Accuracy of robot-assisted implant surgery versus freehand placement: a retrospective clinical study.

Purpose: This study evaluated the accuracy of implant placement using a robotic system (Remebot) compared to freehand surgery and explored factors influencing accuracy.

Methods: This retrospective study included 95 implants placed in 65 patients, divided into robot-assisted (50 implants) and freehand (45 implants) groups. Platform, apical, and angular deviations were measured by superimposing preoperative plans and the postoperative CBCT images.

An educational initiative aimed at increasing antimicrobial resistance awareness among school-going Jordanian youth.

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended strategies and actions to enhance awareness and understanding of AMR. Gaps in AMR awareness remain in Jordan, particularly among the youth.

Aim: To describe our programmatic approach to AMR education across Jordanian governorates among school-aged children.

Prophylactic 24 versus 48 h cephalosporins in cardiac surgery: A randomized trial.

Background: Recommendations for cardiac surgery advocate for antibiotic prophylaxis for up to 48 hour after surgery. However, recent reports found a significant reduction in surgical site infection with extended duration. We evaluated the effect of the type of prophylactic antibiotics and administration durations on the postoperative surgical site infection rate following cardiac surgery in adults.

Assessment of natural radioactivity levels in rice samples and their implications for radiological protection.

This study investigates the levels of natural and artificial radioactivity in rice samples collected from various local markets in Islamabad, Pakistan. The Ra, Th, and K activity concentrations were measured through gamma-ray spectrometry with a NaI(Tl) detector. The average activity concentrations were 1.
