This clinical report describes a staged approach using a removable partial denture (RPD) and a transitional implant-supported overdenture as interim prostheses in treating a failing anterior dentition with posterior implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (FPD), until the time a full-arch fixed implant-supported prosthesis may be inserted. The RPD replaced the anterior teeth following their extraction and during implant osseointegration. The implant-supported overdenture rehabilitated the arch during the fabrication phase of the definitive restoration.

Blood sampling is often performed during animal studies. This is more challenging in mice than in larger animal species owing to their size and lack of blood vessel visibility. Guidelines for blood sampling in mice and papers on animal welfare often refer to the submandibular, cheek, buccal, and anterior facial veins.

Background: Involution or aging is the most common cause of lower eyelid entropion (in-turning of eyelid margin) in the elderly population. Various pathomechanisms have been postulated for its occurrence. Aging leads to laxity of tissues and loss of muscle tone.

We report the management of a convexity dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) in an uncommon anterior superior sagittal sinus (SSS) location. This was a high-risk Cognard IIa+b dAVF, which is notoriously complex to treat. Endoscopic management alone for complex SSS dAVFs is challenging due to the often bilateral arterial supply to the fistula, as demonstrated in this case.

Mouse models of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) enable testing of novel therapeutic interventions. However, treatments that have extended survival in mice have often failed to translate into human benefit in clinical trials. Compound muscle action potentials (CMAPs) are a simple neurophysiological test that measures the summation of muscle fiber depolarization in response to maximal stimulation of the innervating nerve.
