional models of maxilla-tooth-periodontal ligament clear aligner of the right upper central incisors with five different steps of 0.1, 0.125, 0.15, 0.165, 0.25 mm and three different alveolar bone heights were established finite element analysis. We analysed the changing trends in initial displacement, the periodontal ligament, the alveolar bone, and apical stress of right upper central incisor. In the process of retraction, the right upper central incisor a movement trend of the crown deviating from the distal root to the mesial, and with the decrease of the height of the alveolar bone and the increase of the displacement, the crown would appear distal labial torsion with a deepening trend of vertical overlay.The maximum stress distribution of the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone showed a positive correlation. The overall stress distribution of the periodontal ligament and apical stress increased with decrease of alveolar bone height and the increase of alveolar bone displacement. In patients with mild, moderate, and severe pathological displacement of the right upper central incisor, the best step distance of anterior tooth retraction is 0.165, 0.15, and 0.125 mm, respectively.

This study introduces a novel landfill cover material, employing lake sediment as a substrate, stabilised with fly ash, slag, desulfurisation gypsum and construction waste. The mechanical properties, including shear strength parameters, unconfined compressive strength, hydraulic conductivity, volumetric shrinkage, and water content, of the solidified sludge were evaluated. The microscopic mechanism of the solidified sludge were investigated through XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDS techniques.

The efficient isolation and molecular analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from whole blood at single-cell level are crucial for understanding tumor metastasis and developing personalized treatments. The viability of isolated cells is the key prerequisite for the downstream molecular analysis, especially for RNA sequencing. This study develops a laser-induced forward transfer -assisted microfiltration system (LIFT-AMFS) for high-viability CTC enrichment and retrieval from whole blood.

Caesarean myomectomy in pregnant women with uterine fibroids.

Cochrane Database Syst Rev

January 2025

Liverpool Reviews and Implementation Group, Department of Health Data Science, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK.

Rationale: Postpartum haemorrhage, defined as a blood loss of 500 mL or more within 24 hours of birth, is the leading global cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus, and affect an increasing number of women. Caesarean myomectomy is the surgical removal of fibroids during a caesarean section.

Intranasal oxytocin for apathy in people with frontotemporal dementia (FOXY): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, adaptive, crossover, phase 2a/2b superiority trial.

Lancet Neurol

Department of Clinical Neurological Sciences, University of Western Ontario, London, ON, Canada; Department of Cognitive Neurology, St Joseph's Health Care London, London, ON, Canada. Electronic address:

Background: No treatments exist for apathy in people with frontotemporal dementia. Previously, in a randomised double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-finding study, intranasal oxytocin administration in people with frontotemporal dementia improved apathy ratings on the Neuropsychiatric Inventory over 1 week and, in a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study, a single dose of 72 IU oxytocin increased blood-oxygen-level-dependent signal in limbic brain regions. We aimed to determine whether longer treatment with oxytocin improves apathy in people with frontotemporal dementia.
