The need to rehabilitate severely compromised teeth is frequent in daily clinical practice. Tooth extraction and replacement with dental implant represents a common treatment choice. However, the survival rate for implants is inferior to teeth, even if severely damaged but properly treated. In order to reestablish a physiological supracrestal tissue attachment of damaged teeth and to arrange an efficient ferrule effect, three options can be considered: crown lengthening, orthodontic extrusion and surgical extrusion. Crown lengthening is considered an invasive technique that causes the removal of part of the bony support, while both orthodontic and surgical extrusion can avoid this inconvenience and can be used successfully in the treatment of severely damaged teeth. The aim of the present narrative review is to compare advantages, disadvantages, time of therapy required, contraindications and complications of both techniques.

Crown lengthening is the exposure of root structure to function as clinical crown for restorative coverage.1 Indications for crown lengthening include increasing the amount of clinical crown available for attachment of a prosthesis (crown or bridge) following crown fracture, and exposure of a malerupted tooth crown allowing management of any pathologic changes. Types of crown lengthening procedures include simple gingivectomy [type I], apically repositioned flap(s) following bone recontouring [type II], or orthodontic extrusion [type III]. Type I and II crown lengthening procedures involve periodontal surgery requiring maintenance of the biological width of the gingiva composed of the gingival sulcus, junctional epithelium, and connective tissue attachment (Fig. 1). Each of these zones is approximately 1-mm wide in humans, and may be 2 to 3-mm wide in large dogs. In type II crown lengthening procedures in dogs, the apically repositioned flap should maintain a minimum 3-mm biological width of the gingiva coronal to the newly formed alveolar crest to provide space for the three zones to reestablish. Failure to maintain gingival biological width physiology may cause an inflammatory response that results in crestal bone resorption and apical migration of periodontal soft tissues.1 Advanced periodontal disease resulting in the formation of infrabony pockets may jeopardize tooth maintenance.1 Crown preparation may be performed acutely, however a 2 to 3-week interval is recommended between crown lengthening and preparation to allow for accurate assessment of gingival margin location following wound healing. Type II crown lengthening of the mandibular and maxillary canine teeth is described step-by-step.

A review of the literature on the stages of the formation of temporary and permanent occlusion has been performed. This stages play an important role not only for the full development of the maxillofacial apparatus, temporomandibular joint, but also the whole organism. The role of early tooth extraction in the formation of the physiological state of the dentoalveolar system is considered. The conclusion is drawn about the need for a deeper study of this problem in the structure of general dental morbidity.

Critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) have a high risk of developing malnutrition, and this is associated with poorer clinical outcomes. In clinical practice, nutrition, including enteral nutrition (EN), is often not prioritized. Resulting from this, risks and safety issues for patients and healthcare professionals can emerge. The aim of this literature review, inspired by the Rapid Review Guidebook by Dobbins, 2017, was to identify risks and safety issues for patient safety in the management of EN in critically ill patients in the ICU. Three databases were used to identify studies between 2009 and 2020. We assessed 3495 studies for eligibility and included 62 in our narrative synthesis. Several risks and problems were identified: No use of clinical assessment or screening nutrition assessment, inadequate tube management, missing energy target, missing a nutritionist, bad hygiene and handling, wrong time management and speed, nutritional interruptions, wrong body position, gastrointestinal complication and infections, missing or not using guidelines, understaffing, and lack of education. Raising awareness of these risks is a central aspect in patient safety in ICU. Clinical experts can use a checklist with 12 identified top risks and the recommendations drawn up to carry out their own risk analysis in clinical practice.

Background: In Japan, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) became popular for cardiac arrest patients who resist conventional advanced life supports. Regardless of many clinical experiences, there has been no previous systematic literature review. Methods: Case series, reports and proceedings of scientific meeting about ECPR for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest written in Japanese between January 1, 1983 and July 31, 2007 were collected with Japana Centra Revuo Medicina (medical publication database in Japan) and review by experts. The outcome and characteristics of the patients were investigated, and the influence of publication bias of the case series study was also examined by the Funnel Plot method. Results: There were 951 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients who received ECPR in 92 reports (including 59 case series and 33 case reports) during the period. The average of age was 38.1 (4 – 88) years old and 76.1% was male. Three hundreds and eighty-one cases (40.1%) were arrests of cardiac etiology, and 212 were non-cardiac (22.3%). The cause of arrest was not described in other 37.6%. Excluding reports for only one case, weighted survival rate at discharge of 792 cases those were clearly described the outcome was 39.5±10.0%. When the relationship between the number of cases and the survival rate at discharge in each 59 case series study was shown in figure by the Funnel Plot method, the plotted data presented the reverse-funnel type that centered on the average of survival rate of all. Conclusions: The influence of publication bias of previous reports in Japan was relatively low. ECPR can greatly contribute to improve the outcome of out-of hospital cardiac arrests.

Widely used in clinical practice surgical interventions directed to the correction of severe kyphotic spine deformities, i.e. Ponte osteotomy, Smith-Peterson osteotomy, pedicle subtraction osteotomy and vertebral column resection are presented. Surgical techniques, surgery planning based on spinal and pelvic sagittal contour parameters, treatment results are described.
