Article Abstract
The construction of human organs on demand remains a tantalizing vision to solve the organ donor shortage. Yet, engineering tissues that recapitulate the cellular and architectural complexity of native organs is a grand challenge. The use of organ building blocks (OBBs) composed of multicellular spheroids, organoids, and assembloids offers an important pathway for creating organ-specific tissues with the desired cellular-to-tissue-level organization. Here, we review the differentiation, maturation, and 3D assembly of OBBs into functional human tissues and, ultimately, organs for therapeutic repair and replacement. We also highlight future challenges and areas of opportunity for this nascent field.

Morphological features of the great saphenous vein in patients with chronic venous disease of the lower extremities undergoing the most common endovenous treatment techniques.
Pol Merkur Lekarski

Kharkiv Clinical Hospital on Railway Transport No. 1 ≪Health Care Center≫ of Joint-Stock Company «Ukrainian Railways», Kharkiv, Ukraine.
Objective: Aim: The purpose was to identify the morphological features of the great saphenous vein in patients with chronic venous disease of the lower extremities undergoing treatment with endovenous high-frequency electric welding in automatic mode, endovenous laser ablation, and ultrasound-guided microfoam sclerotherapy.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The material for the comprehensive morphological study consisted of fragments of the great saphenous vein obtained from 32 patients with chronic venous disease of the lower extremities. The material was divided into three groups according to the endovenous treatment techniques applied.
Objective: .Aim: To investigate the pathomorphological changes in the terminal chorionic villi during COVID-19 in pregnant women.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: A total of 123 placentas were studied in cases of live term births (groups І) and antenatal asphyxia (groups ІІ).
Prevalence of temporomandibular disorders and associated factors: a population-based study in southern Brazil.

Universidade de Ribeirão Preto - Unaerp, Graduate Program in Dentistry, Ribeirão Preto, SP, Brazil.
The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and associated factors in an adult population in southern Brazil. The population-based sample (n = 4.65) included participants from Passo Fundo, a town in southern Brazil.

Universidade Positivo, School of Health Sciences, Graduate Program in Dentistry, Curitiba, PR, Brazil.
This study assessed the effect of saliva exposure on roughness (Ra) and Vickers hardness (VHN) of two direct restorative materials, enamel, and dentin adjacent to the restorations. Enamel and dentin cavities in molars (n = 10) were restored with a) bulk-fill resin composite (Tetric N-Flow Bulk Fill, BF) with the application of a universal adhesive (Tetric N-Bond Universal) and b) alkasite restorative material (Cention N, CN) with and without the application of a universal adhesive. After 24 h (baseline), surface roughness and hardness of the restorative material and dental tissues were assessed at 100 μm from the tooth/restoration interface.

Braz Oral Res
September 2025
Ankara University, Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Ankara, Turkey.
The aim of this in-vitro study was to verify which field of view (FOV) in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) yields greater accuracy in the detection of internal root resorption (IRR) volume, in comparison to the gold standard of micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and to a physical method. Twenty-five extractedsingle-rooted teeth were scanned by CBCT with two different FOV parameters (6x6-FOV and 10x10-FOV) and via micro-CT. The volume of dental hard tissue was measured on these images.
