Article Abstract
Background/purpose: Subsurface scattering from translucent material would affect the digital scans. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of translucency of ceramic restorative materials and scanning aid conditions on the accuracy of intraoral scans.
Materials And Methods: Identical anatomic contour crowns with ten ceramic restorative materials were fabricated: five zirconia, three lithium disilicate glass-ceramic, and two leucite reinforced glass-ceramic. The models with ceramic crowns were digitized with an intraoral scanner (IOS) and analyzed for accuracy (n = 10) with and without a scanning aid. Scan time efficiency was recorded. Square-shaped specimens with 1.0-mm thickness were fabricated with the same materials, and translucency parameter (TP) values were measured. One-way ANOVA, Welch ANOVA, and a post-hoc pairwise comparison or independent -test were used for trueness and time analysis, and the F-test was used to examine the precision (α = 0.05). Pearson correlation test was conducted.
Results: Significant differences were revealed for trueness with no scanning aid condition and for TP values ( < 0.05). In contrast, no statistically significant differences were observed for trueness with a scanning aid. A strong correlation (r = 0.854, < 0.01) between TP value and trueness with no scanning aid was revealed. By applying a scanning aid, trueness was improved and scan time efficiency significantly increased ( < 0.05).
Conclusion: The translucency of ceramic restorative materials negatively affects the accuracy of IOS scan without a scanning aid; however, the scan accuracy and time efficiency of IOS scanning for ceramic restorations can be improved by applying scanning aid, and prostheses with high quality without unnecessary labor can be produced.

The green synthesis method is a significant approach that offers several advantages, including simplicity, rapidity, and cost-effectiveness in the synthesis of nanoparticles. Iron nanoparticles were synthesized in this work using waste banana peel extract as a capping and reducing agent. The produced nanoparticles were then subjected to a number of characterization procedures, such as Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry (XRD), zeta potential analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) absorption spectroscopy, field scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).

Aim: To determine the utility and efficacy of a patient-reported history questionnaire to identify the presence of red flag symptoms indicative of lung cancer.
Materials And Methods: The study site introduced a paper-based screening questionnaire in 2019 to establish the presence of patient-reported red flag symptoms. This retrospective four-week (February 2020) single-centre observational study determined the prevalence of symptoms, compared referrer-reported to patient-reported clinical history, explored the relationship to the chest X-ray (CXR) outcome, and identified those diagnosed with lung cancer in the following two years.

Introduction: Left Ventricular Dysfunction (LVD) is a frequent complication in Diabetes mellitus (DM) patients, often worsened by cardiovascular disease. This study explores the role of dipyridamole (DP)-induced heart rate variability and G-SPECT imaging in evaluating LVD in DM patients.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between heart rate ratio (HRR) during DP stress and LVD parameters derived from gated SPECT (G-SPECT) in DM patients, aiming to identify if HRR can serve as a marker for early LVD assessment.

Background: Super-resolution (SR) reconstruction-based positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has been widely applied in the field of computer vision. However, their definitive clinical benefits have yet to be validated. Radiomics-based modeling provides an effective approach to evaluate the clinical utility of SRPET imaging.
