Statement Of Problem: Oral rehabilitation with implants is an alternative to the provision of removable dentures in all patients for whom missing teeth require replacement. However, individuals with cognitive, mental health issues, and/or physical disabilities are often excluded from implant-supported prostheses because of the high perceived risk of failure linked to poor oral health, presence of parafunction, or systemic conditions.
Purpose: The purpose of this cohort study was to describe the protocols, outcomes, and survival rates of oral rehabilitation with implant-supported prostheses in patients with cognitive and physical disabilities treated under general anesthesia (GA) in a French unit of Special Care Dentistry.
Material And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patient files. Data collected included demographics and information about the surgical and prosthetic phases of rehabilitation. Clinical and radiological reports were retrieved to establish the survival, success, and failure rates of implant placement according to the Health Scale for Dental Implants (HDSI) classification.
Results: A total of 298 dental implants had been placed under GA in 57 patients between January 2007 and August 2021. The prevalence of technical and biological postoperative complications was found to be 14% and 13% respectively. Thirty implants were determined to be failures. The estimated survival time in the population studied for loaded implants was 144.7 months [138.0; 151.3]. The cumulative survival rate was estimated to be 86% at 157 months.
Conclusions: Implant-supported prostheses were found to be effective, and oral rehabilitation carried out under the conditions described was determined to be stable.

Background: Humans experience functioning difficulties in daily life, which are dependent on the interaction between health conditions and barriers in life. In general, functioning is an umbrella term and a dynamic concept. Thus, identifying the factors associated with long-term functioning would be beneficial to the development of specific health policies and quality of life for people with disabilities.

Adaptive cycling holds potential for promoting physical and mental health among individuals with disabilities, who often face barriers to traditional cycling and other forms of exercise. This scoping review systematically examines existing scientific literature to assess the effects of adaptive cycling on the physical and mental health of individuals with disabilities. Following a widely recognized methodological scoping review framework, 35 qualitative and quantitative studies were identified through comprehensive database searches and manual screenings.

Decision to transfer to hospital, when not aligned with the resident's wishes, can result in transfers that are harmful to residents, leaving residents in a state of disability that could be considered worse than death.

This paper challenges the prevailing belief that assistance dogs inherently love their roles, arguing that the notion of "unconditional love" in discourses on assistance dog perpetuates a human-centric perspective and reinforces speciesism. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing the affective experiences of these working animals and of acknowledging the interdependence between people with disabilities and assistance dogs. The paper has four main objectives: (1) critiquing the concept of unconditional love attributed to assistance dogs, (2) recognizing the physical and affective labor of assistance dogs, (3) highlighting the importance of interdependence over independence, and (4) exploring the intersections of ableism and speciesism in the context of assistance dogs.
