Introduction: This longitudinal study assessed the intermaxillary and intraarch relationships from mixed to permanent dentitions during a 4-year follow-up.
Methods: The sample comprised 352 children evaluated for crowding, midline maxillary diastema, anterior spacing, overjet, overbite, and sagittal and transverse relationships in mixed (T1) and permanent (T2) dentition. Data between different time points were compared using McNemar and Bowker symmetry tests, with a significance level of 5%.
Results: Of the 352 children evaluated over a 4-year follow-up period, significant changes were observed in the intraarch and intermaxillary relationships from T1 to T2. The intraarch relationship showed significant decreases in crowding (61.3%), maxillary midline diastema (74.3%), and anterior spacing (82.2%) (P <0.0001). Regarding the intermaxillary relationship, statistically significant changes were observed in the overjet (P = 0.003), overbite (P = 0.004), and anteroposterior (P <0.0001) and transverse relationships (P <0.0001). In addition, 43.1% of children had increased overjet at T1 and normal overjet at T2, 29.3% of children with a Class II relationship at T1 and Class I relationship at T2, 70.5% of children with posterior crossbite and normal transverse relationship at T2, and 73.9% of children with anterior open bite and normal overbite at T1 and average overbite at T2.
Conclusions: Significant favorable changes in intraarch relationships were observed during the transition from mixed to permanent dentition. Children also show changes in intermaxillary relationships, with a potential improvement in occlusion of the permanent dentition.

Reaction Time as a Proxy for Presence in Mixed Reality with Distraction.
IEEE Trans Vis Comput Graph
March 2025
Distractions in mixed reality (MR) environments can significantly influence user experience, affecting key factors such as presence, reaction time, cognitive load, and Break in Presence (BIP). Presence measures immersion, reaction time captures user responsiveness, cognitive load reflects mental effort, and BIP represents moments when attention shifts from the virtual to the real world, breaking immersion. While prior work has established that distractions impact these factors individually, the relationship between these constructs remains underexplored, particularly in MR environments where users engage with both real and virtual stimuli.

The physics of defect chemistry and the chemistry of defect physics.

Defect chemistry is the classical approach to evaluate point-defect concentrations in solids depending on the chemical activity of the ( - 1) of constituents by evaluating the mass action laws of a number of defect reactions conserving species, lattice sites, and charge. In an alternative approach, formation energies of individual defects can be calculated to determine the dependence on the Fermi level and on the chemical potentials of the reservoirs. This contribution provides the quantitative relationship between the two approaches, offering the opportunity to compare calculated defect formation energies with experimentally determined quantities.

Background: Retention of weight postpartum increases risk for long-term morbidity, including cardiometabolic disease. Although retained weight postpartum is a complex problem, interventions generally address individual diet and activity behaviors.
Objectives: We investigated the impact of social-network factors on postpartum health behaviors and weight.
The Association between Autism Spectrum Traits and Age-Related Spatial Working Memory Decline: A Large-Scale Longitudinal Study.

Background And Objectives: Based on mixed findings from previous research, researchers have hypothesised autism may be a protective or risk factor for age-related cognitive decline/dementia, or that autism does not influence it (parallel ageing). To differentiate between hypotheses, longitudinal studies that account for autism underdiagnosis, are needed and lacking. This study examined if higher autistic traits in adults aged 50+ are associated with a greater risk of spatial working memory (SWM) decline, a key cognitive domain affected in both healthy aging and autism.
