- 1Application of Artificial Intelligence in Predicting Periodontal Risks in Orthodontic Patients: A Scoping Review
Introduction This scoping review aims to evaluate artificial intelligence (AI), particularly deep learning, for predicting periodontal risks in orthodontic patients and to identify methodological gaps limiting clinical translation.
- 2Variation in Recommendations for Management of Pediatric Fever and Neutropenia Across Databases and Languages: A Systematic Review of Clinical Practice Guidelines
We performed a systematic review and content analysis of CPG to assess the impact of databases searched and publication language on the quantity, quality, and content of recommendations identified for pediatric FN.
- 3Understanding Biodiversity in Acer Forests: From Species Diversity to Sustainable Conservation
This review evaluates biodiversity patterns, ecological functions, environmental pressures, and conservation approaches associated with Acer forests.

STATA 15.0 and Review Manager 5.4 software were used, and random-effects models were employed with pooled hazard ratios (HR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) to assess the prognostic value of SIRI.
- 7Identification of A DNA Damage Response-Related Prognostic Signature and Functional Validation of SMC3 in Glioma
The single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) algorithm was used to estimate immune infiltrates.
- 8Adverse Childhood Experiences and Allergic Diseases: A Scoping Review
Of 59 studies selected for inclusion in the review, 57 focused primarily on asthma/lung disease, 6 variably reported on poorly described allergy outcomes, and 2 reported on atopic dermatitis.
- 9Digital Health Interventions for Patient Engagement: A Systematic Umbrella Review
Digital tools are increasingly integrated into patient engagement (PE) in chronic disease management, yet findings remain fragmented across populations, modalities, and outcome definitions. The aim of this umbrella review was to systematically review evidence on the effectiveness of Digital Health Interventions (DHIs) to enhance PE and related health outcomes.
- 10Investigation of The ABO Gene As A Biomarker in Breast Invasive Carcinoma Using Cancer Profiling and Blood Type Distribution
This study comprehensively investigated the expression pattern, clinical significance, and potential molecular mechanisms of ABO in BRCA.

- 12Crosstalk Between Nrf2 and MiRNAs in Oxidative Stress, Cancer Progression, and Therapy Resistance
Natural Nrf2 modulators and miRNA-based therapeutics (mimics/inhibitors) represent promising strategies to restore redox balance, suppress tumor progression, and overcome multidrug resistance. This review highlights the bidirectional crosstalk between Nrf2 and miRNAs and discusses its therapeutic potential in cancer.
- 13Determinants, Reasons and Indicators of Dropout from Sport: A Systematic Review (1985–2026)
Sports offer substantial physical and psychosocial benefits, yet sports organizations face an alarming, age-related decline in adolescent retention rates. This systematic review explored the determinants, interpersonal/structural motives, and career indicators that explain the sport dropout process, synthesizing the core theoretical frameworks underpinning athletic persistence.
- 14Digital Twins for Health and Safety Management in Construction: A Systematic Review
This study aims to systematically review and synthesise evidence on DT-enabled H&S management during the construction stage.
- 15Environmental Sustainability and Climate Change Mitigation Measures in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: A Scoping Review of Global Evidence and Regulatory Frameworks
Despite growing concern regarding the environmental impacts of pharmaceutical manufacturing, environmental sustainability is not a primary objective of conventional good manufacturing practice (GMP) frameworks, and cleaner production principles remain unevenly integrated into pharmaceutical manufacturing regulation and practice. This scoping review, conducted following JBI methodology and reported in accordance with PRISMA-ScR, mapped peer-reviewed and gray literature published from 2000 through July 2025 on environmental sustainability and climate change mitigation in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
