This split-mouth trial investigated the efficacy of treating bilateral gingival recessions with either a xenogeneic cross-linked collagen matrix (CCM), or recombinant human platelet derived growth factor (rhPDGF-BB) with a bone allograft (AG). Ten patients were treated with the coronally advanced flap (CAF), either with a CCM, or rhPDGF-BB + AG. The primary outcome was percentage of mean root coverage (mRC) at 12 months.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate with ultrasonography (US) the location of GPF, the course of the GPA, and to measure palatal fibromucosa thickness.
Materials And Methods: This in vivo experiment was conducted on a group of healthy, young Turkish subjects. Using the US, the localization of the GPF, its diameter and opening type, maximum flow velocity (Vmax) and collateral branches (CB) of the GPA, and the thickness of the palatine mucosa were evaluated.

Malnutrition is a common health problem affecting overall body functions, growth, and development. The aim of the present study was to explore any potential changes in solid organ sizes due to malnutrition and, if so, their correlation with the degree of malnutrition. Solid organ sizes (liver, spleen, and kidneys) in patients with primary malnutrition were measured prospectively using ultrasonography.

: Point-of-care lung ultrasonography (LUS) represents an accurate diagnostic tool in older patients with respiratory failure. The integration of LUS with ultrasonographic assessment of diaphragm thickness and excursion, right vastus lateralis (RVL) muscle thickness and cross-sectional area (CSA) could provide real-time information on frailty and sarcopenia. The primary aim of this proof-of-concept prospective study was to evaluate clinical correlates of thoracic, diaphragmatic, and muscular ultrasound to characterize the associations between frailty, respiratory failure, and sarcopenia in older patients hospitalized for acute respiratory complaints.
