Myofascial pain is one of the common symptoms in patients with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD). Occlusal splint (OS) and masticatory muscle trigger point (TP) local injections are primary treatment options. We aimed to investigate the effects of these treatments using clinical and elastography measures. Patients who were diagnosed with myofascial pain according to Diagnostic Criteria… →
Background: Tapinarof cream 1% once daily (QD) demonstrated significant efficacy in patients down to age 2 years with atopic dermatitis (AD) in the ADORING 1 and 2 phase 3 trials. We report local tolerability outcomes.Methods: Patients received Tapinarof or vehicle cream QD for 8 weeks. Tolerability was evaluated using patient/parent/caregiver and investigator 5-point Local Tolerability… →
Developing effective multi-modal AI systems for real-world applications requires handling diverse tasks such as fine-grained recognition, visual grounding, reasoning, and multi-step problem-solving. Existing open-source multi-modal language models are found to be wanting in these areas, especially for tasks that involve external tools such as OCR or mathematical calculations. The abovementioned limitations can largely be attributed… →
The rapid growth of digital platforms has brought image safety into sharp focus. Harmful imagery—ranging from explicit content to depictions of violence—poses significant challenges for content moderation. The proliferation of AI-generated content (AIGC) has exacerbated these challenges, as advanced image-generation models can easily create unsafe visuals. Current safety systems rely heavily on human-labeled datasets, which… →
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing how discoveries are made. AI is creating a new scientific paradigm with the acceleration of processes like data analysis, computation, and idea generation. Researchers want to create a system that eventually learns to bypass humans completely by completing the research cycle without human involvement. Such developments could raise productivity and… →
GANs are often criticized for being difficult to train, with their architectures relying heavily on empirical tricks. Despite their ability to generate high-quality images in a single forward pass, the original minimax objective is challenging to optimize, leading to instability and risks of mode collapse. While alternative objectives have been introduced, issues with fragile losses… →
The objective of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic effects of Chiglitazar combined with Rosa roxburghii Tratt (RRT) in inpatients diagnosed with psychiatric disorders and antipsychotic-induced metabolic syndrome (MetS).100 cases were included and divided into the Siglitazar group (n=50) and the Siglitazar + RRT group (n=50) Anthropometric measurements, lipid and glucose metabolism indicators, inflammatory… →
BACKGROUND: Compared to older adults with breast cancer (BC), adolescents and young adults (AYAs) develop more aggressive disease necessitating more intensive therapy with curative intent, which is disruptive to planned life trajectories. The burden of unmet needs among AYA BC survivors exists in two domains: (1) symptoms (e.g., sexual problems, anxiety, fatigue, stress, hot flashes)… →
CONCLUSION: School dental screening programs with referral to specific dental hospital had a highly significant impact in reducing decayed teeth and increasing the number of FT 27 in children. →
Autoregressive pre-training has proved to be revolutionary in machine learning, especially concerning sequential data processing. Predictive modeling of the following sequence elements has been highly effective in natural language processing and, increasingly, has been explored within computer vision domains. Video modeling is one area that has hardly been explored, giving opportunities for extending into action… →
