Statement Of Problem: Digital surgical guides improve precision by detailing the direction, position, and angle of implants, which reduces surgery time and complications. A bibliometric analysis of guided surgery in implant dentistry is lacking.
Purpose: The aim of this metrics-based analysis was to analyze the trends and key characteristics of articles related to guided surgery in implant dentistry.
Material And Methods: The search was conducted in February 2024 on the Web of Science. The main characteristics of the studies were extracted and analyzed. Collaborative networks were generated using the Vosviewer software program. Dimension was consulted to measure Altmetric data. Correlation among data was determined by using the Spearman test.
Results: A total of 799 articles published between 1993 and 2023 were included. Most were case reports or series (n=26) using static guided surgery (n=672), primarily for dental implant placement (n=754). The studies typically employed a combination of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and digital scanning (n=316) for surgical planning. The most frequently used software program was coDiagnostiX (n=89), and the most commonly used guide type was the printed guide (n=161). The country with the most articles was the USA (n=137), though Europe stood out as the leading continent (n=398). The Vosviewer demonstrated strong collaborations among authors. According to Dimensions, significant mentions were identified in Mendeley, news outlets, and X.
Conclusions: An emerging trend in guided implant dentistry research was identified over the past 30 years through the use of software programs and 3D-printers for the fabrication of surgical guides. Europe showed the greatest interest in this topic, predominantly conducting research on static guided surgery for implant placement. Additional clinical studies and systematic reviews are needed.

Multi-level Factors to Build Confidence and Support in Active Surveillance for Low-Risk Prostate Cancer: A Qualitative Study.
J Gen Intern Med
January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.
Background: Active surveillance (AS) is the guideline-recommended treatment for low-risk prostate cancer and involves routine provider visits, lab tests, imaging, and prostate biopsies. Despite good uptake, adherence to AS, in terms of receiving recommended follow-up testing and remaining on AS in the absence of evidence of cancer progression, remains challenging.
Objective: We sought to better understand urologist, primary care providers (PCPs), and patient experiences with AS care delivery to identify opportunities to improve adherence.
Unveiling the role of PANoptosis-related genes in breast cancer: an integrated study by multi-omics analysis and machine learning algorithms.
Breast Cancer Res Treat
January 2025
Department of Breast Surgery, Thyroid Surgery, Huangshi Central Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Hubei Polytechnic University, No.141, Tianjin Road, Huangshi, 435000, Hubei, China.
Background: The heterogeneity of breast cancer (BC) necessitates the identification of novel subtypes and prognostic models to enhance patient stratification and treatment strategies. This study aims to identify novel BC subtypes based on PANoptosis-related genes (PRGs) and construct a robust prognostic model to guide individualized treatment strategies.
Methods: The transcriptome data along with clinical data of BC patients were sourced from the TCGA and GEO databases.
Deep learning based decision-making and outcome prediction for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients with posterior surgery.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics, Shanghai Changhai Hospital, Shanghai, 200433, China.
With the emergence of numerous classifications, surgical treatment for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) can be guided more effectively. However, surgical decision-making and optimal strategies still lack standardization and personalized customization. Our study aims to devise proper deep learning (DL) models that incorporate key factors influencing surgical outcomes on the coronal plane in AIS patients to facilitate surgical decision-making and predict surgical results for AIS patients.

Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, 2-2, Yamadaoka, Suita City, Osaka, Japan.
Lymph node sampling with endoscopic ultrasound fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) may affect treatment options for biliary tract cancers. Our aim is to clarify its utility and clinical significance and the factors associated with FNA cytology positivity. Seventy-one consecutive patients with biliary tract cancer who underwent EUS-FNA to diagnose lymphadenopathies from April 2012 to July 2021 were enrolled retrospectively.

J Sex Med
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Section of Urology, Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, Lebanon, NH 03756, United States.
Background: Understanding patient goals for metoidioplasty and phalloplasty gender-affirming surgery (MaPGAS) is paramount to achieving satisfactory, preference-sensitive outcomes, yet there is a lack of understanding of MaPGAS priorities and how these may vary between transgender men and non-binary individuals assigned female at birth (AFAB).
Aim: To understand the surgical goals of transgender men and non-binary individuals AFAB considering MaPGAS.
Methods: An online survey was created following literature review and qualitative interviews and distributed via social media and a community health center to participants AFAB aged ≥18 years who had considered but not yet undergone MaPGAS.
