Patient Centered, Clinical, Radiographic, and Biochemical comparative evaluation of Transgingival and Conventional Flapped Implant surgical technique: A randomized controlled trial.

A multifaceted study compared transgingival (flapless) implant placement with conventional flapped placement, which employed clinical, radiographic, biochemical, and patient-centered parameters. The study was approved by the institutional ethics committee and was conducted according to the ethical standards in the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki and its amendments. Seventy-five implants were placed, 37 by flapless method (group 1) and 38 by flapped method (group 2).

Development of a model to predict electroencephalographic seizures in neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy treated with therapeutic hypothermia.

Objective: Electroencephalographic seizures (ES) are common in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), but identification with continuous electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring (CEEG) is resource-intensive. We aimed to develop an ES prediction model.

Methods: Using a prospective observational study of 260 neonates with HIE undergoing CEEG, we identified clinical and EEG risk factors for ES, evaluated model performance with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), and calculated test characteristics emphasizing high sensitivity.

Narrative Review: Cardiotoxicities and Cardiac-Sparing Techniques in Radiotherapy.

This review article aims to synthesize existing data on radiation-induced heart diseases in patients undergoing chest radiation therapy and also explores cardiac-sparing techniques to mitigate cardiotoxic effects. We conducted a comprehensive database search to review and consolidate data regarding chest radiotherapy and effects on the heart as well as techniques to minimize exposure to the heart. The research findings demonstrate associations between radiation exposure to cardiac substructures and subsequent cardiotoxicity.
