Objectives: This in-vitro study evaluates the accuracy of modular surgical templates used to fully guide implants in combination with bone reduction, performed by expert and students, for complete arch restorations.
Methods: All the procedures were performed by dental students of the final year and an expert clinician, on twelve edentulous mandible models. A virtual implant planning, simulating a complete arch restoration on six implants were performed.
The population pharmacokinetics of amiodarone and its active metabolite, N-desethylamiodarone (DEA) were investigated in paediatric patients with arrhythmias, mainly supraventricular tachycardias. A total of 55 patients from the Department of Pediatric Intensive Care and Pediatric Cardiology at Necker-Enfants malades Hospital (Paris, France) provided 72 concentrations for both amiodarone and DEA following repeated oral or intravenous administration. Blood samples drawn for biological analyses were used for drug concentrations.

- Transcatheter closure of the patent arterial duct (TCPDA) is a new procedure for preterm infants, but the reasons and outcomes of failed attempts at this procedure are not well understood.* -
- A study reviewed data from premature infants who had discontinued TCPDA procedures, revealing that out of 130 patients, 14 experienced procedure failures due to factors like duct size and vessel obstruction.* -
- The results showed that in cases where TCPDA failed, 7 out of 12 patients achieved spontaneous closure of the patent arterial duct within a few days, suggesting that surgical intervention may not be immediately necessary.*
