Aim This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the Easy Age mobile application (app) for cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) staging. The app's results were compared with assessments by an experienced orthodontist, and inter-observer reliability was analysed among dental students using various mobile operating systems...

BACKGROUND Bee pollen is a bioactive substance valued for its nutritional and health-promoting properties. However, consistent quality control and classification are hampered by variability in its chemical and biological composition, which is largely dependent on botanical origin. Artificial intelligence offers an opportunity to overcome these...

BackgroundTraumatic brain injury (TBI) induces broad molecular changes in the human brain, altering gene expression in diverse neural and glial cells. While the transcriptional effects of TBI on protein-coding genes are well characterized, the roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), key regulators of gene expression and chromatin, remain...

Achieving high capacitance, fast charge-discharge capability, and cycle stability simultaneously in supercapacitor electrodes remains a critical challenge for next-generation energy storage. Here, we present a threedimensional (3D) reduced graphene hydrogel (RGH) architecture directly bonded to nickel foam (NF) via an optimized simple reduction...

This study compared conventional alkaline extraction and ultrasound-assisted deep eutectic solvent (DES-US) extraction for isolating functional proteins from hazelnut meal, an underutilized oilseed by-product. Alkaline extraction at pH 10 achieved the highest protein recovery (260 mg/g) and extraction efficiency (63 %), while DES-US systems...

Bioprinting enables the fabrication of living tissue constructs through the deposition of bioinks containing live cells within a three-dimensional architecture that mimics the native tissue microenvironment. A major challenge in bioprinting is the lack of an ideal bioink that simultaneously offers suitable biocompatibility, rheological...

High entropy oxides (HEOs) have emerged as significant nanomaterials due to their unique structural and functional properties. In this study, the suitability of the electrospinning method to produce HEO fibers with high surface area and diameters below 100 nm was investigated. In this study, the effects of solution composition, precursor...

This work investigates the initial mass and chemical evolution history of the Gaia-Enceladus dwarf galaxy. We combine spectroscopic data from APOGEE with astrometric data from Gaia Data Release 3 to identify Gaia-Enceladus candidate stars via a machine learning pipeline using t-SNE and HDBSCAN. By focusing on kinematic and chemical parameters,...

The Yildiz Dagi gabbroic intrusion and associated dykes intruded the southern part of the Pontides, along the Izmir-Ankara-Erzincan suture zone (central-northern-T & uuml;rkiye). The intrusion has an elongated shape and is exposed over 2 km2. It consists of melagabbro, leucogabbro, troctolitic enclaves, hornblende gabbro, and pegmatite....
