Success Rates of Dental Implants in Patients With Diabetes: A Systematic Review.

This systematic review evaluates the success rates of dental implants in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, focusing on outcomes such as implant survival, marginal bone loss, and peri-implant biomarkers. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across multiple databases, including PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science, to identify relevant systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Four studies were included, encompassing diverse populations and interventions.

Perspective: Multi-omics and Artificial Intelligence for Personalized Nutritional Management of Diabetes in Patients Undergoing Peritoneal Dialysis.

Managing diabetes in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) is challenging due to the combined effects of dietary glucose, glucose from dialysate, and other medical complications. Advances in technology that enable continuous biological data collection are transforming traditional management approaches. This review explores how multi-omics technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) are enhancing glucose management in this patient population.

Discovery of FHD-286, a First-in-Class, Orally Bioavailable, Allosteric Dual Inhibitor of the Brahma Homologue (BRM) and Brahma-Related Gene 1 (BRG1) ATPase Activity for the Treatment of SWItch/Sucrose Non-Fermentable (SWI/SNF) Dependent Cancers.

BRM (SMARCA2) and BRG1 (SMARCA4) are mutually exclusive ATPase subunits of the mSWI/SNF (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex. BAF is an attractive therapeutic target because of its role in transcription, and mutations in the subunits of BAF are common in cancer and neurological disorders. Herein, we report the discovery of compound () as a potent allosteric inhibitor of the dual ATPase subunits from a high-throughput screening hit with a BRM IC of ∼27 μM.

Identification of Naloxone in Emergency Medical Services Data Substantially Improves by Processing Unstructured Patient Care Narratives.

Objectives: Structured data fields, including medication fields involving naloxone, are routinely used to identify opioid overdoses in emergency medical services (EMS) data; between January 2021 and March 2024, there were approximately 1.2 million instances of naloxone administration in the United States. To improve the accuracy of naloxone reporting, we developed methodology for identifying naloxone administration using both structured fields and unstructured patient care narratives for events documented by EMS.

The Role of Robotics in Cardiac Surgery: Innovations, Outcomes, and Future Prospects.

In recent years, there has been a notable increase in the use of robotic technology in medical surgery, especially in heart surgery. Many advancements in surgery have been made possible by the development of these robotic devices, such as the da Vinci surgical system (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, California, United States). These advancements include improved ergonomics, three-dimensional (3D) imaging, and increased dexterity.
