This case report compares the results of placement of HTR (Hard Tissue Replacement Synthetic Bone) and freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA) in the same patient. 2 notches were made in each of 6 teeth, 1 at the gingival margin and the other at the most apical level of calculus. Soft tissue responses with both materials included probing depth reduction, gingival shrinkage and gain in clinical attachment. Histological sections of block extraction sites 30 months after placement of either material showed no signs of new attachment. Little or no inflammation was present with both materials. There was also an absence of all FDBA particles which assumes complete resorption of this material prior to 30 months. Gingival shrinkage resulted in the exposure of the gingival and calculus notch in all FDBA treated sites. Gingival epithelium was found adjacent to the gingival notch in all HTR treated sites. The calculus notch in HTR treated sites was lined by junctional epithelium with connective tissue and bone opposing the adhesion. HTR particles were present and surrounded by connective tissue or bone. HTR appears to serve as a scaffold for new bone formation when in close contact with alveolar bone.

Purpose: In this retrospective study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and incidence of radiation-induced brain necrosis (RBN) after volumetric modulated arc therapy-based stereotactic irradiation (VMAT-STI) for brain metastases.
Methods: In the 220 brain metastatic lesions included between January 2020 and June 2022, there were 1-9 concurrently treated lesions (median 1). A biologically effective dose (BED)10 of 80 Gy and a reduced BED10 of 50 Gy were prescribed to the gross tumor volume (GTV) and planning target volume (PTV) (PTV = GTV + 3 mm) margins, respectively.

Purpose: (1) To evaluate the incidence and combination types of concomitant malleolar and fibular fractures in patients with distal spiral tibial shaft fractures. (2) To evaluate the risk factors for concomitant malleolar fractures in patients with distal spiral tibial shaft fractures.
Methods: A retrospective review was performed on 64 cases of surgically treated distal spiral tibial shaft fractures with complete radiographs and computed tomography (CT) scans.

In recent years, it has become widely acknowledged that heavy metals are often present in oil-contaminated sites. This study utilized three specific types of microorganisms with different functions to construct a composite bacterial consortium for treating lubricant-Cr(VI) composite pollutants. The selected strains were Lysinbacillus fusiformis and Bacillus tropicus.

As an enzyme that plays an important role in DNA repair, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) has become a popular target for cancer therapy. Nuclear medicine molecular imaging technology, supplemented by radiolabeled PARP-1 inhibitors, can accurately determine the expression level of PARP-1 at lesion sites to help patients choose an appropriate treatment plan. In this work, niraparib was modified with a hydrazinonicotinamide (HYNIC) group to generate the ligand NPBHYNIC, which has an affinity (IC) of 450.

Objectives: To evaluate the features and frequency of hepatobiliary diseases in individuals with Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Methods: This retrospective study included all IBD patients at King Abdulaziz University Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The primary focus was on the prevalence of hepatobiliary diseases, such as primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), and others.
