The individualized prediction of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OC-SCC) is essential and should be as comprehensive as possible. The aim of this study was to identify new risk factors and develop nomograms comparing all...
Point mutations in the Peripheral Myelin Protein 22 (PMP22) gene comprise less than 5% of the Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) type 1 cases, and individualize either the CMT 1E subtype, or Hereditary Neuropathy with Liability to...
Accentuated lines in dental microstructure are hypothesized to correlate with potentially stressful life history events, but our understanding of when, how and why such accentuated lines form in relation to stressful events is...
We describe the lateral approach to the surgical repair of a total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in this video tutorial. The goal of the operation is to create an unobstructed anastomosis between the pulmonary confluence...
Gliomatosis peritonei (GP) is a rare clinical condition characterized by presence of mature glial cells in the peritoneum. Growing teratoma syndrome (GTS) is described as an uncommon phenomenon which could be related to the...
This paper presents the differential diagnosis of a calcified mass found in the pelvic cavity of an adult male dating to the 10th century AD.Skeletal remains of an adult male exhumed from the cemetery associated with the early...
Zirconia-based materials veneered with glassy porcelain have become the material of choice for both dentists and their patients. This restoration material is now extensively used in clinical practice for the following reasons:...
Dietary reconstruction in vertebrates often relies on dental wear-based proxies. Although these proxies are widely applied, the contributions of physical and mechanical processes leading to meso- and microwear are still unclear....
Attachment of sugars to nitrogen and oxygen in peptides is ubiquitous in biology, but glycosylation of sulfur atoms has only been recently described. Here, we characterize two S-glycosyltransferases SunS and ThuS that...
Desmoid-type fibromatosis (DF) is a rare tumor that develops in the limbs, abdominal wall, and abdominal cavity. It is accounting for less than 3% of soft-tissue sarcomas and less than 0.03% of all neoplasms.A 57-year-old man...
Dolphin teeth contain enamel, dentin, and cementum. In dentin, growth layer groups (GLGs), deposited at incremental rates (e.g., annually), are used for aging. Major, minor, and trace elements are incorporated within teeth;...
Pain experienced at teeth during orthodontic treatment varies largely over time, with the reasons for its inter-individual variability being largely unknown: age, sex, clinical activations, psychosocial factors, and genetical...
