The Road to the Truth
I mean looking for the way to the truth in relation to hearing. The truth can be sought and it should be done. There is a lot of ambiguity in Bekesy's theory [1]. There is new knowledge that Bekesy did not have, there are new research opportunities. Looking through foreign papers, one can believe that faith in Bekesy's theory still reigns. Complex examinations of the basilar membrane are performed. The reason for the lack of a good stapedotomy result is investigated by increasing the piston…

An Investigation of the Association Between Periodontal Disease and Cutaneous Melanoma: A Case-Control Study in Greek Adults
Background/Aim: Previous investigations have showed biological linkages between Periodontal Disease and various types of cancer, such as oral/head and neck cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, kidney cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, hematological malignancies, and cutaneous melanoma. This research investigation aimed to assess the possible association between Periodontal Disease indices and the risk of Cutaneous Melanoma.

Conceptual Design Approach of a Hybrid Solar Dryer for Banana Under South Pacific Conditions
The idea of developing a solar hybrid banana dryer designed explicitly for South Pacific will be a significant step forward in addressing both environmental sustainability and economic efficiency in the region. This paper encompasses the design steps and calculations of a sophisticated drying system tailored to meet local conditions, assuming one hybrid dryer as an example. It features an array of components such as solar panels, batteries, solar collectors, an air filter, a heat exchanger,…

Non-Classical Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia due to Partial 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency Revealed by Severe Hirsutism in Adulthood
Non-Classical Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (NCCAH) due to partial 21-hydroxylase deficiency is a frequent and often underdiagnosed cause of hyperandrogenism in women. We report the case of a 39-year-old woman presenting with severe hirsutism. Hormonal evaluation revealed elevated 17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17OHP), confirmed after ACTH stimulation, consistent with NCCAH. Imaging findings were normal. This case highlights the importance of systematic screening for this condition in the…

Non-Functioning Ectopic Parathyroid Adenoma Within a Lymph Node Along the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Chain: A Case Report and Literature Review
Ectopic parathyroid adenomas are rare and usually present with biochemical hyperparathyroidism. They most frequently occur in the mediastinum or thymic region. Localization within a lymph node along the recurrent laryngeal nerve chain is extremely rare. We report a case of a 70-year-old woman in whom a non-functioning ectopic parathyroid adenoma was incidentally discovered within a lymph node of the right recurrent laryngeal nerve chain during surgery for a suspicious thyroid nodule.…

Can Google Scholar Serve as a Sufficient Source for Systematic Reviews? Reconsidering the Need for Multiple Database Searches
Systematic reviews derive their credibility from the comprehensive identification of relevant evidence. In medical science research, systematic reviews have traditionally been pursued through searches of multiple curated bibliographic databases, a practice reinforced by methodological convention and consensus reporting frameworks. However, this approach developed in an earlier era of scientific communication, when dissemination was slower, more journal-centered, and more tightly bounded by…

Comparative Performance Analysis of Alternative Noble Gas Propellants for Hall Thrusters Using Machine Learning Prediction
The growing demand for high-efficiency electric propulsion systems in modern satellite missions has intensified interest in alternative propellants for Hall-effect thrusters (HETs). Although xenon remains the standard propellant due to its favorable atomic mass and low ionization energy, its high cost and limited global supply motivate the exploration of viable substitutes such as krypton and argon. This study presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of noble gas propellants for Hall…

Advanced Flight Control Systems: Integration of Pixhawk Pilot Support Package and 6-DOF Dynamic Modeling
This report presents a comprehensive study on the implementation and simulation of advanced flight control systems for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The work is divided into two primary domains: the practical application of the Pixhawk Pilot Support Package (PSP) within the MATLAB/Simulink environment and the theoretical construction of a six-degree-of-freedom (6 DOF) dynamic model for fixed-wing aircraft. By leveraging the PSP, we demonstrate the integration of hardware-in-theloop (HIL)…

Effectiveness of Smartphone Vibrotactile Biofeedback on Postural Correction and Neck Pain Reduction in Desk Workers with Chronic Neck Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Background and Purpose: Chronic neck pain (CNP) is among the most prevalent occupational health complaints in desk-based workers globally, with reported lifetime prevalence exceeding 70% in office populations. Despite substantial evidence supporting exercise-based physiotherapy for CNP, patient adherence to unsupervised postural correction programs remains persistently poor. Vibrotactile biofeedback — the delivery of real-time haptic alerts via skin vibration when a…
