Optimization of titanium dental mesh surfaces for biological sealing and prevention of bacterial colonization
(MDPI, 2022)
Titanium dental meshes have a wide application in order to ensure the retention of calcium phosphate-based biomaterials to regenerate bone tissue. These meshes are temporary and must grow a soft tissue ...
Blood test dynamics in hospitalized COVID-19 patients: Potential utility of D-dimer for pulmonary embolism diagnosis
(Public Library of Science, 2020-12-28)
Background: A higher incidence of thrombotic events, mainly pulmonary embolism (PE), has been reported in hospitalized patients with COVID-19. The main objective was to assess clinical and laboratory ...
Evo-devo strategies for generative architecture: colour-based patterns in polygon meshes
(MDPI, 2020)
Parametric design in architecture is often pigeonholed by its own definition and computational complexity. This article explores the generative capacity to integrate patterns and flows analogous to ...
Effects of using the surgical mask and FFP2 during the 6-min walking test. A randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2021)
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of masks has been recommended as a containment measure. The mask is a hindrance to normal breathing that causes discomfort. This could put more work on the respiratory ...
Beneficial effect of corticosteroids in preventing mortality in patients receiving tocilizumab to treat severe COVID-19 illness
(International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020-12)
Objectives: To assess the characteristics and risk factors for mortality in patients with severe coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) treated with tocilizumab (TCZ), alone or in combination with ...
Cognitive enhancement strategies for older adults: an evaluation of different training modalities to improve executive function- a systematic review and meta-analysis
(MDPI, 2024)
(1) Background: The aging population is expected to triple by 2050. Executive functions decline with age, impacting daily tasks, and this is associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Aerobic and ...
Computer-guided surgery can avoid prophylactic endodontic treatment in autologous tooth transplantation: a 5-year follow-up case report
(MDPI, 2024)
Autotransplantation is a successful technique to replace compromised teeth. This study presents a computer-guided surgical approach for preparing the receiving socket for a mature mandibular third molar ...
Junctional epithelium and hemidesmosomes: tape and rivets for solving the “percutaneous device dilemma” in dental and other permanent implants
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
The percutaneous device dilemma describes etiological factors, centered around the disrupted epithelial tissue surrounding non-remodelable devices, that contribute to rampant percutaneous device infection. ...
Efficacy of aerobic exercise on widespread pain sensitization in patients with temporomandibular disorders: a preliminary randomized controlled study
(MDPI, 2024)
Myogenic temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are commonly associated with pain sensitization (PS), manifesting decreased local and distal pressure pain thresholds (PPTs). Aerobic exercise (AE) has shown ...
Chronic full-band recordings with graphene microtransistors as neural interfaces for discrimination of brain states
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2024)
Brain states such as sleep, anesthesia, wakefulness, or coma are characterized by specific patterns of cortical activity dynamics, from local circuits to full-brain emergent properties. We previously ...
