Purpose: To evaluate the success rate and marginal bone loss in dental implants loaded after 8 weeks in the maxilla and after 6 weeks in the mandible, after 1 year of follow-up.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective case series study was made. The sample was composed of subjects having 1 or more implants placed and loaded early between 2004 and 2006. Success rate was evaluated following Buser's criteria. A protocol was made in which patient age, gender, implant location, diameter and length, type of bone, type of prosthesis, and the location of the opposing teeth were collected. Marginal bone loss was evaluated after 1 year of loading on intraoral x-ray findings. A statistical analysis was made to process the variables.
Results: A total of 106 dental implants were positioned in 30 patients, in whom 102 prostheses were placed. The fixation success rate was 98.1%; mean bone loss was 0.58 mm after 1 year of loading. The factors seen to exert a significant influence on bone loss were the zone of the arch and the teeth opposing the implant.
Conclusion: The recorded success rate and bone loss were similar to the values reported in the literature, thus supporting early loading as a safe and predictable procedure that allows a reduction in treatment time.

Background: Sequential CD19 and CD22 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy offers a promising approach to antigen-loss relapse in relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL); however, research in adults remains limited.
Methods: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T cell therapy in adult patients with R/R B-ALL between November 2020 and November 2023 (ChiCTR2100053871). Key endpoints included the adverse event incidence, overall survival (OS), and leukemia-free survival (LFS).

Purpose: Cochlear implantation (CI) surgery is essential for restoring hearing in individuals with severe sensorineural hearing loss. Accurate placement of the electrode within the cochlea is essential for successful auditory outcomes and minimizing complications. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the round window niche (RWN) alignment, its visibility during surgery, and the impact on surgical techniques and outcomes.

Purpose: Bone cement-reinforced fenestrated pedicle screws (FPSs) have been widely used in the internal fixation and repair of the spine with osteoporosis in recent years and show significant improvement in fixation strength and stability. However, compared with conventional reinforcement methods, the advantages of bone cement-reinforced FPSs remain undetermined. This article compares the effects of fenestrated and conventional pedicle screws (CPSs) combined with bone cement in the treatment of osteoporosis.

Articular cartilage and osteochondral defect repair and regeneration presents significant challenges to the field of tissue engineering (TE). TE and regenerative medicine strategies utilizing natural and synthetic-based engineered scaffolds have shown potential for repair, however, they face limitations in replicating the intricate native microenvironment and structure to achieve optimal regenerative capacity and functional recovery. Herein, we report the development of a cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) as a printable biomaterial for tissue regeneration.
