A 15-year-old female sought multidisciplinary treatment for hypodontia, three-dimensional problems, deep overbite, multiple occlusal interferences, and collapse of the occlusion. Through virtual-digital design with objective decomposition, this patient underwent five steps of orthodontic treatment under the guidelines of the principles: removal of occlusal restriction is a prerequisite; transverse problems are solved first; then sagittal problems; and vertical correction runs through the treatment. After orthodontic and prosthetic treatment, aesthetic appearance and functional occlusion were achieved. In complex multidisciplinary cases with three-dimensional problems, which makes it difficult to formulate the final goal, virtual-digital design under objective composition and standardized comprehensive principle are effective and necessary.

Background: In silico clinical trials are becoming more sophisticated and allow for realistic assessment and comparisons of medical image system models. These fully computational models enable fast and affordable trial designs that can closely capture trends seen on real clinical trials.
Purpose: To evaluate three breast imaging system models for digital mammography (DM) and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in a fully-in-silico longitudinal study.

Background And Objectives: This paper aims to extend research on the association between mother-child contact and adult children's psychological well-being in later-life families by differentiating between in-person, virtual, and written digital contact, examining the moderating role of children's gender, and exploring the processes that underlie these associations.
Research Design And Methods: Mixed-methods data were collected from 250 adult children nested within 131 families as part of the third wave of the Within-Family Differences Study. On average, adult children were 59 and mothers were 88 years of age.

This study assessed the feasibility and utility of a digital, all-virtual program designed for treatment of methamphetamine use disorder (MUD). Forty-nine adults with moderate- to severe-level MUD (per DSM-5 criteria) commenced the 8-week intervention. All aspects of the program were delivered via smartphone-based app.

Background: Substance use disorder is one of the severe public health problems worldwide. Inequitable resources, discrimination, and physical distances limit patients' access to medical help. Automated conversational agents have the potential to provide in-home and remote therapy.
