A conflict between bone formation (the process of creating new bone tissue) and bone resorption (the degradation and removal of old bone tissue) causes the disorder.

Early detection of breast cancer is important; for saving patients' lives. Ultrasound and mammography are the most common noninvasive methods for detecting breast cancer. Computer techniques are used to help physicians diagnose cancer. In most of the previous studies, the classification parameter rates were not high enough to achieve the correct diagnosis. In this study, new approaches were applied to detect breast cancer images from three databases. The programming software used to extract features from the images was MATLAB R2022a. Novel approaches were obtained using new fractional transforms. These fractional transforms were deduced from the fraction Fourier transform and novel discrete transforms. The novel discrete transforms were derived from discrete sine and cosine transforms. The steps of the approaches were described below. First, fractional transforms were applied to the breast images. Then, the empirical Fourier decomposition (EFD) was obtained. The mean, variance, kurtosis, and skewness were subsequently calculated. Finally, RNN-BILSTM (recurrent neural network-bidirectional-long short-term memory) was used as a classification phase. The proposed approaches were compared to obtain the highest accuracy rate during the classification phase based on different fractional transforms. The highest accuracy rate was obtained when the fractional discrete sinc transform of approach 4 was applied. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was 1. The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, G-mean, and F-measure rates were 100%. If traditional machine learning methods, such as support vector machines (SVMs) and artificial neural networks (ANNs), were used, the classification parameter rates would be low. Therefore, the fourth approach used RNN-BILSTM to extract the features of breast images perfectly.

Dental implants consist of a crown, an abutment, and an artificial tooth root, and are made of various materials. Proper care is essential for the long-term use of implants, and negligence in care can lead to inflammation around the implant. The most representative inflammation that occurs around implants is peri-implantitis, and various laser treatments are being studied recently to eliminate it.ObjectiveIn this study, the effect of implant materials on temperature rise within inflamed tissue was analyzed both theoretically and numerically in removal of peri-implantitis using photothermal therapy.MethodsThe temperature distribution in tissue for various artificial root materials, laser irradiation angles, and intensities was calculated, and degree of tissue death was determined using the Arrhenius damage integral. Furthermore, percentage of tissue death was analyzed using the Arrhenius thermal damage ratio and the normal tissue Arrhenius thermal damage ratio to identify trends in the results based on treatment conditions.ResultsConsequently, with regard to materials used for artificial tooth roots, the prevailing trend in treatment indicates that zirconia is the most effective material, followed by Ti-6Al-4V, titanium, and tantalum. The efficacy of laser irradiation increases as the angle approaches vertical.ConclusionThe findings indicate that increasing laser power and reducing the irradiation angle are beneficial when focusing solely on inflammation.</p>","PeriodicalId":9109,"journal":{"name":"Bio-medical materials and engineering","volume":" ","pages":"324-332"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144315884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
