AI Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how different surgical guide designs and implant placement locations impact the accuracy of guided implant placement in single edentulous sites.
- 45 models were scanned and divided into three groups based on surgical guide design, with a total of 180 implants placed and evaluated for accuracy using surface scans.
- Results showed that while all guide designs performed satisfactorily, shorter surgical guides had higher accuracy for single implants, while full-arch guides with a crossbar were more effective for placing multiple implants simultaneously.
Article Abstract
The aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of (1) the different surgical guide designs and (2) implant placement location on the accuracy of fully guided implant placement in single edentulous sites using an in vitro study model. Forty-five partially edentulous models were scanned and divided into 3 groups: group 1, tooth-supported full-arch surgical guide; group 2, 3 different tooth-supported shortened surgical guides (SSGs); and group 3, tooth-supported full-arch surgical guide with a crossbar. All surgical guides were printed and used for fully guided implant placement. A total of 180 implants (60 per group) were placed, and scan bodies were positioned on all models, and postoperative surface scan files (STL) files were obtained. Superimposition of preoperative and postoperative STL files was performed, and the accuracy of implant position was evaluated. The interaction between group and implant location was statistically significant for angle, 3D offset at the base, and at the tip (P < .001). The post-hoc tests showed a statistically significantly higher deviation for group 2 compared to group 3 for all outcomes for implants #4 (P < .05) and #7 (P < .05). There was also a statistically significant difference in all outcomes between groups 1 and 3 for implant #7 (P < .05). All surgical guide designs presented satisfactory performance with clinically acceptable levels of deviation. However, SSGs presented higher accuracy for guided implant placement in a single-edentulous site, whereas a full-arch surgical guide with a crossbar presented superior outcomes when 2 or more guided implants were placed simultaneously.

Background And Aims: Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) is a clinical manifestation of mechanical obstruction at the antropyloric region or proximal small bowel. The goal of endoscopic management is to relieve the obstruction so patients can resume per oral intake. Most studies have focused on malignant causes of GOO; yet only a handful have explored outcomes related to benign etiologies.

Purpose: Age-related cataract (ARC) remains one of the leading causes of blindness globally. Despite the satisfactory outcomes of surgical interventions, significant disparities in access to medical care prevent many patients from receiving effective treatment. Thus, identifying reliable biomarkers and therapeutic targets to expand treatment options for ARC is essential.

Background: Early and accurate diagnosis of sepsis and the ensuing organ dysfunction remain a challenge in the postoperative setting. Susceptibility to infections, as well as the subsequent immunological response, are driven to some extent by the genetic predisposition of the patient. The purpose of this study was to identify novel genetic variants associated with postoperative sepsis (POS) and surgical site infections (SSIs).

Background: Children with cleft lip ± palate (CL/P) may undergo nasoalveolar molding (NAM) before surgery to achieve arch alignment and tension-free closure, yet the endpoint of arch dimensions has not been defined.
Objective: To characterize the size and shape of infant palates using anatomic landmarks on magnetic resonance imaging in infants without CL/P.
Methods: Magnetic resonance imaging of infants without cleft palate younger than 3 months were reviewed and 13 measurements were taken to define palatal shape: distance between incisive foramen (IF) and incisors (IN), IF and middle of canines (MOC), between MOCs, between first molars (FM), 2 depth and 4 angle measurements.

Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University;
Hepatic insulin clearance is essential for maintaining glucose homeostasis and is closely linked to metabolic disorders such as obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes. Accurate measurement of insulin clearance is vital for understanding the underlying mechanisms of these conditions. This protocol presents a straightforward and user-friendly hepatic perfusion procedure in mice, specifically designed to directly evaluate the hepatic insulin clearance rate.
