CONCLUSION: Compared to traditional freehand flap surgery, flapless extraction of palatally impacted teeth guided by digital templates significantly reduces the localization time of impacted teeth and demonstrates notable advantages in some postoperative complications. Future studies with larger sample sizes are needed to substantiate the feasibility of this technique. →
BACKGROUND: The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to establish the effectiveness of time-restricted eating (TRE) compared with the Mediterranean diet for people with bipolar disorder (BD) who have symptoms of sleep disorders or circadian rhythm sleep-wake disruption. This work builds on the growing evidence that TRE has benefits for improving circadian… →
CONCLUSIONS: By establishing a novel quantitative method for microbiome analysis, this study sheds light on the mechanisms of LCM mouthrinse efficacy on oral microbial ecology, demonstrating that repeated usage non-selectively resets a gingivitis-like oral microbiome toward that of a healthy oral cavity. →
Incorporating demonstrating examples, known as in-context learning (ICL), significantly enhances large language models (LLMs) and large multimodal models (LMMs) without requiring parameter updates. Recent studies confirm the efficacy of few-shot multimodal ICL, particularly in improving LMM performance on out-of-domain tasks. With longer context windows in advanced models like GPT-4o and Gemini 1.5 Pro, researchers can… →
