How surface coatings on titanium implants affect keratinized tissue: A systematic review
Abstract Apart from osseointegration, the stability and long‐term survival of percutaneous titanium implants is also strongly dependent on a qualitative soft‐tissue integration in the transcutaneous region. A firm connective tissue seal is needed to minimize soft‐tissue dehiscence and epithelial downgrowth.

Abstract Aims Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) has a poor prognosis which is aggravated by diagnostic delay. Amyloidosis extracardiac and cardiac events (AECE and ACE) may help improve CA diagnosis and typing. The aim of this study was to compare AECE and ACE between different CA types and assess their relationship with survival.
