The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has been suggested as a means to tackle these challenges. This is because, tissue regeneration research could be advanced through the use of diagnostic systems that incorporate mining methods such as neural networks (NN), fuzzy, predictive modeling, genetic algorithms, machine learning (ML), cluster analysis, and decision trees. This article seeks to offer foundational insights into a subset of AI referred to as artificial neural networks (ANNs) and assess their potential applications as essential decision-making support tools in the field of dentistry, with a particular focus on tissue engineering research. Although ANNs may initially appear complex and resource intensive, they have proven to be effective in laboratory and therapeutic settings. This expert system can be trained using clinical data alone, enabling their deployment in situations where rule-based decision-making is impractical. As ANNs progress further, it is likely to play a significant role in revolutionizing dental tissue regeneration research, providing promising results in streamlining dental procedures and improving patient outcomes in the clinical setting.</p>","PeriodicalId":23134,"journal":{"name":"Tissue Engineering.

Its effectiveness in restoring the ocular surface has been widely acknowledged in clinical practice. Nevertheless, there is ongoing debate regarding the comparative effectiveness of using fresh amniotic membranes versus preserved ones. The objective of this meta-analysis was to ascertain whether there is a disparity in the effectiveness of fresh versus preserved amniotic membrane in the restoration of the ocular surface in clinical practice. The study utilized the following keywords: \"fresh amniotic membrane,\" \"preserved amniotic membrane,\" \"amniotic membrane transplantation,\" and \"ocular surface reconstruction.\" The study conducted a comprehensive search for relevant studies published until April 18, 2024. Seven different databases, namely PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane, China Knowledge, China Science and Technology Journal VIP database, and Wanfang database, were utilized. The search was performed using the keywords \"fresh amniotic membrane,\" \"preserved amniotic membrane,\" \"amniotic membrane transplantation,\" and \"ocular surface reconstruction.\" The process of literature review and data extraction was carried out separately by two researchers, and all statistical analyses were conducted using Review Manager 5.4.1. The final analysis comprised nine cohort studies, encompassing a total of 408 participants. The statistics included six outcome indicators: visual acuity (relative risk [RR] = 1.07, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.93-1.24, <i>I</i>² = 0); amniotic membrane viability (RR = 1.00, 95% CI = 0.93-1.08, <i>I</i>² = 0); ocular congestion resolution (RR = 1.11, 95% CI = 0.97-1.26, <i>I</i>² = 0); fluorescent staining of amniotic membranes on the second day after the operation (RR = 1.31, 95% CI = 0.80-2.14, <i>I</i>² = 11); postoperative recurrence rate (RR = 1.01, 95% CI = 0.50-2.03, <i>I</i>² = 0); and premature lysis of amniotic membrane implants (RR = 0.96, 95% CI = 0.49-1.88, <i>I</i>² = 0).

Among these, growth factors play a critical role in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and extracellular matrix remodeling.

It results in 4.5 million physician visits in the United States every year and is the most common etiology of shoulder conditions evaluated by orthopedic surgeons. Over 460,000 RCT repair surgeries are performed in the United States annually. Rotator cuff (RC) retear and failure to heal remain significant postoperative complications. Literature suggests that the retear rates can range from 29.5% to as high as 94%. Weakened and irregular enthesis regeneration is a crucial factor in postsurgical failure. Although commercially available RC repair grafts have been introduced to augment RC enthesis repair, they have been associated with mixed clinical outcomes. These grafts lack appropriate biological cues such as stem cells and signaling molecules at the bone-tendon interface. In addition, they do little to prevent fibrovascular scar tissue formation, which causes the RC to be susceptible to retear. Advances in tissue engineering have demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and growth factors (GFs) enhance RC enthesis regeneration in animal models. These models show that delivering MSCs and GFs to the site of RCT enhances native enthesis repair and leads to greater mechanical strength. In addition, these models demonstrate that MSCs and GFs may be delivered through a variety of methods including direct injection, saturation of repair materials, and loaded microspheres. Grafts that incorporate MSCs and GFs enhance anti-inflammation, osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and chondrogenesis in the RC repair process. It is crucial that the techniques that have shown success in animal models are incorporated into the clinical setting. A gap currently exists between the promising biological factors that have been investigated in animal models and the RC repair grafts that can be used in the clinical setting. Future RC repair grafts must allow for stable implantation and fixation, be compatible with current arthroscopic techniques, and have the capability to deliver MSCs and/or GFs.</p>","PeriodicalId":23134,"journal":{"name":"Tissue Engineering.
