Bone Metabolism and Dental Implant Insertion as a Correlation Affecting on Marginal Bone Remodeling: Texture Analysis and the New Corticalization Index, Predictor of Marginal Bone Loss-3 Months of Follow-Up.

Background/Objectives: The general condition of implantology patients is crucial when considering the long- and short-term survival of dental implants. The aim of the research was to evaluate the correlation between the new corticalization index (CI) and patients' condition, and its impact on marginal bone loss (MBL) leading to implant failure, using only radiographic (RTG) images on a pixel level. Method: Bone near the dental implant neck was examined, and texture features were analyzed. Statistical analysis includes analysis of simple regression where the correlation coefficient (CC) and R2 were calculated. Detected relationships were assumed to be statistically significant when p < 0.05. Statgraphics Centurion version 18.1.12 (Stat Point Technologies, Warrenton, VA, USA) was used to conduct the statistical analyses. Results: The research revealed a correlation between MBL after 3 months and BMI, PTH, TSH, Ca2+ level in blood serum, phosphates in blood serum, and vitamin D. A correlation was also observed between CI and PTH, Ca2+ level in blood serum, vitamin D, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides on the day of surgery. After 3 months of the observation period, CI was correlated with PTH, TSH, Ca2+ level in blood serum, and triglycerides. Conclusion: The results of the research confirm that the general condition of patients corresponds with CI and MBL. A patient's general condition has an impact on bone metabolism around dental implants. Implant insertion should be considered if the general condition of the patient is not stable. However, CI has not yet been fully investigated. Further studies are necessary to check and categorize the impact of corticalization on marginal bone loss near dental implants.

Sex differences in conditioned pain modulation effects and its associations with autonomic nervous system activities in healthy, younger individuals: a pilot study.

Sex differences in conditioned pain modulation (CPM) have not been sufficiently explored. This pilot study aimed to examine sex differences in CPM effects and associations between autonomic activities and CPM effects in healthy, younger individuals. University students were recruited from February to March 2021 and divided by sex. They remained seated for 10 minutes as a rest period, then immersed their right hands in cold water for 2 minutes as a cold period. The pressure pain threshold (PPT) was measured after each period, presenting the CPM index (%) using the formula: (PPTcold/PPTrest) × 100. Autonomic nervous system variables were calculated using the formula-(autonomic variablecold/autonomic variablerest) × 100-and suffixed by "index" such as low-frequency/high-frequency (LF/HF) index. Some psychological questionnaires were self-recorded. Sex differences in the CPM index were statistically compared, and a simple linear regression analysis between the CPM and autonomic indices was conducted. Thirty-two participants were analyzed (14 women and 18 men; aged 21.1 ± 0.6 and 20.9 ± 0.3 years, respectively). Conditioned pain modulation effects were not different at 127.0 ± 19.1% in women and 124.0 ± 18.7% in men. The LF/HF index, LF normalized unit (nu) index (LFnu), and HFnu index had significant predictor variables for the CPM index across overall samples. The LF/HF index and LFnu index were significant predictor variables for the CPM index for women but not for men. Conditioned pain modulation effects between groups seem to be similar. The LF/HF and LFnu indices in women were significant, indicating that descending pain modulations in women might be more associated with autonomic activities than those in men.

Overall time spent by clients from entry to exit and associated factors in out-patient departments in public hospitals of Jimma Zone southwest, Ethiopia.

The overall time refers to the amount of time a patient spends in a health care facility, from the time he or she enters to the time he or she leaves. As a result of the imbalance between supply and demand, waiting times occur. Ethiopian hospitals are being reformed to improve the quality of care they provide. The time a patient spends in the hospital is one of the most important indicators of quality of care, as it provides insight into customer satisfaction and provider success. However, the overall time patients spend in hospitals was not studied. The study aimed to assess the overall time spent by clients from entry to exit and associated factors in the outpatient departments of Jimma zone hospitals. An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients from outpatient units at Jimma zone public hospitals participated in the study from March 15 to May 17, 2018. Data were collected using a time and motion tool coupled with an interviewer-administered structured questionnaire on 249 samples. Participants in the study were selected using the consecutive sampling method. Overall time, in terms of waiting and service times at each section unit, and the relationship of socio-demographic and clinical factors with overall time was the main outcome variables. Data were analyzed using descriptive and linear regression analysis. Simple linear regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between the dependent and explanatory variables. Variables were considered significantly associated with the overall time if they had a p-value of less than 0.05 at the 95% confidence interval (CI). The overall response rate was 94.8%. Overall, patients spent a median time of 342.5 minutes. Patients spent 12.7% of the total time as service time and 86% of the time waiting for care. The longest overall times were spent in the laboratory (170 minutes), imaging (95 minutes), other diagnostic units (84 minutes) and examination (83 minutes). The average overall time was increased by 52.03 minutes (95%CI 21.65, 82.412), 4.65 minutes (95%CI 3.983, 5.324), and 96.43 minutes (95%CI 52.076, 140.787) when the patient was referred, the number of patients at the queue was increased by one unit, and patients who had other diagnostic tests performed respectively with P <0.005 &adjusted R2 = 0.522. The majority of patients stayed for a longer period. Most time was spent waiting for services, particularly in the examination, laboratory, and imaging units. This is strongly related to high patient load, an absence of some services, being referred patients, and patients who had other diagnostic tests. To reduce the number of patients in the queues, hospitals should work hand in hand with the Ministry of Health to enforce policies that are understood and adopted by all workers in the lower healthcare facilities. And hospital administrators are working to strengthen the triaging system to screen patients with minor illnesses. This is because most patients with minor illnesses queue with those with more complicated illnesses. Finally, we recommend that researchers conduct further research on service quality.
