To study the application effect of rapid rehabilitation nursing intervention in thoracic surgery nursing, this paper researches controlled trials. First, this paper sets up a control group and a test group. The control group uses traditional nursing methods for thoracic surgical nursing intervention, and the test group adds rapid rehabilitation nursing intervention based on traditional nursing intervention. In addition, the operation and rehabilitation conditions of the control group and the test group are the same. Moreover, this paper records rehabilitation information in real time, performs data processing through statistical methods, and conducts follow-up surveys on the rehabilitation process of patients. In addition, this paper compares nursing effects through data comparison and histogram comparison. From the research results, various parameters of the patient’s recovery process and the user satisfaction of the rapid rehabilitation can be seen. Furthermore, nursing is higher than those of the control group, which shows that the rapid rehabilitation nursing method can positively affect the nursing of thoracic surgery.

In order to explore the effectiveness of the 5Why-based nursing intervention method in blood purification nursing, this paper takes 108 patients from Changzhou Second Hospital in the past three years as an example for experimental analysis. Moreover, this paper uses mathematical statistics to group patients into groups, and the two groups of patients are comparable. After grouping, this paper conducts preexperiment processing and then conducts patient grooming through various basic tasks so that the test results have a certain degree of reliability. On this basis, this paper verifies the nursing intervention methods through controlled trials. Among them, the control group is treated with the hospital’s conventional nursing methods and allowed patients to master self-nursing methods, while the test group is treated with 5Why-based nursing intervention on the basis of traditional nursing methods. Finally, this paper combines mathematical statistics to evaluate the effect of blood purification nursing. From the research results, it can be known that the 5Why-based nursing intervention method has certain effectiveness in blood purification nursing.

Mechanical surface treatment and removal of the above and subgingival biofilm (Tartar ablation; SRP) are considered the most suitable tools for the treatment of periodontal inflammatory diseases, with the aim of destroying bacterial bioflim, reducing bacteria, and slowing down recolonization by pathogenic microorganisms. Often, however, the only S&RP are not enough, as there are patients who are experiencing relapses. Recently, laser therapy has been suggested as a potential tool to improve the outcome of periodontal non-surgical treatment. The objective of the following study was to evaluate the clinical healing of periodontal pockets treated with mechanical therapy, scaling and root planing, and diode laser application, compared to that obtained with non-surgical mechanical therapy alone. The study was designed as a randomized controlled clinical trial. Patients in the control group (13 patients) underwent conventional non-surgical therapy only, while patients in the test group (17 patients) were associated with conventional non-surgical treatment, a laser irradiation session. At baseline and after 6 months, the parameters of probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BOP), gingival recession (REC) were assessed The main variable of this study was the PD (probing depth) FMPS and FMBS at follow-up improved in both groups. The FMPS baseline test group 32.59 ± 6.74 - follow up 12.00 ± 3.16. The baseline of the control group showed 33.00 ± 9.55, the follow up 13.15 ± 4.85 The FMBS baseline test group found 24.29 ± 5.01 while at follow 9.65 ± 2.69. The baseline control group 30.31 ± 7.74, Follow up 11.08 ± 2.33. There is a statistical significance. (P.VALUE 0.0001) There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of PD, CAL and BOP at baseline and at follow-up. PD Test group 4,89±1,58 3,95±0,85 0,0001 Control group 5,02±1,57 4,01±0,86 CAL (mm)Test group 0,89±2,29 0,77±1,91 Control group 0,28±1,38 0,24±1,14 REC Test group 0,19±0,49 0,19±0,51 Control group 0,06±0,29 0,57±029 BOP Test group 51,2% 23,5% Control group 54,0% 20,9% The results showed differences in both baseline and follow-up for REC. Test group 0,19±0,49 0,19±0,51-Control group0,06±0,29 0,57±029 In intra-group analyzes, there are differences between baseline and follow-up for all values, except for REC in the control group. The diode laser can be used as an appropriate device for periodontal treatments, but it can offer additional and significant benefits if used according to appropriate protocols and parameters, and especially if associated with non-surgical, manual and ultrasound periodontal instrumentation, always site-specific , as it is a tool that does not replace traditional methods.

Safety And Efficacy

To evaluate acceptability, safety, and efficacy of a y set with two short branches (TAs) filled with electrolytic chloroxidizer solution during the dwell time, 60 patients were randomly allocated to be treated with the traditional y set (TCs) or with the T AS. Twenty-three were new patients whereas the remaining 37 were patients already on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) with the TCs. The follow-up was 416.5 months in the control group and 387.4 months in the test group. During the study period there were 6 peritonitis episodes in each group with an incidence of 1 episode every 69.4 patient-months in the control group and 1 episode every 64.6 patient-months in the test group. Twenty-four patients (80%) in the control group and 27 (90%) in the test group were free from peritonitis. The probability to remain free from peritonitis was respectively 87% and 83% in the test group and in control group after 12 months, 70% and 78% after 21 months. seventy -nine percent of the patients who used both systems preferred the T AS for better handling, lower encumbrance, and major safety. One patient preferred the TCs, three patients did not find any differences between the two devices.

Category: Bunion Introduction/Purpose: To investigate the significance of using an intraoperative first metatarsal traction test in hallux valgus correction surgery in decision making of the procedure choice and operation designs. Methods: From Jun 2015 to Jun 2016, correction surgery performed in patients with hallux valgus 40 cases with 68 feet. We used the intra-operative first metatarsal traction test to judge the grade of laxity of the 1st TMT and the factual IMA and thus help to make the decision of the level of osteotomy and or fusion. We adopted distal Chevon osteotomy (11 cases 16.2%) when the congruence of the surface of the 1st MPJ remains more than ½ under tension with the traction test. Proximal Scarf osteotomy (54 cases 79.4%) was used when the congruence was less than ½. While if there was a complete incongruent dislocation, Lapidus procedure (3 cases 4.4%) was carried out. We measured IMA and HVA in the patients preoperative, intraoperative, 3 days after operation and at 6 months’ follow-up. Same measurements were done on the 40 patients from the same time without traction test Results: Retrospective review of the 2 groups showing significant improvement (p<0.001) but more reliable larger correction of IMA angles in the intraoperative traction test group. The patients of the intraoperative traction test group had average higher satisfaction rate with more reliable improvement of symptoms and less postoperative complications. Significant improvement (P<0.001) and postoperative AOFAS score average of 93.2 was recorded in traction test method group vs. a 84.3 in control group. The traction test group largely retained the correction in half year follow up which is significant when comparing to the control Conclusion: The intraoperative traction test of first metatarsal objectively guided the decision making of procedure choice and operation design optimization. The traction test gave a reliable assessment of the laxity of first TMT thus avoiding inadequate correction of Hallux Valgus with improper surgical designs. The test can be potentially used as an objective intraoperative guidance in avoidance of inadequate correction with inappropriate surgical choices and thus maintain the correction in the long term with patient satisfaction

Introduction Patients are more demanding of short or less invasive interventions. Piezocision responds well to this demand, particularly in the case of piezo-guided corticotomy to accelerate orthodontic movements. Different surgical approaches are described to shorten orthodontic procedures. Corticotomy is a surgical process where osteotomies are realized at the level of the cortical part of the bone. Objective The aim of this work is to review the contribution of piezocision in oral surgery, using as example a review over the current results of piezocision on the acceleration of orthodontic movements. Data sources The articles referenced and used in this article come from the PubMed database. The searched keywords were "piezocision" alone or in combination with "orthodontics". Study selection This search resulted in 44 available articles. Subsequently, 6 randomized controlled trials were selected based on relevance, journal, and publication date. Four Randomized Controlled Trials and two Controlled Clinical Trials were studied. Data extraction The reviewer assessed each article for their relevance and methodology. The 6 studies compared the time savings between conventional orthodontic treatment (control group) and orthodontic treatment combined with piezocision surgery (test group). Data synthesis Piezocision corticotomy reduces the operation and the postoperative period and increases the acceptance of corticotomies and their indications.

Background: Neurofeedback using real-time functional MRI (RT-fMRI-NF) is an innovative technique that allows to voluntarily modulating a targeted brain response and its associated behavior. Despite promising results in the current literature, its effectiveness on symptoms’ management in psychiatric disorders is not yet clearly demonstrated. This review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of RT-fMRI-NF in the treatment of psychiatric disorders and to provide methodological suggestions for future studies. Methods: Web of Science and PubMed databases were searched using the keywords: neurofeedback AND (fMRI OR “functional magnetic resonance imag*” OR “functional MRI”) AND (“real-time” OR “real time”). Twenty-six clinical trials focusing on psychiatric disorders were included and categorized according to the diagnostic categories. The RT-fMRI-NF efficacy was assessed by reporting changes in clinical endpoints before vs. after NF training and before or after NF training vs. follow-up. Results: Among the 26 studies, 18 were controlled trials, of which five showed significant clinical improvement in the experimental vs. control group after the training. Eight studies found an effect at follow-up on ADHD symptoms, emotion dysregulation, depressive symptoms, hallucinations, psychotic symptoms and specific fear. Limitations: Here, we only focused our review on fMRI-based NF training. Conclusion: The use of RT-fMRI-NF as a treatment for psychiatric symptoms is promising. However, further double blind, randomized-controlled trials are warranted.

Abstract Background: Dentine hypersensitivity (DH) could occur or intensify after non-surgical periodontal therapy because of the exposure of dentine tubules. It has been demonstrated that nano-sized particles could seal these the dentine tubules. This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the efficacy of dentifrice containing nano-carbonate apatite (n-CAP) in reducing dentine hypersensitivity (DH) after non-surgical periodontal therapy. Methods: 48 periodontitis patients with DH were included in this clinical trial. After non-surgical periodontal therapy, patients included were randomized to test and control group and the respective dentifrices were applied at chairside, after which they were instructed to brush teeth with the allocated dentifrices twice a day at home. Periodontal parameters were recorded at baseline and the last follow-up. DH was measured by air-blast test and recorded by visual analogue scale (VAS) and Schiff sensitivity scale at baseline, after polishing (0 week) and 2/4/6 weeks. Results: 45 participants completed the follow-up. Periodontal parameters were improved and comparable between groups. Significant reduction in DH was observed in both groups at all time-points compared to baseline in terms of VAS and Schiff score. The test group achieved significantly greater relief from hypersensitivity compared with the control group after 4-week at-home use (for VAS, test group: 0.66 ± 0.68 versus control group: 0.84 ± 0.78, p = 0.005; for Schiff score, test group: 0.69 ± 0.71 versus control group: 0.97 ± 0.77, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Home-use of n-CAP based dentifrice provided a significantly better alleviation of DH following non-surgical periodontal therapy after 4 weeks compared to the control product.

Objectives: Repeated abutment disconnection/reconnection may compromise the mucosal barrier and result in crestal bone level changes. The clinical significance of this phenomenon is not yet clear, as most studies on this topic are short-term. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of abutment disconnections and reconnections on peri-implant marginal bone loss over a medium-term follow-up period. Material and methods: Twenty-one patients (6 men and 15 women) with a mean age 66.23 ± 9.35 year at the time of implant placement were included. All patients who received two adjacent nonsubmerged implants were randomly assigned into one of the two groups: definitive multiunit abutments (DEFs) connected to the implant that were not removed (test group) or healing abutments (HEAs) placed at surgery, which were disconnected and reconnected 3–5 times during the prosthetic phase (control group). Peri-implant marginal bone levels (MBL) were measured through periapical X-rays images acquired immediately after the surgery (baseline), at 4–7 months immediately after prosthetic delivery, and at 1-year and 3-year follow-up visits. Results: No implant was lost or presented bone loss of more than 1.9 mm during the 3-year follow-up; thus, the survival and success rate was 100%. Peri-implant mucositis was noticed in 38.1% DEFs and 41.9% of HEAs at the 3-year follow-up assessment. At the end of 3 years, the MBL was −0.35 ± 0.69 mm for participants in the DEFs group and −0.57 ± 0.80 mm for the HEAs group, with significant statistical difference between groups. Conclusions: Immediate connection of the multiunit abutments reduced bone loss in comparison with 3–5 disconnections noted in the healing abutments 3 years after prosthetic delivery. However, the difference between the groups was minimal; thus, the clinical relevance of those results is doubtful.

Objective: To determine the effect on intraocular pressure following primary Trabeculectomy with MMC 0.2% versus Trabeculectomy without MMC in Primary Open Angle Glaucoma. Study Design: This is a prospective and experimental Study. Setting: Study carried out at Ophthalmology Department, Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Medical University Larkana, from 01-03-2020 to 31-08-2020 (06 Months). Materials and Methods: The patients with primary open angle glaucoma were selected from glaucoma clinic after taking careful history and clinical examination. Patients selected for trabeculectomy into two groups. Group A includes 43 patients while Group B also includes 43 patients. Among Group A patients adjunctive MMC 0.2mg/ml for a period of 3 minutes was used during trabeculectomy as a primary procedure (Test Group) while Group B patients were operated without MMC 0.2% (Control Group). Follow-up period of 06 months was observed in both groups. The span of study was from 01-03-2020 to 31-08-2020. Results: The total of 86 Eyes of 86 patients of POAG were included in this study. Group A patients were operated for trabeculectomy with MMC while group B patients were operated for trabeculectomy without MMC. The mean IOP before surgery of Group-A was 25.39±2.42 mmHg while in Group-B it was 26.23±4.23mmHg. At day 1 of surgery in Group-A patients IOP was 13.20±3.05 mmHg while in Group-B patients IOP, was 14.09±4.04 mmHg. After 3 months in Group-A, IOP was 13.04±3.81 mmHg in Group-B IOP was 14.01±4.18 mmHg. Out of 43 patients in Group-A, 41(95.3%) were succeeded while in Group-B, 39(90.7%)were succeeded. Significant result was found for IOP reduction after 6 months of surgeryin group-A IOP was 13.48 + 2.86 mmHg while in group-B, IOP was 15.09 ±2.64 (P=0.754). Conclusion: Trabeculectomy with MMC as a primary procedure seems to be more effective than trabeculectomy without MMC.
