An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Peri‐Implant Soft‐Tissue Phenotype Modification for Refractory Peri‐Implant Mucositis: A 12‐Month Prospective Clinical Study With Ultrasonographic Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Surgical treatment of refractory peri‐implant mucositis with a free gingival graft (FGG) was effective in disease resolution, achieving reductions in probing pocket depth (PPD) and inflammation. Significant gains in mucosal thickness (MT) and keratinized mucosa width (KMW), as well as partial recession coverage and re‐establishment of attached mucosa ...

Noninvasive Tests for Predicting Decompensation in Compensated Advanced Chronic Liver Disease: A Comprehensive Review. [PDF]

open access: yesLiver Int
ABSTRACT Strong non‐invasive tests (NITs) are needed to predict decompensation in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD) and improve personalized patient care. We conducted a comprehensive review of the studies evaluating the effectiveness of NITs in predicting decompensation or liver‐related death in patients with cACLD.
