Sacroiliac joint as a potential source of low back pain is an overlooked problem. Yet, in the existing years there has been an increasing interest in sacroiliac joint as a pain originator and more attention is being paid into its assessment and treatment in the current literature. Muscle imbalance due to postural dysfunction involves mainly gluteus medius and hamstring; however the role of quadratus lumborum working on compensatory mechanism and its treatment effect in the management of sacroiliac joint dysfunction is yet not discovered.
vacuum formed retainer act as bite raiser that increase vertical dimension which may affect Tempromandibular joint and aim of this study is to perform clinical and radiographic evaluation of different thickness of vacuum formed retainer (Essix retainer) during retention phase after orthodontic treatment
Sponsor is conducting this post market clinical study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of its PROFEMUR® Preserve Classic Femoral Stem. This type of study is required by regulatory authorities for all devices that have been approved in Europe (EU) to evaluate the medium and long-term clinical evidence. This study has been designed in accordance with MEDDEV2.12/2 (European Medical Device Vigilance System) rev2 and ISO (International Organization of Standardization) 14155:2011 guidelines.
Total hip and knee arthroplasty are among the most common surgical procedures for which blood transfusion is prescribed. Patient blood management program has been proposed to decrease the need for transfusion. This program involve three pillars: preoperative improvement of erythropoiesis, intraoperative reduction of bleeding and postoperative management of anemia. Among the different steps of this program, reduction of bleeding and optimization of anemia are gaining popularity, but preoperative improvement of erythropoiesis is underused. The preoperative step of the blood management program is not systematically used because it requires a complex organization, is considered expensive, and finally because the others available techniques to reduce blood transfusion are easier to implement. The aim of this study was to assess, within a patient blood management program, the effectiveness of erythropoietin on reducing allogenic blood transfusion and anemia in patients requiring elective total hip or knee arthroplasty.

The patients who applied to the hospital for orthodontic treatment were asked various questions to evaluate their oral health related quality of life, malocclusions and self reported temporomandibular joint problems.
The aim of this study to investigate the effectiveness of trigger point treatments (ischemic compression) on pain intensity, chronic pain severity, range of motion(ROM), pain pressure threshold (PPT) and functionality on patient with temporomandibular joint dysfunction.(TMD)
