RESUMO

Objective: This study presents an innovative articular fossa prosthesis generated by the envelope surface of condyle movement, and compares its mandible movements, muscle activities, and joint reaction forces with two temporomandibular joint (TMJ) prostheses using multibody musculoskeletal simulation. Methods: A healthy 23-year-old female was recruited for this study. Cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) was performed to reconstruct the mandibular bone geometry. A customized TMJ fossa prosthesis was designed based on the subject-specific envelope surface of condyle movement (ESCM). Mandibular kinematics and jaw-closing muscle electromyography (EMG) were simultaneously recorded during maximum jaw opening-closing movements. To validate our prosthesis design, a mandibular musculoskeletal model was established using flexible multibody dynamics and the obtained kinematics and EMG data. The Biomet fossa prosthesis and the ellipsoidal fossa prosthesis designed by imitating the lower limb prostheses were used for comparison. Simulations were performed to analyze the effects of different fossa prostheses on jaw opening-closing motions, mandibular muscle activation, and contact forces. Results: The maximum opening displacement for the envelope-based fossa prosthesis was greater than those for Biomet and ellipsoidal prostheses (36 mm, 35 mm, and 33 mm, respectively). The mandibular musculoskeletal model with ellipsoidal prosthesis led to dislocation near maximal jaw opening. Compared to Biomet, the envelope-based fossa reduced the digastric and lateral pterygoid activation at maximal jaw opening. It also reduced the maximal resistance to condylar sliding on the intact side by 63.2 N. Conclusion: A customized TMJ fossa prosthesis was successfully developed using the ESCM concept. Our study of musculoskeletal multibody modeling has highlighted its advantages and potential. The artificial fossa design successfully achieved a wider condylar range of motion. It also reduced the activation of jaw opening muscles on the affected side and resistance on the intact side. This study showed that an ESCM-based approach may be useful for optimizing TMJ fossa prostheses design.

RESUMO

The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between somatosensory functional changes and inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) exposure after impacted mandibular third molars (M3M) removal. We recruited 35 patients who underwent impacted M3M extraction near the IAN. The M3Ms were extracted by combined endoscopy, piezosurgery, and contra-angle high-speed turbine handpiece. All IAN canal perforations and exposed regions were recorded and measured by endoscopy after extraction and on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images before extraction. The patients were followed up 1, 7, and 35 days after surgery. A standardized quantitative sensory testing (QST) battery was performed on the lower lip skin. All of 35 cases had exposed IAN on CBCT images, 5 of which had no exposed IAN under endoscopy. For the other 30 cases, the endoscopy-measured IAN length and width were shorter than the CBCT measurements (P < 0.001). The warm and mechanical detection thresholds (MDT) on the operation side were significantly higher than the contralateral side after surgery (P < 0.05). Thermal sensory limen, MDT, and cold pain threshold were strongly correlated with the exposed IAN length and MDT also with the exposed IAN width one day after surgery. In conclusion, it was found that not all exposed IAN in CBCT images were real exposure after surgery. The intraoperative exposed IAN endoscopic measurements were smaller than by CBCT and strongly correlated with some QST parameters.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the differences between temporomandibular articular fossa bone surface and the envelope surface of the mandibular condyle movement. METHODS: Thirty-four healthy adults underwent skull base and mandible scans using CBCT and performed mandibular border movement using the mandibular movement recording system. Landmarks of the fossa and tubercle were indicated and distance and angle parameters were measured on the 3D models reconstructed from the CBCT. The condyle movement envelope surfaces were formed according to models reconstructed from CBCT and the mandibular movement trajectory using computer simulation. The highest and lowest points of the envelope surface were indicated to create parameters. The data were analysed using a paired t test in SPSS (version 24.0, IBM, Armonk, NY, USA). RESULTS: The mandibular fossa bone surface was statistically different to the envelope surface for the height of the first peak of the envelope surface (3.280 ± 1.319 mm) and depth of the mandibular fossa (6.338 ± 2.389 mm) (the ratio was 51.75%), the height of the second peak of the envelope surface (1.463 ± 0.745 mm) and the height of the tubercle (2.000 ± 0.968 mm) (the ratio was 73.15%), and the downwards angle of the envelope surface (25.933 ± 7.539 degrees) and the posterior slope angle of the articular tubercle (35.059 ± 5.224 degrees) (the ratio was 73.97%). CONCLUSION: The downwards angle of the envelope surface was statistically significantly smaller than the posterior slope angle of the articular tubercle, suggesting that the condyle movement is flatter than the mandibular fossa bone surface.

RESUMO

Massive plant hyperspectral images (HSIs) result in huge storage space and put a heavy burden for the traditional data acquisition and compression technology. For plant leaf HSIs, useful plant information is located in multiple arbitrary-shape regions of interest (MAROIs), while the background usually does not contain useful information, which wastes a lot of storage resources. In this paper, a novel hyperspectral compressive sensing framework for plant leaves with MAROIs (HCSMAROI) is proposed to alleviate these problems. HCSMAROI only compresses and reconstructs MAROIs by discarding the background to achieve good reconstructed performance. But for different plant leaf HSIs, HCSMAROI has the potential to be applied in other HSIs. Firstly, spatial spectral decorrelation criterion (SSDC) is used to obtain the optimal band of plant leaf HSIs; Secondly, different leaf regions and background are distinguished by the mask image of the optimal band; Finally, in order to improve the compression efficiency, after discarding the background region the compressed sensing technology based on blocking and expansion is used to compress and reconstruct the MAROIs of plant leaves one by one. Experimental results of soybean leaves and tea leaves show that HCSMAROI can achieve 3.08 and 5.05 dB higher PSNR than those of blocking compressive sensing (BCS) at the sampling rate of 5%, respectively. The reconstructed spectra of HCSMAROI are especially closer to the original ones than that of BCS. Therefore, HCSMAROI can achieve significantly higher reconstructed performance than that of BCS. Moreover, HCSMAROI can provide a flexible way to compress and reconstruct different MAROIs with different sampling rates, while achieving good reconstruction performance in the spatial and spectral domains.

RESUMO

Quercus franchetii Skan, a crucial indicator plant of dry-hot valley with endemic to southwestern China. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of Q. franchetii was assembled and characterized. The circular genome was 160,785 bp in length, containing a large single copy (LSC) region of 90,169 bp, a small single copy (SSC) region of 18,828 bp, and a pair of inverted repeat regions of 25,894 bp. Total 131 genes were annotated, comprising 86 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that Q. franchetii was closely related to Q. glauca and Q. chungii.
