Objectives: Macro-design influences the initial stability of implant and reduces micromotions. The aim of this study was to determine and compare micromotions and stress distribution in the bone around immediately loaded Maestro and Xive implants using finite element analysis.
Materials: In this experimental study, accurate, clear photos were prepared of Xive and Maestro implants 12 and 13 mm long and 4 and 3.8 mm in diameter, respectively, using a Nikon Digital Camera with a resolution 5.24-megapixels with 8x Optical Zoom and 4x Digital Zoom. After accurate measurements, 3-D models of the implants inside the lower mandible (D2) were processed in Solidworks Version 2003 environment and transferred into Ansys for finite element analysis. After loading of 500 N angled at 70 degrees from the horizontal plane, the micromotion of the implant and Von Misses stresses around the bone were measured.
Results: The measured micromotion in Maestro implant was 148 mum and that in Xive was 284 mum. Stress distribution in the bone surrounding Maestro implant was better than Xive, but maximum stress surrounding Xive implants (30 MPa) was lower than Maestro (33 MPa).
Conclusion: Based on the results obtained in the present study, maximum micromotion in maestro was less than that in Xive implants. This finding can guarantee the application of maestro implants for immediate loading.

Polymyxins, critical last-resort antibiotics, impact the distribution of membrane-bound divalent cations in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. We employed atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to model the effect of displacing these ions. Two polymyxin-sensitive and two polymyxin-resistant models of the outer membrane of were investigated.

Background: The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) has had a significant impact on healthcare organizations, leading to a reduction in screening. The pandemic period has caused important psychological repercussions in the most fragile patients.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the levels of depression, anxiety, peri-traumatic stress, and physical symptoms in patients undergoing colposcopy during the COVID-19 pandemic and to compare these data with the post-pandemic period.
Different Internal Fixation Methods for Sanders Type II and III Calcaneal Fractures: A 5-Year Retrospective Study and Finite Element Analysis.

Objective: Soft tissue defects and postoperative wound healing complications related to calcaneus fractures may result in significant morbidity. The aim of this study was to investigate whether percutaneous minimally invasive screw internal fixation (PMISIF) can change this situation in the treatment of calcaneal fractures, and aimed to explore the mechanical effects of different internal fixation methods on Sanders type III calcaneal fractures through finite element analysis.
Methods: This retrospective analysis focused on 83 patients with Sanders II and III calcaneal fractures from March 2017 to March 2022.

Background: This study assessed stress distributions in simulated mandibular molars filled with various materials after the removal of fractured instruments from the apical thirds of the root canals.
Methods: Finite element models of the mesial and distal root canals were created, where fractured instruments were assumed to be removed using a staging platform established with a modified Gates-Glidden bur (Woodpecker, Guangxi, P.R.
Assessing psychosocial risk factors in children with Sickle Cell Disease.

Background: Individuals with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) are a minoritized and marginalized community that have disparate health outcomes as a result of systemic racism and disease-related stigma. The purpose of this study was to determine the psychosocial risk factors for families caring for children with SCD at a pediatric SCD center through use of the Psychosocial Assessment Tool (PAT), a validated caregiver-report screener.
Methods: The PAT was administered annually during routine clinical visits and scored by the SCD Social Worker to provide tailored resources to families.
