- * The research involved 176 participants and used various questionnaires to evaluate sexual health, general health, and the severity of LS, revealing that LS leads to more significant sexual health issues than pemphigus or controls.
- * LS patients, particularly women, experienced greater difficulties with sexual function and increased psychological distress, highlighting the importance of effective management for those affected.
Objective: To evaluate the potential mid-term benefit of the use of a bone substitute material in the reconstructive surgical treatment of peri-implantitis.
Methods: A total of 120 subjects (127 implants) affected by peri-implantitis were followed over 3 years in a multicenter randomized clinical trial. Participants had been randomized to either control (access flap surgery) or test group (access flap surgery and bone substitute material).
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with a fivefold increased risk of cerebrovascular events, contributing to 15-18 % of all strokes. Stroke prevention in clinical practice is typically guided by the CHADS-VASc score, which depends on general clinical risk factors but falls short in predicting risk at an individual patient level. In this study, we introduce a digital twin model of the left atrium (LA) combined with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to enhance personalized stroke risk assessment.

A second aim was to analyse the extent and content of performed periodontal treatment in patients with varying degrees of periodontitis and if treatment was provided on equal terms. An additional aim was to identify if possible differences in treatments were related to type of dental insurance system.

- Pemphigus is an autoimmune disorder that negatively affects patients' quality of life, particularly their sleep quality, which has been under-researched.
- A study with 156 participants found that those with pemphigus reported higher psychological distress and significantly poorer sleep quality compared to a control group, with specific sleep issues correlated to the severity of their condition.
- The research highlights the importance of considering sleep quality in the overall management of pemphigus, especially since patients with skin manifestations experienced worse sleep than those with oral symptoms.
