Purpose: To compare time-dependent outcome of immediately loaded 1-piece (1P) implants with delayed loaded 1P and 2-piece (2P) implants.
Materials And Methods: A cohort of 33 patients divided into 3 groups: group A, 13 patients, 49 immediately placed and loaded 1P implants; group B, 11 patients, immediately placed and delayed loaded 1P implants; and group C, 10 patients, 39 2P implants delayed placed and loaded in a two-stage procedure. Marginal bone loss (MBL) was analyzed using x-ray radiography every 6 months, 1 year, and 3 years.
Results: A statistically significant mean MBL was observed between baseline, 6 months, 1 year, and 3 years in all groups. There was no statistical significant difference in MBL between immediate and delayed loaded 1P implants. MBL around mandibular implants was lower compared with maxillary implants.
Conclusions: 2P implants showed less MBL compared with 1P implants in both maxilla and mandible. There was no statistical difference in MBL between immediate and delayed loaded 1P implants. Immediate loaded implants show more MBL in maxilla.

Malignant biliary obstruction presents a significant therapeutic challenge and has serious consequences including cholangitis and death. Clinically, biliary stenting using self-expanding metallic- stent(SEMS) relieves this obstruction. However, stent occlusion occurs with time due to tumor/epithelial in-growth and bacterial colonization.

Limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) causes vision loss and is often treated by simple corneal epithelial cell transplantation with poor long-term efficiency. Here, we present a biomimetic bilayer limbal implant using digital light processing 3D printing technology with gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) and poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) bioinks containing corneal epithelial cells (CECs) and corneal stromal stem cells (CSSCs), which can transplant CECs and improve the limbal niche simultaneously. The GelMA/PEGDA hydrogel possessed robust mechanical properties to support surgical transplantation and had good transparency, suitable swelling and degradation rate as a corneal implant.

Background: Low back pain affects over 80 % of adults, with sacroiliac joint dysfunction accounting for 15-30 % of these cases. Sacroiliac fusion is a surgical procedure for refractory joint pain. While the biomechanics of the joint and its fusion relative to the spinal column are well-known, the hip-spine relationship post-fusion remains unclear.

Wear particle reaction is present in every arthroplasty. Sometimes, this reaction may lead to formation of large pseudotumors. As illustrated in this case, the volume of the reaction may be out of proportion to the volume of the wear scar.

Sandblasting and acid etching are common procedures used to treat implant surfaces, enhancing osseointegration and improving clinical success rates. This clinical study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcomes of sandblasted and acid-etched implants. A total of 303 implants were placed in 114 partially and totally edentulous patients using a two-stage surgical technique and an early loading protocol (6-8 weeks).
