Filter by:Inguinal hernia surgery is one of the most frequently performed procedures among general surgery cases. As with many open surgical methods, this repair is also performed laparoscopically. Among these closed methods, the one method is laparoscopic extended total extraperitoneal repair (eTEP). The benefits of laparoscope include less postoperative pain and complications, faster recovery, reduced chronic pain, and recurrence rate. One of the recent debates regarding the laparoscopic technique is mesh fixation. Fixation of the mesh to the cooper ligament can prevent mesh migration and consequently reduce the recurrence rate. However, it has been reported that this fixation may increase postoperative pain. Several studies have reported that recurrence may be due to inadequate mesh fixation technique. In contrast, other prospective randomized studies have found relapse unrelated to mesh fixation. There are studies in the literature on mesh fixation related to the total extraperitoneal repair (TEP) technique. These studies are generally planned for unilateral hernias. It is a controversial issue among surgeons that the possibility of mesh migration is higher in bilateral hernias since there is a larger dissection area. This discussion is the starting point of this study. There were no studies in the literature regarding mesh fixation in bilateral inguinal hernias. The aim of this study is to compare bilateral inguinal hernia patients with and without mesh fixation in the eTEP technique in terms of both mesh migration and clinical features.

However, it has been reported that this fixation may increase postoperative pain. Several studies have reported that recurrence may be due to inadequate mesh fixation technique. In contrast, other prospective randomized studies have found relapse unrelated to mesh fixation. In the eTEP technique, dissection is performed in a larger area than in TEP. For this reason, it can be thought that the possibility of mesh displacement is higher in the eTEP procedure. The purpose of this study is to confirm this idea with a prospective study. There are studies in the literature on mesh fixation related to the total extraperitoneal repair (TEP) technique. However, there is no study on mesh detection in the eTEP technique. The aim of the study is to compare patients who underwent without mesh fixation laparoscopic TEP and eTEP repair in terms of clinical data such as mesh displacement and hernia recurrence, chronic pain, length of hospital stay, and postoperative complications.
The aim of this study was to compare the differences in relapse and failure rates in patients treated with fixed retainers (FRs) using Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing technology, lab-based technique, and chairside method.
Comparson of efficiency and effectiveness of twisted/coaxial and linked retainers, placed under relative versus absolute isolation.
The purpose of the study was to compare the clinical effectiveness of bonded versus vacuum-formed retainers regarding their retention capacity; periodontal health; survival rates; and patients' perception after 12 months of removal of fixed appliances. The null hypotheses considered that there was no differences between the retainers in relation to the aspects evaluated.
Patients who suffer from MDD recieved ketamnie (2014-15) in open study will be addressed and there depression mood will be evaluated using the rating scale that were used in the original research. In addition time of relapse and questions about their medications and drug use will be performed.
Cohort study enrolled high-risk Hodgkin Lymphoma patients in first relapse after induction therapy followed after remission either with a systemic imaging-based surveillance (Imaging cohort) or with standard clinical-based surveillance (standard cohort).
10 years of follow-up with SF-36 global (Quality of Life issues), GSRS (Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale) and two reflux specific questionnaires.
The project proposes to continue the development of an intervention for relapse prevention in the form of a professional quality video game which rewards drug-rejecting physical motions and spoken refusal phrases. Phase I research findings showed that youth in recovery experienced increased low craving levels, strong levels of satisfaction, and interest in attending treatment sessions where the intervention is available - an important outcome since failure to attend treatment is highly correlated with relapse. In Phase II, the investigators propose to modify and expand the prototype based on customer feedback from treatment centers, counselors and patients. The investigators will test the effectiveness of the motion and voice-controlled game in a randomized controlled trial of youths in treatment for opioid use disorder who have access to the game for a month. The investigators will measure the effect of gameplay on successful completion of detoxification/inpatient treatment and rates of linkage to next level of outpatient treatment. The investigators will also measure the effect of gameplay compared to treatment as usual (TAU) during a subsequent episode of outpatient treatment (following inpatient), on rates of treatment attendance, treatment retention, urine drug test results, substance use self-report, treatment alliance, drug craving, and treatment satisfaction.
The study evaluates effectiveness of two types of fixed retainers in post orthodontic patients. Half of the subjects are randomly allocated Group 1 retainer (FRC) and other half is given Group 2 retainer (MSW) and followed for a period of one year.
