Objectives: This study aimed to assess the prevalence, anatomical distribution, and clinical relevance of incidental findings in large-field cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans and to identify patient-related predictors associated with their occurrence. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 203 patie...

BACKGROUND
Chronological age inadequately reflects physiologic vulnerability in older adults undergoing complex reconstruction. Frailty, quantified by the 5-item Modified Frailty Index (mFI-5), may better stratify perioperative risk in fibula free flap (FFF) reconstruction for head and neck defects, but its impact rema...

Bone healing across the osteotomy gap after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) determines whether osteosynthesis material can be safely removed, but is traditionally assessed by subjective visual inspection of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. This study aimed to develop and validate a deep learning-b...

Despite the recognized biological relevance of the PD-1/PD-L1 axis in immune evasion, the prognostic significance of PD-L1 expression in surgically treated oral squamous cell cancer (OSCC) patients remains largely unclear. To investigate the prognostic significance of PD-L1 expression in a large cohort of OSCC patients...

Outcomes after combined facial aesthetic surgery (CFAS), defined as the simultaneous performance of two or more facial rejuvenation procedures in a single operative setting, are commonly evaluated using subjective tools with high interrater variability. This pilot feasibility study aimed to explore a quantitative, auto...

PEO is associated with a less pro-inflammatory peri-implant immune profile at day 28, and improved bone healing parameters, which inform the design of immunomodulatory, degradable implants to improve bone healing.
