The Stability

“Osseointegration” as formulated by Alberktson is crucial for implant survival and success. Osseointegration is a measure of implant stability. Measuring implant stability helps to arrive at decisions as to loading of an implant, allows choice of protocol on a patient to patient basis and provides better case documentation. A successful implant reflects good bone to implant contact and is determined by implant stability both primary and secondary. Implant stability is achieved at two different stages – primary (immediately after implant placement) and secondary (3-4 months after implant placement). Implant stability has been confirmed to affect the process of osseointegration and therefore is essential to understand the methods to measure implant stability and factors influencing. Various methods are developed to assess implant stability which suggests the prognosis of an implant.

Background: Nevus spilus is a rare, acquired, and often large cutaneous lesion consisting of a light brown background macule containing varying numbers of small darker macular or papular areas. Objective: Nevus spilus may contain dysplastic melanocytic elements, and there are also reports of melanoma arising from nevus spilus. However, the absolute risk for malignant transformation is not well defined. Conclusion: We discuss a case of synchronous melanomas arising from a nevus spilus and potential management recommendations based on a review of the pertinent literature.

Patch Closure

Patch closure after carotid endarterectomy lowers risk of recurrent stenosis and perioperative neurologic events. Although vein patches have theoretic benefits, few differences between vein and nonautologous patches have been noted. Bovine pericardium has been increasingly used in carotid surgery over the last 15 years, with favorable reports. This study reviews a large carotid surgery series using this patch. Data were gathered on 464 consecutive carotid operations using the bovine pericardium patch; all complications were analyzed and pertinent literature review was performed. Of 464 procedures, 218 (47%) were performed for symptomatic disease. Total peri-operative ipsilateral stroke rate was 0.65 per cent. A low rate of postoperative bleeding was noted. Recurrence of >70 per cent stenosis was 1.6 per cent at follow-up of 26 months in 410 patients. Handling was subjectively described as excellent. Literature review comprising 3239 carotid operations revealed low risks of stroke, bleeding requiring intervention, or high rates of recurrent stenosis. Bovine pericardium patch angioplasty has low perioperative and late complications and good handling characteristics, making it an acceptable choice for use in carotid surgery.

The Creation

Knowledge is considered a major asset for companies competing in today’s knowledge-based economy. Management and retention of this knowledge is a critical task in keeping companies ahead of the game. This article will focus on one component of knowledge management, that is, the creation of a successful knowledge transfer process by using an integrative literature review method (Torracco, 2005). An integrative literature review is a form of research where the pertinent literature on a topic was systematically reviewed, analyzed, and synthesized in hopes of reaching a new and better understanding of the topic. Multiple databases were used in gathering literature for this article. Common themes that serve as findings of the study were through the processes of independent analysis of each researcher and joint discussion of the two researchers of the study. In the following sections, background information and definitions concerning knowledge transfer are presented followed by the identified themes. Finally, pertinent discussions regarding trends of knowledge transfer are discussed.
