Material And Methods: Searches were conducted in 5 databases including the nonpeer-reviewed literature up to March 2024 by 2 independent reviewers according to established inclusion and exclusion criteria and according to the question: Can trans-sinus implants be a suitable option for the rehabilitation of the atrophic maxilla? The meta-analysis was carried out using the Revman software program for the variables implant loss and marginal bone loss using a 95% confidence interval.

Background: In an era of precision and stratified medicine, homogeneity in population-based cohorts, stringent causative entry, and pattern analysis of datasets are key elements to investigate medical treatments. Adhering to these principles, we collected and data pointing to an insulin-sensitizing/insulin-mimetic effect of myo-inositol (MYO) relevant to cell regeneration in dentistry and oral surgery. Confirmation of this possibility was obtained by analysis of the relation between and results (the so-called bed-to-benchside reverse translational approach).

Purpose: The aim of the present study was to determine the methodological quality of systematic reviews that evaluated the effectiveness of pentoxifylline and tocopherol (PENTO) in the treatment of osteoradionecrosis of the jaw (ORNJ) and medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ).
Methods: Searches were performed in Databases including PubMed, Scopus, LILACS, DARE, Cochrane Library, and SIGLE through OpenGrey until March 2024, were evaluated by two independent reviewers to answer the following question: Is the use of PENTO protocol effective in the treatment of ORNJ or for the treatment of MRONJ?
Results: A total of 256 articles were initially identified; however, following the use of appropriate inclusion and exclusion criteria, five systematic reviews were identified for detailed analysis. The final study sample comprised 588 patients: 397 patients with ORN and 197 patients with MRONJ who were treated with PENTO.
