Hyperparathyroidism is commonly seen in patients with end-stage renal disease and less commonly in the primary form. The skeletal manifestations of hyperparathyroidism are the same in both forms and are well described in the literature. We treated a patient from each category. Multiple bony lesions and pathologic fractures were observed. The clinical presentations and radiologic and histologic findings confirmed the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism and osteitis fibrosa cystica in both patients. Subtotal excisions of the parathyroid glands were done in both patients. Appropriate treatment of the bony lesions and pathologic fractures resulted in healing. Histologic evaluation of the bony lesions indicated an osteoblastic or healing response. The reversal of the histologic pattern in just 5 days and 16 days after parathyroidectomy was noted. In treating such patients, physicians should consider parathyroidectomy as an aid in the overall management of patients.

Evaluation of stress patterns in teeth with endodontic treatment and periapical lesions as abutments for fixed prosthesis: a finite element analysis study.
BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Department of Agr. Machinery and Technology Engineering, Akdeniz University, Antalya, Turkey.
Background: Examining stress distributions in abutment teeth with periapical lesions is essential for understanding their biomechanical impact on dental structures and tissues. This study uses finite element analysis (FEA) to evaluate these stress patterns under occlusal forces, aiming to enhance treatment strategies and prosthetic designs.
Methods: Three FEA models were created: a healthy mandibular premolar (Model 1), a premolar with a single crown and a lesion repaired using a fiber-post (Model 2), and 3) a premolar with a lesion repaired using fiber-post to support a four-member bridge (Model 3).
Return-to-sports after conservative treatment of ligamentous elbow dislocations: a monocentric retrospective cohort study. European journal of trauma and emergency surgery.
Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg

Department of Orthopedic, Trauma and Plastic Surgery, University Hospital of Cologne, Kerpener Str. 62, 50937, Cologne, Germany.
Purpose: Ligamentous elbow dislocations often affect young patients with high functional and athletic demands. After reduction and clinical examination of joint stability, further treatment options are, therefore, the subject of controversial debate. In order to be able to advise patients adequately, an assessment of the possible return-to-sport based on experience is necessary.

Background: Adjacent bony structures may directly rub the carotid artery during swallowing or head and/neck movement. Long-term repeated stimulation might be considered to be a potential risk factor for carotid atherosclerotic plaque formation, development, and hazard. we defined the process as "Osteal Kneading".

Biomimetics (Basel)
January 2025
Nuclear Cardiology Unit and CCT Service, Meir Medical Center, Kfar-Saba 95847, Israel.
Numerous efforts have been invested in previous algorithms to expose and enhance blood vessel (BV) visibility derived from clinical coronary angiography (CAG) procedures, such as noise reduction, segmentation, and background subtraction. Yet, the visibility of the BVs and their luminal content, particularly the small ones, is still limited. We propose a novel visibility enhancement algorithm, whose main body is inspired by a line completion mechanism of the visual system, i.

Faculty of Dentistry, Ain Shams University, Organization of African Unity Street, Cairo, Egypt, 11766.
As photobiomodulation is growing in the dental field the aim of this prospective, two-arm clinical trial was to assess the radiographic changes for chronic periapical bone lesions related to mandibular molars after primary root canal therapy with or without applying Diode laser on soft tissue. The samples were randomly divided into a Laser group and a mock laser (ML) group. Preoperative CBCT images were compared 12 months later with postoperative CBCT to gauge the changes in the volume of the bony lesion by two observers.
