Clinical and radiographic performance of self-locking conical connection implants in the posterior mandible: Five-year results of a two-centre prospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This prospective study aims to assess the 5-year clinical performance of implants with internal conical connection and platform-switched abutments in the posterior mandible.

Material and methods

Healthy adults missing at least two teeth in the posterior mandible and with a natural tooth mesial to the implant site received two or three adjacent implants. After a transmucosal healing period single crown restorations were cemented on platform-switched abutments. Changes in marginal bone levels were investigated in standardized periapical radiographs from surgery and loading (baseline) to 60-months post-loading.

Results

Twenty-four patients received 52 implants. Bone remodelling took place between surgery and loading (mean:-0.5, SD:±0.4 mm). From loading to 60 months, there was a mean bone change of 0.27 (SD:±0.47 mm) which stabilized 24 months after prosthesis delivery (mean:0.2, SD:±0.46 mm). 71.7% of all implants presented bone preservation at 60 months irrespective of the initial insertion depth. Two implants were lost after 5 years and the success rate was 95.1%. Patient enquiry revealed high satisfaction.

Conclusion

Internal conical connection implants with platform-switched abutments presented a high success rate and preservation of marginal bone levels at the implant shoulder after 5 years of loading.

An open prospective single cohort multicenter study evaluating the novel, tapered, conical connection implants supporting single crowns in the anterior and premolar maxilla: interim 1-year results.

Project description:The aim of this multicenter prospective clinical study was to evaluate anodized tapered implants with a conical connection and integrated platform shifting placed in the anterior and premolar maxilla.The study enrolled patients requiring single-tooth restorations in healed sites of maxillary anterior and premolar teeth. All implants were immediately temporized. Clinical and radiographic evaluations were conducted at implant insertion, 6 months, and 1 year. Outcome measures included bone remodeling, cumulative survival rate (CSR), success rate, soft-tissue health and esthetics, and patient satisfaction. Bone remodeling and pink esthetic score were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests. CSR was calculated using life table analysis. Other soft-tissue outcomes were analyzed using sign tests.Out of 97 enrolled patients (102 implants), 87 patients (91 implants) completed the 1-year visit. Marginal bone remodeling was -0.85 ± 1.36 mm. After the expected initial bone loss, a mean bone gain of 0.11 ± 1.05 mm was observed between 6 months and 1 year. The CSR was 99.0%, and the cumulative success rate was 97.0%. Partial or full papilla was observed at 30.8% of sites at baseline, 87.2% at 6 months, and 90.5% at 1 year. Soft-tissue response, esthetics, and patient satisfaction all improved during the study period.Bone gain was observed following the expected initial bone loss, and soft-tissue outcomes improved suggesting favorable tissue response using anodized tapered conical connection implants.Rapid stabilization of bone remodeling and robust papilla regeneration indicate favorable tissue healing promoted by the conical connection, platform-shift design.clinicaltrials.gov NCT02175550.

Five-Year Retrospective Analysis of Eurosilicone's Silicone Gel-Filled Breast Implants.

Project description:BackgroundSilicone breast implants have been widely used for breast augmentation and reconstruction. During this time, silicone breast implants have undergone several modifications to improve their safety, quality, and clinical performance. Complications such as reoperation, capsular contracture, and rupture are risks often associated with breast implants.ObjectivesThe authors conducted a retrospective study to analyze and report complication rates associated with Eurosilicone's (Eurosilicone S.A.S, Apt, Cedex, France) silicone gel-filled breast implants over a period of 5 years.MethodsIn this retrospective clinical study, 2151 women who underwent either breast augmentation or breast reconstruction with Eurosilicone breast implants were diagnosed. Data on early and late complications including implant removal (explantation/exchange), capsular contracture, and rupture were collected using questionnaires, completed by 39 surgeons across Italy.ResultsOf the 2151, only 60 patients (2.78%) required implant removal. Twenty-five patients experienced capsular contracture (Baker Grade III/IV), giving an actual rate of 1.2%. The actual rate of implant rupture confirmed by breast magnetic resonance images was 0.18% (4 implants). Six patients (0.27%) were diagnosed with breast cancer following breast augmentation, and local complications including hematoma (1 patient) and seroma (2 patients) were experienced.ConclusionsThis retrospective clinical study involving Eurosilicone's round and anatomical textured silicone gel-filled mammary implants demonstrates an excellent safety profile through 5 years.Level of Evidence: 2.

Effect of platform switching on crestal bone levels around implants in the posterior mandible: 3 years results from a multicentre randomized clinical trial.

Project description:ObjectiveEvaluation of differences in the clinical performance and crestal bone levels between implants restored with single crowns with platform-matched or platform-switched abutments after 3 years.Material and methodsThe study enrolled adult patients missing two or more adjacent teeth in the posterior mandible with natural teeth mesial to the implant site. Randomization followed open-flap implant insertion and the corresponding matching or switching healing abutments placed at surgery. Conventional loading was made with cemented crowns. Clinical follow-up took place annually after loading up to 3 years. Bone level changes were measured in standardized radiographs as the variation in crestal bone from one evaluation to the next.ResultsSixty-three patients with a total of 135 implants (66 platform matching, 69 platform switching) were analysed. From surgery to 36 months, mean bone loss was 0.28 ± 0.56 mm for the platform-switching group and 0.68 ± 0.64 mm for the platform-matching group. A statistically significant difference was found between groups (p = 0.002) with an estimate of 0.39 mm (0.15-0.64, 95% CI) in favour of platform switching.ConclusionsAfter 3 years, platform-switching restorations showed a significant effect in the preservation of marginal bone levels compared to platform-matching restorations.

Spinal Radiographic Progression in Early Axial Spondyloarthritis: Five-Year Results From the DESIR Cohort.

Project description:ObjectiveTo analyze the progression of spinal radiographic damage in patients with early axial spondyloarthritis (SpA).MethodsAxial SpA patients from the DESIR (Devenir des Spondylarthropathies Indifférenciées Récentes) cohort with 5-year spinal (cervical and lumbar) radiographs available (n = 549) were included. Two- and 5-year modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spine Score (mSASSS) progression and development of new syndesmophytes (net change: the number of patients with positive change minus the number of patients with negative change divided by the total number of patients) were assessed in subgroups defined at baseline according to the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society axial SpA criteria and its arms, modified New York criteria (mNYC) and the presence of syndesmophytes.ResultsMean ± SD mSASSS progression was 0.2 ± 0.9 at 2 years and 0.4 ± 1.8 at 5 years. Five-year progression was higher in the imaging arm (mean ± SD 0.6 ± 2.3), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)+/mNYC+ (mean ± SD 1.3 ± 4.0), than in the clinical arm only (mean ± SD 0.1 ± 0.7), and highest in patients with syndesmophytes (mean ± SD 2.7 ± 5.0). At 5 years, 7% of all patients had a net change of any new syndesmophyte; this value was 10% for the imaging arm (mNYC+/MRI+ with 18%), 17% for mNYC+ patients, and 42% for patients with syndesmophytes.ConclusionSpinal radiographic progression, although limited in early axial SpA, can be captured after 2 years. Inflammation and damage in the sacroiliac joint are associated with higher radiographic progression. The presence of baseline syndesmophytes already strongly predicts the development of further structural damage early in the disease.

A Five-Year Comparative Functional and Clinical Evaluation of Two Contemporary Cruciate-Retaining Knee Implants.

Project description:BackgroundThe purpose of our study was to compare 2 commonly used highly successful cruciate-retaining knee designs on the basis of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), range of motion (ROM), and anterior knee pain (AKP) at a minimum follow-up of 5 years.MethodsA cohort of 65 patients underwent unilateral total knee arthroplasty, from January 2013 to December 2013, using NexGen Cruciate Retaining (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN), a nonmorphogenic knee (NMK) system. They were subsequently operated upon for the contralateral knee using Persona Cruciate Retaining (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN), a morphogenic knee (MK) system between January 2014 and June 2014. Of the 65 patients, 63 participated in this study. All the patients were compared preoperatively and postoperatively on the basis of PROMs, ROM, and AKP.ResultsOn the basis of PROMs, ROM, and AKP, there was a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups favoring the MK group, with an ROM of 126.14° in the MK group as compared with 120.76° in the NMK group and P value of <.01.ConclusionsPROMs, ROM, and AKP improved significantly over time after total knee arthroplasty using both MK and NMK implants; however, the outcomes of the former were better than those of the latter, although this difference was not clinically significant.

Five-year-old 'Wink' grape cultivar

Project description:microRNAs(miRNAs) play critical regulatory roles mainly through cleaving targeted mRNAs or repressing gene translation during plant developments. Grapevine is amongst the most economically important fruit crops with whole genome available, and the study on grapevine miRNAs (Vv-miRNAs) have also been emphasized. However, the regulation mode of Vv-miRNAs on their target mRNAs during grapevine development has not been studied well, especially on a transcriptome-wide level. Here, six small RNA (sRNA) and mRNA libraries from various grapevine tissues were constructed for Illumina and Degradome sequencing. Subsequently, the spatiotemporal variation in the Vv-miRNAs’ regulation on their target genes was systematically analyzed. Totally, 242 known and 132 novel Vv-miRNAs were identified, and 193 target mRNAs including 103 for known and 90 for novel miRNAs were validated in one or more of tissues examined. The interesting finding was that over 50% of novel miRNAs were expressed exclusively in flowers or berries where they had tissue-specific cleavage roles on their target genes, especially, the breadth of their cleavage sites in flower tissues. Moreover, six novel miRNAs in berries were found to response to exogenous gibberellin (GA) and/or ethylene by real time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis, confirming their regulatory functions during berry development. Other finding was that about 93.6% of the known miRNAs possessed the high conservation in various tissues where their expression levels exhibited some dynamic variations during grapevine development. Significantly, it was found the phenomena that some Vv-miRNA families exist one key member that act as the main regulator of their target genes during grapevine development.

One-year performance of posterior narrow diameter implants in hyperglycemic and normo-glycemic patients-a pilot study.

Project description:ObjectivesThe aim of the study was to compare the performance of narrow diameter implants in patients with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) and normo-glycemic individuals during the first 12 months after implant loading.Material and methodsIn 16 T2DM patients with HbA1C > 6.5% (test group) and 16 normo-glycemic patients (HbA1C < 6.0%; control group), one to two narrow diameter tissue level implants were placed in the posterior maxilla or mandible. After 3-month lasting integration period, implants were loaded by fixed dentures. The clinical parameters probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BOP), attachment loss (CAL), recession and papilla bleeding index (PBI) were assessed manually at loading and after 12 months of function. The paired digital periapical radiographs were analyzed with regard to the change in marginal bone level (MBL) from baseline to 12 months' control. The mean values calculated for both patient groups were statistically analyzed. The technical complications were recorded.ResultsThe T2DM group accounted 13 patients due to 3 dropouts. The overall implant survival rate after 12 months was 100%. The differences in means for the clinical parameters and the MBL were statistically non-significant between the T2DM and normo-glycemic patients for the short period of loaded function reported here. No technical complications were recorded.ConclusionsThe study demonstrated an encouraging clinical outcome with narrow diameter implants in patients with uncontrolled T2DM compared to non-diabetics after 12 months post loading. For the short observation period, no biological and technical complications were reported regardless the glycemic status.Clinical relevancePatients with HbA1C > 6.5% may benefit from the treatment with narrow diameter implants by avoiding complex surgical interventions with augmentation procedures.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov : NCT04630691.

Primary Stability of Dental Implants in Low-Density (10 and 20 pcf) Polyurethane Foam Blocks: Conical vs Cylindrical Implants.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The aim of the present study was to compare, in low-density polyurethane blocks, the primary implant stability values (micromobility) and removal torque values of three different implant geometries in two different bone densities representing the structure of the human posterior jaws. METHODS:A total of 60 implants were used in the present investigation: twenty implants for each of three groups (group A, group B, and group C), in both polyurethane 10 pcf and 20 pcf densities. The insertion torque, pull-out torque, and implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were obtained. RESULTS:No differences were found in the values of Group A and Group B implants. In both these groups, the insertion torques were quite low in the 10 pcf blocks. Better results were found in the 20 pcf blocks, which showed very good stability of the implants. The pull-out values were slightly lower than the insertion torque values. High ISQ values were found in Group A and B implants. Lower values were present in Group C implants. CONCLUSIONS:The present investigation evaluated implants with different geometries that are available on the market, and not experimental implants specifically created for the study. The authors aimed to simulate real clinical conditions (poor-density bone or immediate post-extraction implants) in which knowledge of dental implant features, which may be useful in increasing the primary stability, may help the oral surgeon during the surgery planning.

The five-year survival rate of breast cancer at Radiation and Isotopes Centre Khartoum, Sudan.

Project description:BackgroundThe Radiation and Isotopes Centre Khartoum (RICK) is the largest public cancer centre in Sudan. The most common cancer in Sudan (and RICK) is breast cancer. The study aims to determine the five year survival of breast cancer as well as factors influencing this survivorship.MethodsThis retrospective facility-based study was conducted on patients diagnosed as having breast cancer at RICK during the year 2013. At 305 patients, the population under study was totally covered. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 23. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate survival, and to further plot it against specific variables.ResultsThe five-year survival was found to be 79%. Lymph nodes were involved in 70.5% of the cases. The mean time between patients' first discovery of symptoms and diagnosis at RICK was 13.03 months. Presence of comorbid diabetes and hypertension significantly increased breast cancer mortality.ConclusionsBreast cancer in Sudan is characterized by younger age, delayed diagnosis and advanced staging at presentation, as well as lower five-year breast cancer survival in comparison to developed countries.
