Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine clinical and radiographic outcomes of immediate and delayed placement of dental implants in molar and premolar regions.
Materials And Methods: Clinical and radiographic records of 116 patients who received implants in molar and premolar regions were included in this study. After implantation, patients were recalled for assessments at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and every year thereafter. In addition, anatomic location, type of prosthesis, gender, stage, diameter, and length of implants were analyzed.
Results: Of these 116 patients, 55 were males, and 61 were females. Their mean age was 50.9 years. They received 85 immediate implants and 147 delayed implants in molar and premolar regions. Gender, type of prosthesis, stage, implant diameter, and implant length were not significantly different between the immediate placement group and the delayed placement group, although anatomic locations were significantly different between the 2 groups. Their mean follow up time after dental implantation was 3 years (range, 6 months to 9 years). Kaplan-Meier survival estimates showed 97.8% probability of survival up to 9 years in the delayed placement group and 100% probability of survival up to 8 years in the immediate placement group. There was no significant difference in implant survival according to the time of implantation. No significant difference in cervical bone loss (CBL) at the mesial or distal side was found between the 2 groups. CBL according to anatomic location, the type of prosthesis, or gender was not significantly different either between the 2 groups. However, CBL at distal side of 1-stage approach was significantly (P < .05) smaller in the delayed placement group than that in the immediate placement group.
Conclusion: This study showed that immediate dental implantation in molar and premolar regions had good clinical and radiographic outcomes.

Importance: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affects approximately 50% of women. There are limited data regarding trends in management as treatment options have changed.
Objective: This study aimed to analyze trends in the surgical management of SUI, including slings and urethral bulking, from 2012 to 2022.

Purpose: The diagnosis and management of hypercalcemia in hospitalized patients can be challenging. Hypercalcemia is often associated with significant morbidity and end-organ damage which may delay a patient's recovery.
Methods: We report a case series of three patients who underwent orthopedic procedures with intraoperative placement of vancomycin-loaded calcium sulfate beads.

Background: Patient-reported penicillin allergies are frequently encountered in the emergency department (ED), which often lead to non-beta-lactam antibiotic use despite beta-lactams' place as first-line therapy in most bacterial infections. The PEN-FAST clinical decision tool was developed and validated to identify patients with a low risk of true penicillin allergies that do not require formal skin testing for rechallenging. The tool consists of four questions that add up to a total score ranging from 0 to 5.

Arterial diseases (ADs) are a significant health problem, with high mortality and morbidity rates. Endovascular interventions, such as balloon angioplasty (BA), bare-metal stents (BMSs), drug-eluting stents (DESs) and drug-coated balloons (DCBs), have made significant progress in their treatments. However, the issue has not been fully resolved, with restenosis remaining a major concern.

Objective: Dynamic navigation approaches are widely employed in the context of implant placement surgery. Implant surgery can be divided into immediate and delayed surgery according to the time of implantation. This retrospective study was developed to compare the accuracy of dynamic navigation system for immediate and delayed implantations.
