Purpose: This prospective multicenter study evaluates the cumulative success rate of the Osseotite implant after 3 years of prosthetic loading.
Materials And Methods: A total of 413 Osseotite implants (Implant Innovations) were placed in 142 patients (completely or partially edentulous) in five dental offices exclusively devoted to implants. The average age of the patients was 58.3 years. Of the 413 implants, 191 were placed in the maxilla and 222 in the mandible; 271 (65.6%) were posterior implants and 142 (34.4%) were anterior implants. Clinical and radiographic evaluations were made after completion of the prosthetic restoration, after 6 months of loading, at 1 year, and at 3 years.
Results: A cumulative success rate of 95.3% was obtained after 3 years of prosthetic loading. The success rate was similar in both arches: 95.1% in the maxilla and 96.8% in the mandible. Early failures (before prosthetic loading) were greater (n = 12) than late failures (n = 2). After 3 years of prosthetic loading, the marginal bone level of 385 (93.2%) implants were evaluated radiographically. Bone level was at the first thread for 91.4% of the implants. A slightly increased loss was observed around 26 implants (6.7%). Including survival implants, the cumulative implant success rate after 3 years was 96%. A success rate of 98.4% was obtained with 187 short implants (8, 5 and 10 mm) reported in this multicenter evaluation.
Conclusion: This multicenter evaluation demonstrates excellent predictability for Osseotite implants.

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) assisted bronchoscopy shows prospective advantages in diagnosing peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs), but its diagnostic value and potential influencing factors remain unclear. What is the clinical value and optimal strategy of CBCT-assisted bronchoscopy in diagnosing PPLs? The references were searched from PubMed, EmBase, and Web of Science. Studies reporting diagnostic yield and potential influencing factors of CBCT-assisted bronchoscopy were included.

Introduction: Nadezhda Clinic is a free student-run health clinic that provides culturally sensitive primary care services to the underserved Russian-speaking population of the greater Sacramento area. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the clinic suspended in-person services and solely offered telemedicine visits. Most patients were hesitant to utilize telemedicine due to poor technological literacy, privacy concerns, and a preference for in-person care.

Importance: Retrograde cricopharyngeus dysfunction (R-CPD) is an emerging disorder associated with disabling symptoms. The origin of R-CPD remains unknown.
Objective: To investigate the development of symptoms, diagnosis approach, and therapeutic outcomes of R-CPD in patients treated with in-office botulinum toxin injection (BTI) into the cricopharyngeus.

Oligorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa) can be treated with metastasis-directed therapy (MDT), which may be performed using radioguided surgery (RGS) as an experimental approach. These procedures have shown promising outcomes, largely due to the high lesion detection rate of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). We present a case series of patients who underwent RGS following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).
