Studies are needed to determine the prognosis of different forms of dental prosthetic rehabilitation and the main complications involved. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate technical complications involving implant-supported prostheses. A retrospective one time snap-shot study was carried out with a total of 509 implants in 153 patients. Prosthetic conditions were determined by clinical and radiographic examination. The least frequent technical complication involved fracture (0.2%), loss (0.4%) and loosening (3.3%) of the screw. The most frequent complications were loss of resin covering the screw (23.8%), loss of overdenture retention (18.6%) and fractures of the resin (12.4%). A high frequency of misfit between the prosthesis and abutment (25.4%) was found, which was significantly associated (P < 0.05) with other variables, especially cemented prostheses (P < 0.001). To minimize the frequency of complications, protocols must be established from diagnosis to the completion of treatment and follow up of implant-supported prostheses, especially in terms of adequate technical steps and careful radiographic evaluation of the components.

TiRobot-assisted versus freehand femoral neck system placement in the treatment of femoral neck fractures: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

J Robot Surg

January 2025

The Third Ward of Orthopaedic Department, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, 804 Shengli South Street, Hui Autonomous Region, Yinchuan, Ningxia, 750004, People's Republic of China.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of TiRobot-assisted treatment for femoral neck fractures, in comparison to traditional freehand treatment methods. Throughout the research process, we conducted an extensive literature search across numerous databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), CQVIP, and Wanfang. Based on the literature screening criteria, we selected six studies, encompassing 358 cases of femoral neck fracture patients, for this meta-analysis.

Donor C1 Group KIR-ligand inferiority is linked to increased mortality in haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with post-transplant cyclophosphamide.

Cytotherapy

December 2024

Department of Internal Medicine I: Hematology with Stem Cell Transplantation, Hemostaseology and Medical Oncology, Ordensklinikum Linz-Elisabethinen, Linz, Austria; Medical Faculty, Johannes Kepler University, Linz, Austria.

Background Aims: In HLA-identical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), HLA-C1 group killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) ligands have been linked to graft-versus-host disease, whereas C2 homozygosity was associated with increased relapses. The differential impact of the recipients versus the donor's HLA-C KIR ligands cannot be determined in HLA-identical HSCT but may be elucidated in the haploidentical setting, in which HLA-C (including the HLA-C KIR ligand group) mismatching is frequently present.

Methods: We retrospectively investigated the effect of recipient versus donor C1 ligand content on survival and complications in post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based haploidentical HSCT (n = 170).

Purpose: To compare outcomes of LLR in VI/VII of the liver in Left-lateral Decubitus Jackknife Position (LDJP) and traditional Supine Position (SP). We used propensity score matching (PSM) to analyze clinical outcomes.

Patients & Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed patients undergoing LLR for liver tumors in segments VI and/or VII at Shandong Provincial Hospital from 2018 to 2023.
