“…The first case was a 28-year-old female with an atrophic right posterior maxilla who was treated with sinus floor augmentation and simultaneous implant placement using PRF as the sole graft material in our hospital. Twenty-four months after surgery, the implant was unfortunately removed because of occlusal overloading by parafunctional habits. …”

Optimal Scheme for Process Quality and Cost Control by Integrating a Continuous Sampling Plan and the Process Yield Index by Chunzhi Li, Shurong Tong, Keqin Wang

“…The four parameters (clearance number, inspecting fraction, sample size, and critical value) are designed in the proposed scheme under simultaneously considering the quality and cost constraints. The sole feasible inspection scheme in CSP-1 under the two constraints is found and used for controlling the process quality. …”

MVSGS: Gaussian splatting radiation field enhancement using multi-view stereo by Teng Fei, Ligong Bi, Jieming Gao, Shuixuan Chen, Guowei Zhang

“…However, achieving high-fidelity reconstruction of complex scenes and capturing low-frequency features remain long-standing challenges in the field of visual 3D reconstruction. Relying solely on sparse point inputs and simple optimization criteria often leads to non-robust reconstructions of the radiance field, with reconstruction quality heavily dependent on the proper initialization of inputs. …”

Incompletely closed HIV-1CH040 envelope glycoproteins resist broadly neutralizing antibodies while mediating efficient HIV-1 entry by Durgadevi Parthasarathy, Stephanie Pickthorn, Shamim Ahmed, Dmitry Mazurov, Jeffy Jeffy, Rajni Kant Shukla, Amit Sharma, Alon Herschhorn

“…Abstract HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins (Envs) mediate viral entry and are sole target of neutralizing antibodies. Thus, HIV-1 Envs must maintain a delicate balance between evading neutralizing antibodies while still preserving viral compatibility to mediate entry into target cells. …”

Large-scale multiobjective competitive swarm optimizer algorithm based on regional multidirectional search by Xuenan Zhang, Debao Chen, Fangzhen Ge, Feng Zou, Lin Cui

“…Abstract Competitive swarm optimizer (CSO) based on multidirectional search plays a crucial role in addressing large-scale multiobjective optimization problems (LSMOPs). However, relying solely on uniform or cluster partitioning of the objective space for sampling, along with two search directions constructed with upper and lower boundaries of global variables, sometimes lacks consideration of regional information. …”

An atlas of metabolites driving chemotaxis in prokaryotes by Maéva Brunet, Shady A. Amin, Iurii Bodachivskyi, Unnikrishnan Kuzhiumparambil, Justin R. Seymour, Jean-Baptiste Raina

“…Our analysis reveals that (i) not all chemical classes trigger chemotaxis equally, in particular, amino acids and benzenoids are much stronger attractants than carbohydrates; (ii) over one-quarter of attractants tested are not used for growth but solely act as chemotactic signals; (iii) the prokaryote’s origin matters, as terrestrial strains respond to 50% more chemicals than those originating from human or marine biomes; (iv) repellents affect cell behaviour at concentrations 10-fold higher than attractants; (v) the effect of large molecules and the behaviour of bacteria other than Proteobacteria have been largely overlooked. …”

Diversity and Antimicrobial Activities of Actinobacteria Isolated from Mining Soils in Midelt Region, Morocco by Soumia Ait Assou, Jaouad Anissi, Khalid Sendide, Mohammed El Hassouni

“…Out of 145 isolates, 51 showed antimicrobial activities against at least one test microorganism. 31 isolates inhibited only bacteria, 7 showed activity against bacteria and Candida albicans, and 13 displayed activity against C. albicans solely. Our findings suggest that Actinobacteria isolated from natural heavy metal ecosystems may be a valuable source of novel secondary metabolites and therefore of new biotechnologically promising antimicrobial compounds.…”
