- - The study evaluated the effectiveness of atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) for elderly patients needing home dental care, using a cohort of 35 individuals who received 103 restorations.
- - One year post-treatment, ART showed a high success rate (73.8% of restorations remained without replacement), with specific surface types exhibiting better outcomes than others.
- - The findings suggest that ART is an effective and practical option for providing dental care in home settings for the elderly, who often face mobility challenges.
Introduction: Home care provided by dentists is crucial for ensuring adequate oral care. However, oral health professionals face challenges in delivering treatment at patients' residences due to a lack of resources. Our objective was to explore dentists' perspectives and experiences of dental home care and potential challenges for its implementation.

This report describes the case management of a high-risk 56-year-old man with dextrocardia who presented with multivessel coronary artery disease.

- The PRINCESS2-study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of ultrafast hypothermia (cooling initiated during or immediately after cardiac arrest) on neurologic recovery in patients who have suffered out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with shockable rhythms, compared to standard care without early cooling.
- The trial will involve randomly assigning 1022 patients to either receive trans-nasal cooling shortly after arrival of emergency medical services, followed by in-hospital hypothermia, or to receive standard care without cooling.
- The primary outcome measured will be survival with complete neurologic recovery at 90 days, with secondary outcomes including overall survival rates at hospital discharge and 90 days, and neurologic recovery scores.*
