Objectives: To evaluate three-dimensional external gap progression after chewing simulation of high translucency zirconia (HTZ) and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) applied on endodontically treated teeth with different preparation designs.
Materials And Method: Endodontically treated molars were prepared with low-retentive (adhesive overlay) and high-retentive (full crown) designs above cementum-enamel junction and restored with HTZ and ZLS. Micro-computed tomography analysis was assessed before and after chewing simulation to evaluate three-dimensionally the external gap progression. Results were statistically analyzed with two-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey test.
Results: High-retentive preparation design had a significantly inferior gap progression compared to the overlay preparation (p < 0.01); ZLS exhibited a significant inferior gap progression compared to HTZ (p < 0.01).
Conclusions: High-retentive preparations restored with ZLS seem to better perform in maintaining the sealing of the external margin after cyclic fatigue.
Clinical Significance: The clinician should pay attention to the proper combination of preparation designs and ceramic material selection for an endodontically treated molar restoration. HTZ seems to perform worse than lithium silicate in terms of marginal sealing, still showing lacks in resistance to cyclic fatigue when adhesive preparations are performed.

Delayed Neurological Deficits Following Lumbar 1 Burst Fracture: A Diagnostic Challenge Without Radiological Correlates.

Spinal cord injuries, including rare cases without radiological abnormalities, pose diagnostic challenges, particularly in cases of delayed neurological deficit development. This case report describes a 55-year-old man with a stable L1 burst fracture who developed delayed neurological deficits two weeks after sustaining a fall despite no evidence of intrinsic or extrinsic spinal cord abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patient initially presented with back pain, normal muscle strength across all myotomes, and imaging that showed no canal stenosis or retropulsion fragments.

Background: There is a growing evidence base to support the use of self-management interventions for improving quality of life after stroke. However, stroke survivors with aphasia have been underrepresented in research to date. It is therefore unclear if self-management is an appropriate or effective approach for this group.

Follicular lymphoma (FL) represents the most prevalent subtype of non-Hodgkin's-lymphoma in Western Europe and the United States. While the examination of two-dimensional histological slides remains the gold standard method for diagnosing FL stages, three-dimensional analysis provides additional insights, particularly regarding cellular morphology, spatial relationships and network connectivity. This investigation assessed the tumor-related morphological destruction of fibroreticular cell (FRC) networks bordering germinal centres in FL.

Background: Opioid medications are important for pain management, but many patients progress to unsafe medication use. With few personalized and accessible behavioral treatment options to reduce potential opioid-related harm, new and innovative patient-centered approaches are urgently needed to fill this gap.
Objective: This study involved the first phase of co-designing a digital brief intervention to reduce the risk of opioid-related harm by investigating the lived experience of chronic noncancer pain (CNCP) in treatment-seeking patients, with a particular focus on opioid therapy experiences.
