Venous thromboembolism (VTE) recurrence is a major concern after a first symptomatic episode, potentially impacting survival and healthcare needs in community, hospital and rehabilitation settings. We evaluated the association of D-Dimer positivity after oral anticoagulant therapy (OAT) discontinuation with VTE recurrence. PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and EMBASE databases were systematically searched. Differences were expressed as Odds Ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI). Pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive (PLR) and negative likelihood ratio (NLR), and summary ROC (sROC) curve were calculated. Twenty-six articles on 10,725 VTE patients showed that the absolute risk of recurrence was 16.1% (95%CI 13.2%-19.5%) among 4,049 patients with a positive D-Dimer and 7.4% (95%CI 6.0%-9.0%) in 6,676 controls (OR 2.1, 95%CI 1.7-2.8, P<0.001), with an attributable risk of 54.0%. sROC curve of the association between positive D-Dimer and recurrence showed a diagnostic AUC of 63.8 (95%CI 60.3-67.4), with a pooled sensitivity of 54.3% (95%CI 51.3%-57.3%), specificity of 64.2% (95%CI 63.2-65.1), PLR of 1.53 (95%CI 1.37-1.72), and NLR of 0.71 (95%CI 0.60-0.84). Subgroup and meta-regression analyses suggested that a positive D-Dimer may have a higher discriminatory ability for patients with provoked events, confirmed by better pooled diagnostic indexes for recurrence and a diagnostic AUC of 70.6 (95%CI 63.8-77.4). Regression models showed that the rate of OAT resumption after the evidence of D-Dimer positivity was inversely associated with VTE recurrence (Z-score -3.91, P<0.001). D-Dimer positivity after OAT may identify VTE patients at higher risk of recurrence, with a better diagnostic accuracy for provoked events. D-Dimer positivity after OAT may identify VTE patients at higher risk of recurrence, with a better diagnostic accuracy for provoked events. Heavy metals impair renal function, causing chronic kidney disease (CKD), and the petrochemical industry is one of the major environmental metal emission sources. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between renal function and metal exposure among the Taiwanese residents living near a petrochemical industry site. We recruited residents near the No. 6 Naphtha Cracking Complex, and they were categorized into a high-exposure (HE) group (N=190) in Taisi Village and a low-exposure (LE) group (N=1184) in other villages of Dacheng Township in Changhua County of Taiwan. The urinary nickel, chromium, and vanadium levels of the study subjects were measured and the levels were standardized by urine creatinine, and the estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) were calculated to estimate renal function by one-time health data. Linear regression models were applied to illustrate the correlations between the distance to the complex and urinary metal levels and renal function; linear and logistic regression models were applied to evaluate the associations between urinary metal levels and renal function indicators. The study subjects living closer to the petrochemical complex had significantly higher urinary nickel, chromium, and vanadium levels and worse renal function than study subjects living farther away. The urinary nickel and chromium levels of the study subjects were associated with their renal function indicators. When the subject's urinary nickel level increased 1-fold, the eGFR level significantly decreased by 0.820ml/min/1.73m . Residents living closer to the petrochemical industry were exposed to higher metal levels and had worse renal function, and the nickel exposure of residents was potentially related to their decline in renal function. Residents living closer to the petrochemical industry were exposed to higher metal levels and had worse renal function, and the nickel exposure of residents was potentially related to their decline in renal function.We presented the clinical course and immune responses of a well-controlled HIV-positive patient with COVID-19. The clinical presentation and antibody production to SARS-CoV-2 were similar to other COVID-19 patients without HIV infection. Neutralizing antibody reached a plateau from 26th to 47th day onset but decreased on 157th day after symptoms.The aim of this study was to evaluate a novel soft tissue-based method to register an intraoral scan (IOS) with a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan. IOS and CBCT data were obtained from eight dentate patients (mean age 21±2 years; three male, five female) and 14 fully edentulous patients (mean age 56±9 years; eight male, six female). An algorithm was developed to create a soft tissue model of the CBCT scan, which allowed a soft tissue-based registration to be performed with the IOS. First, validation was performed on dentate jaws with registration of the palatal mucosal surface and accuracy evaluation at the level of the teeth. Second, fully edentulous jaws were registered using both the palatal and alveolar crest mucosal surfaces. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Zileuton.html Distance maps were created to measure the method accuracy. The mean registration error was 0.49±0.26mm for the dentate jaws. Registration of the fully edentulous jaws had a mean error of 0.16±0.08mm at the palate and 0.16±0.05mm at the alveolar crest. In conclusion, the high accuracy of this registration method may allow the digital workflow to be optimized when no teeth are available to perform a regular registration procedure.Computer-aided microvascular mandible reconstruction is an increasingly common procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery. The aim of this retrospective single-centre study was to evaluate the rate and specifics of hardware removal after fibula free flap (FFF) fixation with a patient-specific reconstruction plate. The study included patients who underwent hardware removal between April 2017 and October 2019. Statistical analyses were performed regarding the different indications for plate removal (dental implantation versus complication) and the surgical approach (intraoral versus extraoral). Plate removal was performed in 29 of 98 patients (29.6%) after FFF fixation with a patient-specific reconstruction plate. Plate removal was done prior to dental implantation in 58.6% of cases and due to complications in 41.4%. Complications seen between reconstructive surgery and plate removal were less frequent in the dental rehabilitation group (8/17 vs 12/12; P=0.002). Within this group, 35.3% of plates were removed intraorally, and the majority of partial plate removals were performed in the patients with plate removal for dental rehabilitation (72.
