The Impact of Removable and Fixed Retainers and their Individual Differences
•
0 likes•15 views
The document summarizes research on the impact of removable and fixed orthodontic retainers. Researchers reviewed 24 studies on factors like cost-effectiveness, failure rates, and periodontal health. For mandibular stainless steel fixed retainers fused from canine to canine, the mean failure risk was 0.29, while those fused to canines only showed a 0.25 risk. Another study found that while both removable and fixed lower lingual retainers can cause relapse in lower front tooth alignment after treatment, the extent of relapse was not significantly different between the two types. More high-quality research is still needed to fully understand the advantages of different orthodontic retainers.

10 crownvs.compositeforpost retainedrestorations-arandomizedclinicaltrial
This randomized clinical trial compared the survival of composite resin restorations and metal-ceramic crowns on endodontically treated teeth over a follow-up period of 1 to 5 years. 57 restorations were placed in 47 patients, with 30 being composite resin and 27 being metal-ceramic crowns. One tooth was extracted in the composite group due to root fracture. There were 8 failures in the composite group and 1 failure in the crown group, mostly due to secondary caries or restoration fracture. Metal-ceramic crowns demonstrated better clinical performance and lower need for re-intervention, but both types of restorations showed good survival rates with no significant difference.
Randomized Control Trial, research terms 2021
This randomized controlled trial compared the Hall Technique (sealing caries under pre-formed metal crowns without caries removal) to general dental practitioners' standard restorations for managing caries in primary molars. Over 5 years of follow-up, the Hall Technique had significantly lower failure rates than standard restorations. Of 91 patients with minimum 48-month follow-up, 3 had failures of Hall Technique restorations compared to 15 failures of standard restorations. The study concluded that the Hall Technique is a more effective long-term and predictable option for managing caries in primary molars compared to standard restorations.
Non Surgical or Medical Management of Uretric Stone: A Review
This document provides a review of non-surgical medical management options for ureteral stones. It discusses dietary modifications like increasing fluid intake to at least 2 liters per day to help prevent stone recurrence. Medications that increase urinary citrate levels like potassium citrate are also used. Diuretics may help facilitate stone passage by increasing renal fluid output. Herbal formulations are another treatment approach used to prevent stone recurrence. Overall, the review examines the evidence for various lifestyle changes and pharmacological therapies that can help control pain from stones and reduce stone formation without the need for surgery.

Modification of Distal Shoe- A Systematic Review & Meta Analysis
The document summarizes a systematic review of modifications to the distal shoe space maintainer. It analyzes 6 studies on modified distal shoe designs. The studies showed that the modifications provided stability, adjustability, and were well-accepted by patients. However, the quality of the studies was low and conclusions about the efficacy of the modifications were inconclusive due to a lack of clear reporting on outcomes. Further high-quality research is needed to establish the effectiveness of modified distal shoe space maintainers.
Comparative Effects of Chewing Gums in Oral Health: An Original Research
This study assessed the effects of sugar-free chewing gum on oral health by comparing plaque index and DMFT scores between patients who chewed gum daily versus a control group. Forty patients were divided into two groups - one using sugar-free gum for 20 minutes daily and a control group. Plaque index and DMFT scores were assessed monthly for both groups. The gum group showed significantly lower plaque accumulation and fewer caries incidents compared to the control group after two months. However, the benefits decreased after longer use, possibly due to decreased compliance. The study concluded that sugar-free gum can improve oral health when used regularly as an adjunct to brushing and flossing by stimulating saliva and reducing plaque and caries risk.

Pedis 2004
This document proposes a new classification system for diabetic foot ulcers for research purposes. The system, called PEDIS, classifies ulcers according to 5 categories: perfusion, extent/size, depth/tissue loss, infection, and sensation. Each category is assigned a grade based on strict criteria to improve reproducibility and reduce misclassification. The goals of the system are to enable comparison between research studies by standardizing how patient populations are categorized. It is not intended for clinical use or predicting individual outcomes. The document outlines the proposed criteria for grading each category. The system will need to be validated through testing reproducibility and ability to properly categorize patients before being formally adopted.

This study compared the efficacy of fixed versus removable retainers for maintaining orthodontic treatment outcomes over 4 years. 48 participants from an original randomized controlled trial were evaluated. Those with fixed retainers had lower irregularity scores on average (0.85mm increase) compared to removable retainers (1.47mm increase). After adjusting for confounding factors, the difference in irregularity between groups was statistically significant, with removable retainers having 1.64mm more irregularity on average. No other significant differences were found between groups for other metrics like inter-canine width. Compliance with removable retainers decreased over time. Fixed retainers maintained their position better, though some required repair. In conclusion, fixed retainers appeared to

This randomized clinical trial compared the effects of two different force magnitudes (200g vs 400g) for maxillary buccal segment intrusion using mini-screws in patients with skeletal open bites. Twenty-two patients were randomly assigned to receive either 200g or 400g of intrusive force. Both groups experienced statistically significant posterior teeth intrusion and open bite closure, with no significant differences between the groups. The study concluded that 200g and 400g forces produced similar outcomes for maxillary posterior intrusion and open bite correction.

Mandibular arch form the relationship between dental and basal anatomy
We investigated mandibular dental arch form at the levels of both the clinically relevant application points of the orthodontic bracket and the underlying anatomic structure of the apical base. The correlation of both forms was evaluated and examined to determine whether the basal arch could be used to derive a standardized clinical arch form.
An Assessment on the Clinical Performance of Non-carious Cervical Restorations
This study evaluated the clinical performance of non-carious cervical lesion restorations placed at a university dental clinic over a 7-year period. A total of 121 restorations in 34 patients were assessed based on materials used (glass ionomer cement, resin composite, resin-modified glass ionomer cement) and clinical handling technique (with vs without cavity preparation). Glass ionomer cement restorations showed significantly better retention and less secondary caries compared to the other materials, but there were no differences in marginal integrity, discoloration, or anatomic form based on material. The clinical performance did not differ based on whether cavity preparation was used.

A comparative evaluation of masticatory efficiency and satisfaction with diffe...BOHR International Journal of Current research in Dentistry (BIJCRID)
Aims: This study evaluated the subjective experience of masticatory performance and masticatory efficiency in partially edentulous patients rehabilitated with three different types of removable partial dentures (RPDs). Materials and methods: This was a crossover randomized study, which was carried out at the prosthodontics clinic of the University of Ghana Dental School clinic. Sixteen patients requiring RPDs but had never worn one before were consecutively recruited for the study. Three different RPDs [i.e., cobalt chromium, acrylic, and thermoplastic resin (iFlex)] were fabricated for each patient. Masticatory efficiency was assessed using a singlesieve method after chewing raw carrots. The subjective experience of masticatory performance was also assessed using a questionnaire after 1 week of using each denture. Results: The cobalt-chromium denture recorded the highest masticatory efficiency (31.4%), and the iFlex denture recorded the lowest (27.9%). Evidence-Based Practice Project Student ExampleTab.docx

Problem Statement
The development of pneumonia caused by mechanical ventilation is a significant problem in the intensive care units of hospital facilities. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the “most commonly reported healthcare-acquired infection” in patients requiring mechanical ventilation support (Garcia et al., 2009, p. 524). One of the most common reasons for an ICU admission is related to respiratory distress or failure. VAP is described as a form of nosocomial infection which occurs after the first 48 hours of receiving mechanical ventilation (Augustyn, 2007). The length of stay (LOS) for patients developing VAP is higher than those never requiring mechanical ventilation by an increase of approximately six days (Garcia et al. 2009). In intensive care units (ICUs) across the United States (US), ventilator-acquired pneumonia also results in prolonged periods of actual mechanical ventilation, the excess use of antimicrobial products, increased utilization of healthcare resources and costs, and significant increase in morbidity and mortality (Coffin et al., 2008). Garcia et al. (2009) found on average, estimated costs of an additional $11, 897 to $150,841 per individual case were spent. VAP has a significant economic impact on our society, costing hospitals money which potentially could have been saved.
Numerous risks factors contribute to the development of ventilator-acquired pneumonia as mechanical ventilation presents a unique set of challenges for the patient requiring intubation and ventilator support. Rigorous clinical studies show oral secretions pose an increased risk for developing VAP (Augustyn, 2007). Treatments, strategies and evidence-based interventions have been developed to decrease the risks and reduce the prevalence of VAP. There is evidence indicating the use of oral chlorhexidine and the removal of ora ...

This study compared the effectiveness of Hawley retainers and two protocols for vacuum-formed retainers (VFRs) in maintaining orthodontic treatment results. 90 patients were randomly assigned to receive either a Hawley retainer, VFRs worn for 4 months full-time then nightly, or VFRs worn for 1 week full-time then nightly. Models at debond and 4 and 8 months post-treatment showed the Hawley group had significantly greater loss of upper arch length and increased crowding compared to the VFR groups, though lower arch measurements were similar. Both VFR protocols were more effective than Hawleys in maintaining the upper arch, and 4 months full-time wear provided better lower incis

The document summarizes a journal club presentation on a 3-year study evaluating the clinical performance of short expandable dental implants in highly atrophic alveolar bone. The study found a 94.7% implant success rate in the mandible and 83.6% in the maxilla over a mean follow-up of 42.6 months, with median 3-year crestal bone changes demonstrating maintenance of peri-implant alveolar bone. The conclusion was that the short expandable implant system provided reliable oral rehabilitation, especially for elderly patients with difficult implantation conditions.
Biol width on impl review
This review analyzes the current evidence on the biologic width around dental implants. The review summarizes 75 studies on this topic, including 2 clinical studies, 8 human histology studies, and 44 animal studies. The key findings are:
- Evidence from animal studies shows that the biologic width around implants consists of sulcular and junctional epithelium and an underlying connective tissue zone, similar to natural teeth.
- Human histology studies found the total height of peri-implant tissues to be 4-4.5mm, with the peri-implant sulcus ranging from 0.2-0.5mm and junctional epithelium limited to 1.4-2.9mm.

Caracteristicas del hawley
This study compared the effectiveness of Hawley retainers and two protocols for vacuum-formed retainers (VFRs) in maintaining orthodontic treatment results. 90 patients were randomly assigned to receive either a Hawley retainer, VFRs worn for 4 months full-time then nightly, or VFRs worn for 1 week full-time then nightly. Models at debond and 4 and 8 months post-treatment showed the Hawley group had significantly greater loss of upper arch length and increased crowding compared to the VFR groups, though lower arch measurements were similar. Both VFR protocols were more effective than Hawleys in maintaining the upper arch, and 4 months full-time wear provided better lower incis
Akhil jc expandable
The document summarizes a journal club presentation on a 3-year study evaluating the clinical performance of short expandable dental implants in highly atrophic alveolar bone. The study found a 94.7% implant success rate in the mandible and 83.6% in the maxilla over a mean follow-up of 42.6 months, with median 3-year crestal bone changes demonstrating maintenance of peri-implant alveolar bone. The conclusion was that the short expandable implant system provided reliable oral rehabilitation, especially for elderly patients with difficult implantation conditions.
Biol width on impl review
This review analyzes the current evidence on the biologic width around dental implants. The review summarizes 75 studies on this topic, including 2 clinical studies, 8 human histology studies, and 44 animal studies. The key findings are:
- Evidence from animal studies shows that the biologic width around implants consists of sulcular and junctional epithelium and an underlying connective tissue zone, similar to natural teeth.
- Human histology studies found the total height of peri-implant tissues to be 4-4.5mm, with the peri-implant sulcus ranging from 0.2-0.5mm and junctional epithelium limited to 1.4-2.9mm.

varicocele
Varicocele repair improves pregnancy rates in men with clinical varicoceles and abnormal semen quality. A meta-analysis of 7 randomized clinical trials found surgical varicocele repair significantly increased pregnancy rates compared to observation alone for men with clinical varicoceles and abnormal semen. The analysis showed no significant difference in pregnancy rates between repair and observation for studies that included men with subclinical varicoceles or normal semen quality. Surgical repair may be an effective first-line treatment for infertility in men with clinical varicoceles and abnormal semen parameters.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.June 2024 Oncology Cartoons By Dr Kanhu Charan Patro

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

June 14, 2024Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

The Impact of Removable and Fixed Retainers and their Individual Differences
- 1. Orthodenco Orthodontic Lab The Impact of Removable and Fixed Retainers and their Individual Differences
- 2. The typical approval for indefinite retention makes it essential to figure out the impact of removable and fixed orthodontic retainers on various factors. Such factors include cost-effectiveness, failure and survival rates of retainers and periodontal health. The study conducted by Dalya Al-Moghrabi aimed to determine the effect of these retainers on the results patients described. A Methodical Analysis The researchers commenced a thorough literature search reliant on a distinct gray and electronic literature search strategy. They examined several catalogs, including the ProQuest Dissertation Thesis database, LILACS and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. They even searched through the National Research Register, MEDLINE via OVID, BBO, PubMed, andClinicalTrials.gov. They ended up identifying 24 studies, six potential cohort studies, and 18 randomized control trials, but only considered 16 of these as high-quality. Due to dissimilarities in result methods and significant clinical heterogeneity, the meta-analysis was unrealistic. For mandibular stainless steel fixed retainers that were fused from canine to canine, the mean failure risk was 0.29. Meanwhile, those fused to canines only showed 0.25 mean failure risk.
- 3. A meta-regression revealed that the time passed from placement do not directly associate to the failure of fixed stainless steel mandibular retainers. The Differences between Fixed and Removable Another study wanted to determine if bonded multistrand, lower lingual, canine to canine retainers could stop the setback of lower labial segment alignment after fixed appliance therapy. Nikki Atack and her team wanted to match this to the lower Hawley-type removable retainers. They grouped 29 patients into two and discovered that relapse could happen in the lower labial segment for both removable and fixed retainers. The extent of relapse observed with these two kinds of retainer is not considerably dissimilar, statistically. Thus, there is still a need for more well-designed potential studies to explain the advantages connected to orthodontic retainers.
