Introduction: Alterations in occlusal relationships in individuals with complete edentulism considerably disrupt the equilibrium of the stomatognathic system. Evaluation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is crucial during the edentulous phase, as it influences both aesthetic and functional outcomes. This investigation sought to assess alterations in condylar positioning one year after the placement of complete dentures in edentulous patients, with additional objectives to examine variations based on sex and side.

Although LFH is associated with increased fibrosis in the dorsal layer, comprehensive research exploring the characteristics of the ECM and its mechanical properties in both regions is limited. Furthermore, the distribution of fibrosis-associated myofibroblasts within LFH remains poorly understood.

Gastrointestinal (GI) health underpins systemic well-being, yet the complexity of gut physiology poses significant challenges to understanding disease mechanisms and developing effective, personalized therapies. Traditional models often fail to capture the intricate interplay between epithelial, mesenchymal, immune, and neuronal cells that govern gut homeostasis and disease. Over the past five years, advances in organoid technology have created physiologically relevant, three-dimensional GI models that replicate native tissue architecture and function.
