Article Synopsis
- * The study examined 486,368 records, finding that 223,742 patients underwent surgical treatments (arthroplasty or internal fixation) while 262,626 were treated conservatively, with an average patient age of 66.6 years and a higher proportion of women among surgical cases.
- * The results indicate a significant rise in surgical treatments, particularly internal fixation and arthroplasty, with these methods becoming the preferred options by 2022, especially for women and patients aged
This systematic review aimed to evaluate the available evidence on the incidence and quantification of 3-dimensional changes in mandibular condyles after orthognathic surgery by bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO), with or without maxillary surgery, in class III symmetrical or asymmetrical individuals. The databases PubMed, Lilacs, Web of Science, Embase, SciELO, Scopus, EBSCO, Cochrane, and Google Scholar were surveyed and the study was registered on the PROSPERO (CRD42022383594). The selected studies met the criteria established by the PICO model: 1: Population - individuals over 18 years of age with class III dentofacial skeletal deformities; 2: Intervention - orthognathic surgery using BSSO; 3: Comparison - condylar tomographic measurements (volume, thickness, height, and width) prior to the surgical procedure; and 4: Results - condylar tomographic measurements (volume, thickness, height, and width) at least 12 months after surgery.

Article Synopsis
- The plantar fascia rupture is a rare yet serious injury often seen in active individuals, leading to partial or complete tears that affect foot function and stability.
- A case study of a healthy 35-year-old male recreational cyclist showed a spontaneous rupture with no prior trauma, confirmed by MRI, resulting in pain and swelling.
- After 12 weeks of conservative treatment including physiotherapy and rehabilitation, the patient experienced significant pain reduction and regained full mobility with a complete resolution of the injury observed in follow-up assessments.
