Donor site wound healing following free gingival graft surgery using platelet rich fibrin: A randomized controlled trial.
J Periodontol
July 2024
Department of Periodontics, UT Health San Antonio School of Dentistry, San Antonio, Texas, USA.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to compare the healing of palatal tissue when using platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) versus a hemostatic agent as post-surgery wound dressings for free gingival grafts in 74 patients.
- - Patient pain levels and analgesic use were measured using a numerical scale at multiple time points, but results showed no significant differences between the two groups for both pain perception and medication intake.
- - Although both groups exhibited improved healing over four weeks, there were no significant differences in healing outcomes or pain management between the PRF and hemostatic agent treatments.

Achilles Tendon Rupture Repair Using the Mini-Open Approach in a Supine Position.
JBJS Essent Surg Tech
March 2023
University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama.
Background: The mini-open approach with supine patient positioning is a useful technique to consider for acute Achilles rupture repair, ideally performed within 2 weeks from the time of injury. The traditional surgical approach is completed with the patient in the prone position with an extensile midline incision. Here we describe a mini-open approach with supine positioning that utilizes a single incision measuring approximately 3 to 4 cm in length and avoids the pitfalls of prone positioning, which include greater operative time and potential difficult airway management, vision loss, and brachial plexus palsies.

Phys Ther
April 2024
Department of Health and Rehabilitation, Unit of Physiotherapy, Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden.
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate whether early postpartum exercise is associated with changes in pelvic symptom severity, pelvic floor muscle strength, and diastasis recti abdominis (DRA) from 3 to 12 months postpartum.
Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 504 participants with and without pelvic symptoms (pelvic girdle pain, stress urinary incontinence, vaginal heaviness) were followed. At 3, 6, 9, and 12 months postpartum, we assessed pelvic symptoms, exercise behavior (by questionnaires), pelvic floor muscle strength (by vaginal palpation), and DRA (by caliper measurement).
