It is assumed that the reduction of the flap dimension could provide a reduction of surgical time, post surgical complications and patient's discomfort when compared with the traditional surgical approach.
Aim: to evaluate the possible benefit on wound healing and flap stability of periosteum inclusion, comparing a "split-full-split" thickness flap elevation versus a "split" thickness approach performed during CAF for the treatment of isolated-type gingival recessions in the upper jaw. Material and Methods: forty patients were randomized, 20 were treated with "split-full-split" (test group) and 20 with a "split" approach (control group). Analyzed parameters at 1 year were: CRC, percentage of Recession Coverage (RC), Keratinized tissue (KT) gain, patient-related outcome measurements.
The aim of this study was to investigate salivary and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of IL-17A, IL-17E, IL-6 AND IL-23 during 2/3 trimester of pregnancy and after delivery.
The aim of this study was to investigate salivary and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of MMP-8, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 during 2/3 trimester of pregnancy and after delivery
An online, interactive web-based program for older teens and their parents is designed to address teen alcohol use and teen relationships. The parent-teen dyad both participate in the web-based program and engage in off-line discussion activities. This intervention promotes communication skills, refusal skills, and helps teens consider how to make healthy choices. A total of 411 family dyads (one parent, one teen) were recruited.
In order to manage the future increase in osteoarthritis consultation, patients with osteoarthritis could be assessed by a physical therapist first, so that other patients with more severe conditions could get faster access to a primary care physician. In Swedish primary care, physicians and physical therapists are primary assessors for patients with suspected knee osteoarthritis. However, it is unclear if there are any differences between these managements in improving health-related quality of life (HrQoL), pain, physical function and self-efficacy. There are a limited amount of studies about the impact on HrQoL, pain intensity, self-efficacy and physical performance in patients with knee pain being assessed and evaluated by a physical therapist as a primary assessor. The overall purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects on self-rated HrQoL, pain intensity, self-efficacy and physical performance with either a physical therapist or a physician as primary assessor for patients with knee pain within primary health care. Problem statements Which effect does a clinical pathway with a physical therapist as primary assessor for patients with knee pain… 1. … have on self-rated HrQoL compared with a physician as primary assessor? 2. … have on self-rated pain intensity compared with a physician as primary assessor? 3. … have on physical performance compared with a physician as primary assessor? 4. … have on self-efficacy compared with a physician as primary assessor? It is expected that this study will show the effects of two different primary assessors for patients with knee pain consulting primary health care. The results could clarify which profession that is most appropriate to be the primary assessor for patients with knee pain in primary health care.
The Regaining Confidence after Stroke Course (RCAS) is a group therapy intervention to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a definitive trial, aimed to facilitate adjustment for people with stroke discharged from rehabilitation, compared with usual care. The study also aimed to evaluate the feasibility of improving mood and coping in carers of the course participants.
This study is part of a larger overall study that seeks to characterize clinical and pharmacological neuroimaging biomarkers. The purpose of this registered protocol is understand the effect of emotion on cognitions by specifically examining the effect of reward processing on working memory in patients with schizophrenia.
In two research projects a comprehensive prehospital telemedicine system was developed and general feasibility as well as impact on guideline adherence were evaluated. These results allowed stepwise implementation into medical routine care. All steps and milestones from the research idea to implementation were analyzed and evaluated descriptively in this study. Using a pre-post intervention analysis the systemic effects of the implementation on change in emergency medical resource utilization were analyzed.
This randomized controlled trial was aimed at assessing the efficacy of a two-stage crown lengthening intervention (SCL) for restorative purposes in the aesthetic zone compared with a one-stage crown lengthening procedure (CCL).
