Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Stimuli-responsive hydrogels are smart and functional materials that respond to various environmental stimuli, including temperature, light, magnetic field, pH, redox, enzymes and glucose. This responsiveness allows for the controlled release of therapeutic agents encapsulated within the hydrogels, enhancing treatment precision, improving therapeutic outcomes and minimizing side effects. Such hydrogels show great potential in root canal disinfection, management of dental pulp inflammation and pulp regeneration, making them promising candidates for more personalized and effective endodontic treatments. This article provides an overview of the latest advancements in the design and application of stimuli-responsive hydrogels in endodontics, emphasizing their potential to revolutionize endodontic treatments. It also addresses current challenges and explores future directions in the field, aiming to inspire and motivate researchers to further engage in or intensify their efforts within this promising area of research.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
