Failure of rotator cuff healing is a common complication despite the rapid development surgical repair techniques for torn cuff.To verify effect atelocollagen on tendon-to-bone in rabbit supraspinatus tendon compared with conventional repair.Controlled laboratory study.A tear was created and repaired 46 New Zealand White rabbits. They were then randomly allocated into 2 groups (23 rabbits per group; 15 histological 8 biomechanical test). In experimental group, patch-type implanted between...
Many reports have been published on orthognathic surgery (OGS) using computer-aided surgical simulation (CASS). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy maxillary repositioning and stability maxilla in patients who underwent OGS a newly developed CASS program, customized osteotomy guide, miniplate. Thirteen from 2015 2017 were included. All bimaxillary operation. First, skull-dentition hybrid 3D image rendered by merging cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images with...
Background/Objectives: Catheter ablation is an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) but associated with femoral vascular complications. While anticoagulation therapy has been linked to these complications, specific risk factors remain unclear. This study assessed the incidence and predictors of complications after catheter using systematic duplex ultrasound (DUS) as well their outcomes. Methods: A single-center observational was conducted 404 consecutive AF patients who underwent...
Condylar repositioning using centric relation bite in bimaxillary surgeryObjective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate displacement the mandibular condyle after orthognathic surgery a condylar-repositioning device.Methods: patient group comprised 20 adults who underwent between August 2008 and July 2011.The degree condylar measured by pre-and postoperative tomographic analysis wire during surgery.A sur vey assessing temporomandibular joint (TMJ) sound, pain, locking performed.The...
The advantages of intraoral model scanning have yielded recent developments. However, few studies explored the orthodontic clinical use this technique particularly among young patients. This study aimed to evaluate reliability, reproducibility and validity measurements: tooth width, arch length discrepancy in each digital obtained by scanner scanner, relative a plaster model. Arch measured using two methods: curved (CAL) automatically program sum sectional liner (SLAL) anterior posterior...
Background: Favourable occlusal interdigitation and an optimized position of the mandibular condyle after surgery are essential for obtaining favourable results. The is determined during operation. However, it difficult to maintain condyle's original post-surgery despite efforts surgeons. Indeed, a degree rotation unavoidable, since verify whether positioned correctly surgery. Purpose: To maximize contact between bone segments, was rotated around vertical axis using surgical simulations. We...
: Limited data are available regarding the prognostic impact of premature ventricular complex (PVC) burden in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We sought to compare clinical outcomes AF according PVC via 24 h Holter monitoring.
We evaluated the effectiveness of genotype- and phenotype-directed individualization P2Y12 inhibitors to decrease high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HOPR).Sixty-five patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for non-ST elevation acute syndromes were randomly assigned or treatment. All screened CYP2C19(*)2, (*)3, (*)17 alleles by using Verigene CLO assay (Nanosphere, Northbrook, IL, USA). The reaction unit (PRU) was measured VerifyNow (Accumetrics, San Diego, CA, 21 CYP2C19...
Purpose Changes in the condylar position after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSO) can cause many complications, such as dysfunction and increased risk of relapse. This study evaluated a simple approach for repositioning BSSO method to rapidly obtain patient’s centric relation (CR) bite without prefabricated equipment. Methods The subjects included 9 patients (5 men 4 women; mean age, 23.7 years) who underwent Department Oral Maxillofacial Surgery Hallym University hospital...
Objective: The development of digital dentistry has contributed to the astonishing advancement implant dentistry. Furthermore, technology is expected be applied extensively sinus augmentation, which an advanced technique for surgery. This study introduces a simple method safer and more precise lateral window opening augmentation using navigation program. Methods: Five eligible patients with residual alveolar bone 4 mm or less are presented, requiring approach augmentation. Navigation system...
The objective of this retrospective study was to show results from platform-switched narrow-diameter implants in the posterior edentulous region, which we followed up for more than 1 year after functional loading.Ninety-eight narrow were inserted into 66 patients. After healing, fixed implant-supported prostheses delivered patients, and Periotest radiographic examinations performed. first loading, implant outcome again evaluated clinically radiographically using analysis. Crestal bone loss...
This study was designed to assess the clinical outcomes and surgical convenience of a newly Yang's Keyhole plate (YK plate) system for treatment subcondyle angle fractures mandible. To evaluate system's convenience, chart review simulation using mandible replica model were performed.The YK system, which is slightly modified sliding plate, has 0.8-mm thick titanium widened hole in anterior region permit screw head be inserted. The results developed existing 4-hole miniplate fixation technique...
A 4-year-old intact female Pekingese dog was presented with ataxia and seizure episodes. Based on magnetic resonance imaging cerebrospinal fluid analysis results, meningoencephalitis of unknown etiology suspected. The present case survived for 1,096 days under cyclosporine plus prednisolone therapy definitively diagnosed necrotizing meningoencephalitis. This report describes the clinical findings, serial characteristics pathologic features a long-term survival after therapy.
Orthognathic surgery (OGS) is a relatively common procedure for solving functional and aesthetic problems in facial jaw areas patients with dentofacial deformities. The positioning of the mandibular condylar segment during OGS has an impact on surgical outcome. This study aimed to investigate changes condyle-fossa relationship three dimensionally after using centric relation (CR) bite ramal reference line (RRL).Thirty-two skeletal malocclusion underwent OGS. Condylar repositioning was...
A 2-month-old intact female Miniature Pinscher puppy presented with footpad swelling and crusted pustules of ear pinnae. The dog had been vaccinated a polyvalent canine vaccine 5 days prior to the onset clinical signs. With history recent vaccination, presentation histopathological observations were suggestive ischemic dermatopathy. Treatment involved oral prednisolone, azathioprine, other immune modulating drugs, which did not work. Chlorambucil plus cyclosporine therapy was initiated for...
Abstract Collagen triple helix repeat containing-1 (CTHRC1) is a secreted protein that contributes to the progression of various cancers, including pancreatic cancer. The higher expression CTHRC1 in tumor tissues associated with poorer survival outcomes. However, its specific roles extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling remain unclear. Our study aims investigate influences on stellate cells (PSCs), main source ECM production analyses publicly available cancer patient data revealed mainly...
Electrical cardioversion (ECV) a widely utilized intervention for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) aimed at restoring sinus rhythm. However, ECV can be ineffective, raising questions about subsequent treatment options. This study to compare the outcomes of non-ablation therapy versus ablation following unsuccessful ECV. A total 125 consecutive patients with AF who underwent between November 2017 and August 2023 was included in this retrospective analysis. Of these, 51.2% received only...
