Re: Review of emerging temporomandibular joint total joint replacement systems
The recent paper by Elledge et al1 provides an overview of the plethora of total temporomandibular joint (TMJ) replacement systems that are currently available on the market. The paper emphasises the importance of design factors, such as sufficient lateral fixation of the ramal component to the mandible, and the correct use of biomaterials. The discussion focuses on potential flaws in the biomaterials of some recent systems and mentions concern regarding the use of a totally ultra-high-molecular-weight...

Variations in the aftercare of facial wounds: a survey of maxillofacial clinicians
Good aftercare of traumatic wounds reduces the risk of infection and improves functional and aesthetic outcomes. Inconsistencies in the instructions given by oral and maxillofacial (OMF) surgeons to patients with facial lacerations have previously been noted. We therefore sent anonymous online surveys to OMF clinicians in the United Kingdom to investigate the extent of the variation in aftercare advice given to patients who have had traumatic lacerations of the skin of the head and neck. Respondents...

Re: Oncological benefits of postoperative radiotherapy in node-negative early stage cancer of the oral cavity with isolated perineural invasion
We would like to congratulate Rajappa et al1 on publishing their work regarding perineural invasion in early oral cancer. We concur with their conclusions that perineural invasion is a risk factor for recurrence of oral cancer. As quoted by the authors themselves, the systematic review by Bur et al also concluded that adjuvant radiation in early oral cavity cancer in the presence of perineural invasion as the only risk factor cannot be recommended in view of considerable limitations in existing publications.

Augmented Reality for Narrow Area Navigation in Jaw Surgery: Modified Tracking by Detection Volume Subtraction Algorithm
Abstract Background and Aim Jaw surgery based on Augmented Reality (AR) still has limitations in terms of navigating narrow areas. Surgeons need to avoid nerves, vessels and teeth in their entirety, not just root canals. Inaccurate positioning of the surgical instrument may lead to positional or navigational errors and can result in cut blood vessels, nerve channels or root canals. This research aims to decrease the positional error during surgery and improve navigational accuracy by reducing...

First Noninvasive Cortisol Detector to Monitor Stress, Mental Conditions
Stress related to our mental well-being, including that associated with depression, anxiety, and PTSD, is difficult to measure in practice. Levels of cortisol, a steroid hormone, are closely linked to changes in one’s mental state and blood tests are available to measure cortisol. But a blood test can raise a person’s stress level itself and it can’t be done frequently, nor without a medical professional. Now researchers at Caltech are reporting on the first noninvasive, wearable sensor that...

Stretchy Coils to Make MRI Imaging Easier on Patients
When undergoing MRI scanning, many patients have to have the body parts being imaged strapped into rigid radio-frequency (RF) coils. These can be uncomfortable, as they’re not custom-sized for every patient, and since many MRI exams can take a half hour or more to perform, the scanning process can be difficult for many to undergo. Researchers at Purdue University have now developed RF coils that can be flexed and stretched, and that may one day be used within wearable garments that would be...

The Interplay between Immune System and Microbiota in Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and alterations of bone microarchitecture, with an increased risk of fractures. It is a multifactorial disorder that is more frequent in postmenopausal women but can be associated to other diseases (inflammatory and metabolic diseases). At present, several options are available to treat osteoporosis trying to block bone reabsorption and reduce the risk of fracture. Anyway, these drugs have safety and tolerance problems in long-term treatment....

Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres and Differential Expression of Endocrine Transcription Factors Distinguish Metastatic and Non-metastatic Insulinomas
Abstract Insulin-producing pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs)/insulinomas are generally considered to be indolent tumors with an excellent prognosis after complete resection. However, some insulinomas have a poor prognosis due to relapses and metastatic disease. Recently, studies in non-functional PanNETs indicated that behavior can be stratified according to alpha- and beta-cell differentiation, as defined by expression of the transcription factors ARX and PDX1, respectively....
