Early Maintenance and Change of Planned Removable Prosthodontic Treatment Pathways in Patients With Functional Limitations: The Role of Impression Feasibility and Caregiver Support

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In adults with functional limitations undergoing planned removable prosthodontic treatment, early pathway change (conversion to implant‐based rehabilitation or treatment abandonment) occurred in 22.4% of patients, most within 12 weeks. Impression feasibility under routine outpatient conditions and high caregiver support were independently associated ...

Botulinum Toxin Type A (BoNT-A) Use for Post-Stroke Spasticity: A Multicenter Study Using Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning

Toxins
We conducted a multicenter and retrospective study to describe the use of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) to treat post-stroke spasticity (PSS). Data were extracted from free-text in electronic health records (EHRs) in five Spanish hospitals. We included
