Dentists, dental specialists, dental assistants, dental staff, and patients are potentially at higher risk of COVID-19 infection during dental treatments. The prosthodontic dental treatment procedures may range from low to very high risk of COVID-19. This article presents necessary recommendations regarding the prosthodontic dental treatment procedures with standards of care and infection control.

Overview: Cancers of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract form a heterogeneous group of diseases for which treatment paradigms for localized disease continue to emerge. Recently, several phase III studies in esophagus and gastric cancer that have attempted to define new standards of care have been reported. However, controversy still persists and treatment algorithms often depend on individual preference, patient referral patterns, and treatment biases. In the current era of improving quality control and standardization of care, such variations in practice present a substantial challenge for both patients and physicians. In this article, I will highlight differences in disease biology for upper GI diseases, and in particular, gastric cancer.
