Objectives: To explore the use of immediate implant placement technique in peri-implantitis modeling, shorten the modeling period, and obtain similar effects.
Materials And Methods: Eighty rats were divided into 4 groups: immediate placement (IP), delayed placement (DP), IP-ligation (IP-L) and DP-ligation (DP-L). In the DP and DP-L groups, implants were placed 4 weeks after tooth extraction. In the IP and IP-L groups, implants were placed immediately. Four weeks later, the implants were ligated to induce peri-implantitis in the DP-L and IP-L groups.
Results: Nine implants were lost (3 in the IP-L and 2 each in the IP, DP, and DP-L group). The bone level decreased after ligation, and the buccal and lingual bone levels were lower in IP-L versus DP-L. The implant pullout strength was decreased after ligation. Micro-CT showed bone parameters were decreased after ligation, and the percent bone volume was higher in IP versus DP. Histology showed that the percent of CD4 + cells and IL-17 + cells was increased after ligation and higher in IP-L versus DP-L.
Conclusions: We successfully introduced immediate implant placement into the modeling of peri-implantitis and observed similar bone resorption and more soft tissue inflammation in a shorter time.

Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the accuracy and safety of the semi-active robotic system for implant placement in atrophic posterior maxilla.
Methods: Patients underwent robot-assisted implant placement in atrophic posterior maxilla were identified and included. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed before surgery.

Prcis: In the real-world, retrospective, EXPAND study of consecutive adults with glaucoma, ab-externo gel stent implantation effectively lowered intraocular pressure (34%) and the medication burden (61%), with transient/self-resolving hypotony as the most frequent adverse event (28%).
Purpose: To assess effectiveness and safety of ab-externo gel stent (GS) implantation in glaucoma.
Methods: Multicenter, real-world, retrospective study.

Finite element analysis has become indispensable for biomechanical research on clavicle fractures. This review summarized evidence regarding configurations and applications of finite element analysis in clavicle fracture fixation. Seventeen articles involving 22 clavicles were synthesized from CINAHL, Embase, IEEE Xplore, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases.

Purpose: To present a modified evisceration technique with a full-thickness horizontal sclerotomy and assess post-operative motility and long-term outcomes.
Methods: This is a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent evisceration with a single surgeon (TJM). The standard initial steps of evisceration were performed.

Purpose: Few studies have explored the bone response in dental implant sites prepared using a piezoelectric device, indicating moderate effectiveness in enhancing secondary stability and osteogenesis. This study seeks to expand our understanding of the changes in biological, clinical, and radiographic parameters, during the initial phases of osseointegration in sites prepared with piezoelectric surgery.
Materials And Methods: Two implant sites were prepared in the tibia of four minipigs.
