This double-blind randomized clinical trial demonstrates that a bioactive mineral-ionic mouthrinse significantly accelerates soft tissue healing and reduces postoperative pain following tooth extraction compared to conventional chlorhexidine and normal saline.
This study demonstrates that a machine learning-based system utilizing commercially available wrist-worn sensors can achieve over 90% accuracy in the real-time detection of hot flashes under noisy, free-living conditions, thereby enabling objective symptom tracking for improved menopausal management.
This retrospective cohort study of 765 patients at Duke University found that environmental and occupational exposures are prevalent in interstitial lung disease (ILD) patients and are independently associated with a significantly higher risk of disease progression, including a 10% decline in forced vital capacity, lung transplantation, or death.
This case report demonstrates that a utidelone-containing quadruple regimen (comprising utidelone, carboplatin, nimotuzumab, and zimberelimab) induced a complete response and sustained progression-free survival exceeding 24 months in a taxane-pretreated patient with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma and multiple liver metastases, with a manageable safety profile.
A national analysis from 2013 to 2024 reveals that the allocation of general surgery residency positions across U.S. regions does not systematically scale with population growth, resulting in significant regional disparities in training workforce distribution.
This 25-year follow-up study of Swedish middle-aged automotive workers found that a hypertension threshold of 140/90 mmHg, rather than the lower 130/80 mmHg recommended by the American Heart Association, was a statistically significant predictor of cardiovascular risk, with systolic blood pressure emerging as the more critical prognostic factor compared to diastolic pressure.
This prospective cohort study demonstrates that in patients with acute or subacute spinal cord injury, utilizing clean intermittent catheterization instead of indwelling urethral catheters prior to the initial urodynamic study significantly reduces the risk of post-procedural symptomatic urinary tract infections and improves bladder storage function.
This pilot study demonstrates that a four-week Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) group intervention for inpatients with psychotic disorders is feasible, safe, and well-accepted, yielding significant improvements in symptom severity, global functioning, and recovery that were partially sustained at six-month follow-up.
A nationwide needs assessment survey of Japanese Surgeons as Educators (JSaE) alumni revealed a strong demand for a society-linked refresher course, with participants prioritizing reinforcement of core teaching skills such as performance assessment, feedback techniques, and surgical skills instruction.
This human cadaver MicroCT study reveals that the maxillary aesthetic zone possesses robust interdental cancellous bone with superior quality at the gingival plane compared to the root, suggesting that alveolar reconstruction planning should consider this internal bone structure in addition to the cortical plates.
