Introduction: Ankylosis of a maxillary incisor involves evolutive resorption for which clinical management is difficult for both general practitioners and orthodontists. This anomaly can give rise to potentially major aesthetic, functional and occlusal defects. The ankylosed tooth will be lost, in the short or long term, depending on the bone remodeling.
Materials And Methods: The aim of this review was to determine the different therapeutic options known to date and allow the construction of several clinical decision support systems (summary tables and decision tree).
Results: The different techniques were classified in three categories: abstention, conservative treatments and surgical treatments. The therapeutic objectives, indications and potential complications were listed for each technique. The possible persistence of an ankylotic zone or the ability to move the tooth after treatment was also recorded.
Discussion: The therapeutic solution is decided on after a precise diagnosis in order to evaluate the extent of the resorption and its localization. The chosen treatment will be more or less stable, conservative, aesthetic and expensive, and will have varying success rates. The time component must be taken into account and an individualised diagnosis and treatment plan are necessary to select the most appropriate therapeutic option for patients.

Precise and effective management of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) is still a formidable challenge in clinical practice. Additionally, real-time monitoring of drug aggregation in the MIRI region remains an open question. Herein, a drug delivery system, hesperadin and ICG assembled in PLGA-Se-Se-PEG-IMTP (HI@PSeP-IMTP), is designed to deliver hesperadin and ICG to the MIRI region for in vivo optical imaging tracking and to ameliorate MIRI.

Aims: Evaluate glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and weight changes after 6 months of once-weekly (QW) injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) therapy in UK primary care.
Materials And Methods: Retrospective, non-interventional study, using the Clinical Practice Research Datalink Aurum primary care database, identified adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) newly initiating a QW injectable GLP-1 RA between January 2020 and November 2021. Dual primary outcomes were proportion of patients with (1) HbA1c < 7% (<53 mmol/mol) and (2) weight loss categories (from 0% to 15+%) after 6 months of continuous GLP-1 RA therapy.

Objective: We aimed to examine the relationship between the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a condition often caused by obesity, which remains unclear.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey among adults in the United States (US) aged 20 to 65 years, covering the periods 2005 to 2008 and 2015 to 2018. The study included 8278 participants; we used multivariate logistic regression, restricted cubic splines, and subgroup analyses to explore the relationship between WWI and OSA.

Objectives: Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) is a rare condition characterized by inactivating mutations in the calcium-sensing receptor () gene, leading to significant hypercalcemia and related complications.
Case Presentation: We present a case of a six-day-old male infant with weakness, jaundice, and hypotonia, later diagnosed with NSHPT due to a known homozygous mutation (c.242T>A; p.

The growing prevalence of the Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an increasing public health concern that led to French recommendations for timely AD diagnosis and patient management as well as a territorial coverage of specialized structures [Memory Centers including Resources and Memory Research Centers (RMRC) and Memory Consultations (MC)]. In view of the potential availability of Disease Modifying Therapies (DMTs), this French observatory aimed to describe the current organization of the Memory Centers, and the care pathway of patients suffering from early AD. Overall, 12 of the 28 RMRC and 44 of the 250 MC solicited by the Federation of Memory Centers participated in this study.
