Role of FibroScan in evaluating hepatic involvement in systemic amyloidosis: a single‐centre prospective pilot study

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Amyloidosis encompasses a group of diseases characterised by extracellular deposition of misfolded protein fibrils, potentially leading to organ dysfunction. Liver involvement occurs via direct amyloid infiltration, common in immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis, or congestive hepatopathy, more typical in transthyretin (ATTR)

Optimizing surgery in hidradenitis suppurativa

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Surgery in hidradenitis suppurativa should be matched to disease extent. A structured six‐step approach—comprehensive assessment, optimal timing, ultrasound‐guided mapping, tailored intervention, individualized reconstruction and structured wound care—integrated with targeted systemic therapy optimizes outcomes and reduces recurrence.

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

Journal 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 ...

Soft‐Tissue Integration of Dental Implants: Formation, Maintenance, and Relevance for Peri‐Implant Health

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Sixty years after the introduction of dental implants, it is clear that soft‐tissue integration is as essential as osseointegration. This review outlines how peri‐implant soft tissues develop, protect, and sometimes fail, revealing key knowledge gaps and new opportunities to improve long‐term implant stability.
