Objectives: To compare miniscrew versus bone tracing registration methods on dental implant placement accuracy and time efficiency in edentulous jaws using a dynamic computer-assisted implant surgery (d-CAIS) system.
Methods: Twelve fully edentulous maxillary models were allocated into two groups: miniscrew tracing (MST) group, where registration was performed by tracing four miniscrews; and bone tracing (BT) group, where registration was conducted by tracing maxillary bone fiducial landmarks. Six implants were placed on each model using the X-Guide® d-CAIS system.
The effect on the performance of a dynamic navigation system of superimposing a standard tessellation language (STL) file obtained with an intraoral scan on a cone beam computer tomograph (CBCT). An experimental in vitro study.

Objectives: To compare the accuracy and operative time of implant placement using a dynamic computer assisted implant surgery (dCAIS) system based on a cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) image, with and without superimposing a standard tessellation language (STL) file of an intraoral scan of the patient.
Methods: Ten identical resin models simulating an upper maxilla with posterior edentulism were assigned to two groups. In the CBCT+STL group, a CBCT file and an intraoral STL file were superimposed and used for registration; in the CBCT group, registration was performed using CBCT images.
Objectives: To determine the prevalence of peri-implant diseases in patients treated in a university setting without a regular peri-implant supportive therapy schedule, and to identify the risk indicators associated with peri-implantitis.
Material And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was made of patients with dental implants with at least 12 months of functional loading who did not receive regular peri-implant supportive therapy. Patient- and implant-related variables were retrieved, and clinical and radiological examinations were performed.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of chondroitin sulfate (CS) and glucosamine (GS), the most relevant drugs of "Symptomatic Slow Acting Drug for Osteoarthritis" (SYSADOA), in the functional and symptomatic improvement of temporomandibular dysfunction. Although, controversy exists regarding their benefit.
Methods: An electronic search was conducted to retrieve randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs).
Objective: To face the COVID-19 pandemic, our intensive care and hospitalization units were expanded, surgical activity was limited to urgent and non-delayed procedures and teleconsultations were increased in order to minimize face-to-face consultations. The objective of this work was to learn users' satisfaction with teleconsultations performed during the pandemic as well as its benefits, applications and areas for improvement.
Methods: Cross-sectional study through a questionnaire with 26 closed questions and 5 open ones, grouped in 9 dimensions: patient characteristics; the query; treatment; utility; resolution; security; satisfaction; face-to-face modality and opportunities for improvement.
Background: To evaluate the use of guided bone regeneration with xenograft to prevent periodontal defect in the distal aspect of the second molar after the surgical removal of the mandibular third molar.
Material And Methods: Three electronic databases (Pubmed, Cochrane Library and Scopus) were searched in April 2020. Randomized clinical trials in non-smokers and healthy patients, with at least six months follow-up, comparing periodontal probing depth, clinical attachment level, alveolar bone level and adverse events were selected by two independent investigators.
Objective: To treat whole patient, spiritual and religious dimension included, allows improve the quality humanization healthcare. The aim of this study was to know the point of professional view regarding to assess this dimensions in patients attended in regional hospital.
Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study, through an ad-hoc survey with 30 issues (Likert 0: strongly disagree with 4: strongly agree), to health professionals, conducted in April 2017.
Objective: The avoidable hospital admissions for heart failure are a problem for health systems worldwide, as they waste resources, generate additional morbidities and high mortality. The objective of this study was to determine the risk factors in patients hospitalized for heart failure.
Methods: A group of medical from Hospital and Primary Care was established.
Objectives: To report the health outcomes of a multidisciplinary care program for patients over 65 years with hip fracture.
Patients And Methods: We have developed a care coordination model for the comprehensive care of hip fracture patients. It establishes what, who, when, how and where orthopedists, internists, family physicians, emergency, intensive care, physiotherapists, anesthetists, nurses and workers social intervene.
Objectives: To find out the level of satisfaction of patients seen in the Emergency room of the of San Juan de Dios Hospital, Aljarafe; to identify the determining factors and to define the areas that need improvement and reinforcement in order to improve the quality of care.
Material And Methods: A telephone survey was carried out between July and September, 2008, containing 44 questions, 2 with a closed response, 3 with yes/no answers and the remaining questions scored based on a Likert type scale of 1 (most negative answer) to 5 (most positive answer). Observations were also recorded.
Objective: To study user expectations on the portfolio of services and the care provided in the hospital San Juan de Dios del Aljarafe; to find out which aspects of the care provided are the most and least valued by the users; to provide more knowledge on the portfolio of services to the general public.
Materials And Method: We carried out a cross-sectional study in which 66 users of the Aljarafe healthcare district took part. They were divided into 9 focus groups according to age.
