Background: Virtual surgical planning for orthognathic surgery typically relies on two methods for intraoperative plan transfer: CAD/CAM occlusal splints and patient-specific implants (PSI). While CAD/CAM splints may offer limited accuracy, particularly in the vertical dimension, PSIs are constrained by higher costs and extended preparation times. Surgical navigation has emerged as a potential alternative, but existing protocols often involve invasive registration or lack transparent evaluation.

Background: Noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV), when in synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation, continuous positive airway pressure, or patient-triggered ventilation modes, is known to be a cause of facial, nasal, head, and skin pressure injuries in preterm infants.
Objective: The objective of this study is to examine the efficacy of using a checklist with preterm infants under nasal NIMV in preventing facial, nasal, and head pressure injuries.
Method: The study was conducted quasi-experimentally on preterm infants under NIMV.

Background: Ventricular arrhythmia (VA) originating from the left ventricular summit (LVS) poses particular challenges, with higher rates of ablation failure.
Objective: To further evaluate the anatomical ablation approach from the subaortic region for LVS VAs and their electrophysiological characteristics.
Method: The study enrolled 27 consecutive patients with sympatomatic VAs originating from LVS and who received an anatomical ablation approach from R-L ILT in our center.
Background: Annually, approximately 7.6 million individuals experience a new ischemic stroke, and roughly 25% of all ischemic strokes are cardiogenic in origin, carrying a high risk of recurrence, death and disability. To prevent future ischemic strokes, especially in younger individuals, it is crucial to detect and treat direct and indirect cardioembolic sources.

Methods: Maximum temperature rise caused by RF heating was measured at 1.5T on 20 insulated, capped wires with various loop and straight segment configurations.
