For reasons of different data in literature on occlusal parameters and their metric registration at the beginning of the eighties two methods, independent from each other, were developed to registrate the total occlusal contact area and the number of occlusal surfaces of contact on dental casts--the capacity measuring method and the quasi-planimetry method. The results obtained independently from each other show a high degree of correspondence. Because of its easy handling the method of quasi-planimetry was further developed and used for direct analysis of enorally obtained wafers of different characteristics. The total surface of occlusal contacts in the static occlusion ran up to 4-6 mm2, and the number of stops to 19-30. The method of qualitative and quantitative analysis of occlusal parameters is improved with a modern system of digital analysis. The results obtained up to now admit the conclusion that the occlusion of the teeth represents an individual condition of high variability.

Polycystic kidney diseases (PKD) are genetic disorders which disrupt kidney architecture and function. Autosomal recessive PKD (ARPKD) is a rare form of PKD, caused by mutations in PKHD1, and clinically more severe than the more common autosomal dominant PKD (ADPKD). Prior studies have implicated Hedgehog (Hh) signaling in ADPKD, with increased levels of Hh components in experimental ADPKD and reduced cystogenesis following pharmacological Hh inhibition.

Methods: Clinical data from 100 CHB patients admitted to our hospital from April 2022 to April 2024 were retrospectively reviewed. Of these, 45 cases in the control group received ETV, and 55 cases in the research group received TDF tablets.
Management of Femoral Condyle Insufficiency Fractures Following Total Knee Arthroplasty (FCIF-TKA).

Orthopedic Surgery, Sengkang General Hospital, Singapore, SGP.
Background: Femoral condyle insufficiency fractures following total knee arthroplasty (FCIF-TKA) are rare but significant complications. These fractures, characterized by atraumatic bone insufficiency near the femoral component, present unique challenges in postoperative care, often necessitating femoral component revision.
Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed 835 primary total knee arthroplasties performed by a single surgeon, identifying six cases of FCIF-TKA.
