Aim: This study aims to evaluate the potential of AI-based chatbots in assisting with clinical decision-making in the management of medically complex patients in oral surgery.
Materials And Methods: A team of oral and maxillofacial surgeons developed a pool of open-ended questions de novo. The validity of the questions was assessed using Lawshe's Content Validity Index.
Purpose: The study aimed to compare the clinical and radiologic results of pinning and modified Dunn procedure methods in stable-moderate slipped capital femoral epiphyses surgery.
Methods: Slipped capital femoral epiphyses cases between January 2000 and December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Stable and moderate cases treated with pinning or modified Dunn procedure and those with a follow-up period longer than 1 year were included.
Article Synopsis
- Lateral condyle fractures are common in children (ages 6-10) and can be treated using open or closed reduction methods, but guidelines on treatment choices are unclear.
- This study reviewed 111 patients who had surgery for Song type 4 and 5 fractures from 2011-2016, comparing outcomes between those treated with closed reduction and percutaneous pinning (CRPP) and open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF).
- Results showed no significant differences in patient demographics or fracture displacement, but radiological outcomes indicated a higher rate of lateral spur formation in the ORIF group (47.5%) compared to the CRPP group (23%).
For noninteracting particles confined in a constant volume, the temperature derivative of the local energy assumes negative values in thermodynamic equilibrium at low temperatures. This peculiar behavior may entail the misleading unphysical conclusion that the local heat capacity is negative. However, we show that temperature-dependent density variations of confined particles induce an energy selective particle transport within the domain, here called temperature-induced quantum migration.

However, none of them reported a direct association between VP and spinal instability following fusion for degenerative lumbar spine disorders (DSDs), namely junctional disorders. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate whether the VP was predictive for junctional disorders in patients who underwent short-segment lumbar decompression and fusion for DSDs at a tertiary spine center.
