OBJECTIVE: To perform a systematic review in which the clinical research question for primary teeth with irreversible pulpal pathosis was "how pulpectomies with zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) paste performed compared to other materials in their clinical and radiographic outcomes after twelve months or more follow-up period.…

AIMS: To conduct a systematic review to determine the scope of published assessments of educational initiatives for South Asians with Type 2 diabetes living in Western countries and to consider the effectiveness of reported interventions. METHODS: A range of electronic databases was searched using Medical Subject Head…

BACKGROUND: In vitro cell culture is crucial for studying human diseases and development. Compared to traditional monolayer cultures, 3D culturing with organoids offers significant advantages by more accurately replicating natural tissues' structural and functional features. This advancement enhances disease modeling,…

Invited for the cover of this issue are the group of Iwona and Jean-François Nierengarten from the University of Strasbourg (LIMA, UMR 7042, CNRS) and collaborators from the University of Carthage and the IPHC (University of Strasbourg and CNRS, UMR 7178). The image illustrates the fast motions of a pillar[5]arene…

The unprecedented growth of high-throughput sequencing has led to an ever-widening annotation gap in protein databases. While computational prediction methods are available to make up the shortfall, a majority of public web servers are hindered by practical limitations and poor performance. Here, we introduce PANNZER2…

Three Problem List Terminologies (PLT) were tested using a web-based application simulating a clinical data entry environment to evaluate coverage and coding efficiency. The three PLTs were: the CORE Problem List Subset of SNOMED CT, a clinical subset extracted from the full SNOMED CT and the PLT currently used at the…

To obtain a full and unrestricted license to practice medicine in the United States, students and graduates of the MD-granting US medical schools and of medical schools located outside of the United States must take and pass the United States Medical Licensing Examination. United States Medical Licensing Examination be…

BACKGROUND: Neonatal pain has been underdiagnosed due to several false beliefs. AIM: To determine the status of neonatal pain in newborns who are admitted to intensive care units. METHODS: Different databases were searched. Literature reviews and research reports conducted in newborns that were written in English, Sp…

Solutions of the real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) equations provide an affordable route to understanding the electronic dynamics that underpins many spectroscopic techniques. From the solutions of the RT-TDDFT equations, it is possible to extract optical absorption and circular dichroism sp…

RATIONALE: Around 30% of the infertile women worldwide have associated Fallopian tubes pathology. Unfortunately, for a long time, this aspect of infertility has been neglected due to the possibility of bypassing this deadlock through IVF. OBJECTIVE: Up to date free full text literature was reviewed, meaning 4 major te…

A wealth of molecular interaction data is available in the literature, ranging from large-scale datasets to a single interaction confirmed by several different techniques. These data are all too often reported either as free text or in tables of variable format, and are often missing key pieces of information essential…

BACKGROUND: Periodontitis is a chronic multifactorial inflammatory disease, that leads to tooth loss and is associated with other systemic diseases. The role of dietary fibre in the prevention and management of periodontal diseases is not well understood. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to…

The data resources provided by the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) cover major areas of biological and biomedical research, giving free and open access to users ranging from expert to casual level. The EBI Search engine provides a unified metadata search engine across these resources. It provides a full-te…

Present worldwide healthcare researches prove that female patients are more sensitive to the population aging. Menopause or climacteria (climax) - is not as ageing itself, but a physiological unstoppable process. The main task for a physician is to improve life quality for female despite of ageing problems. Menopausal…

. Family health history (FHH) can be used to identify individuals at elevated risk for familial cancers. Risk criteria for common cancers rely on age of onset, which is documented inconsistently as structured and unstructured data in electronic health records (EHRs).. To investigate a natural language processing (NLP)…

UNLABELLED: The goals of hospitalist programs in the United States include improving the quality of care, patient safety, the efficient use of resources and reducing the variation in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. Hospitalist medicine aims to bring together the concepts of provision of evidence-based medicine a…

*: Background Consisting of dictated free-text documents such as discharge summaries, medical narratives are widely used in medical natural language processing. Relationships between anatomical entities and human body parts are crucial for building medical text mining applications. To achieve this, we establish a mappi…

BACKGROUND: Detecting Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) is an emerging research area, attracting great interest in the research community. Better anticipatory management of predisposing factors has considerable potential to improve outcomes. Automatic extraction of ADEs using Natural Language Processing (NLP) has a great pote…

Chronic pain (CP) is a debilitating condition that extends beyond persistent pain, influenced by physiological and psychological factors. However, clinical trials often evaluate outcomes solely on self-reported pain amplitude. To address this, we aimed to derive a single metric from multidimensional digital data to com…

INTRODUCTION: The Cook-Swartz implantable Doppler monitors venous or arterial blood flow from free flaps and can detect free-flap compromise. Previous studies have shown that the use of this Doppler can improve detection and salvage rates as it provides an earlier warning than the current method of clinical assessment.…
