Meta-Analysis
AIM
The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the survival rate of dental implant placed using different maxillary sinus floor elevation techniques.
SETTING AND DESIGN
PRISMA guidelines were used for this systematic review and meta-analysis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Relevant articles were searched from Medline, PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane trials. Articles published in English language were selected. Hand search was further conducted. For risk of bias, two tools were used, i.e., Cochrane tool for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and new castle Ottawa quality assessment tool for non-RCTs.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
For statistical meta-analysis RevMan 5.4 software was used.
RESULTS
Seventeen studies were finalized. All studies were included in the meta-analysis to check the implant survival rate. There is no statistical difference between direct and indirect techniques, and forest plot was derived for direct approach (P = 0.688, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.9691) and for indirect approach (P = 0.686 and 95% CI 0.970).
CONCLUSION
There is no statistically significant difference in the survival rate of implant placed using direct or indirect sinus lift approach procedures. Hence, the technique is selected as per the indications given for each direct and indirect procedure.

Review
Modern multimodality cancer treatment has led to a rise in cancer survivors, and by 2030 the survival rate is estimated to increase by 31.4%. This is an impressive survival statistic on which clinicians and services continue to build. One of the less well-acknowledged consequences of survivorship among health professionals and patients alike is female sexual dysfunction, despite it occurring in more than 60% of women diagnosed with cancer. The systematic assessment and management of late effects from cancer lack integration within current models of oncology follow-up. Although highly prevalent, issues linked to sexual health are often not addressed among survivors. This overview aims to focus on the sexual impact of gynaecological cancer treatment. Clinicians should raise the topic of the sexual consequences of cancer treatment as a legitimate aspect of survivorship and service provision. Increased focus on the sexual consequences of treatment and cancer survivorship may in time lead to greater clinical recognition, service development and, most importantly, increase research focused on the effective management of what remains a neglected aspect of cancer care.

Review
BACKGROUND
The incidence of osteosarcoma reached 16.8 cases annually at dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital in 1995-2008. Previous studies suggested that prolonged neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by delayed surgery improves the clinical outcome. Prolonged neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by delayed surgery commonly occurs in Indonesia, as diagnostic imaging and surgery waiting list will delay the surgery. The aim of this study is to observe the survival rate and the event-free survival rate of osteosarcoma patients with prolonged neoadjuvant chemotherapy and delayed surgery.
METHODS
This review included randomized controlled trials (RCTs), cohort studies, retrospective cohort studies, clinical trials, and reviews. Literature search was conducted through MEDLINE (PubMed search engine), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trial, and Scopus. The studies were screened and selected according to inclusion criteria by author and contributors independently.
RESULTS
Six studies were included in the qualitative synthesis of this study. Overall survival rate, event-free survival rate, histological response and recurrence as well as neoadjuvant chemotherapy duration, cycle and regiment were assessed in this study.
CONCLUSION
Prolonged neoadjuvant chemotherapy and delayed surgery results in 5-years survival rate of 43.2% to 96.6% and 5-years event-free survival rate of 35.7% to 86.4%.

: The purpose of this study is to observe the usefulness of autogenous tooth transplantation by examining the cumulative survival rate according to the period of auto-transplanted teeth as pre-implant treatment. : This study was conducted on 111 patients who visited Kyungpook National University Dental Hospital and underwent autogenous tooth transplantation between November 2008 and January 2021 (about 13 years). The cumulative survival rate of autogenous tooth transplantation according to the causes of extraction of the recipient tooth (caries, periapical lesion, crack, crown fracture, periodontitis) and condition of opposing teeth (natural teeth vs. fixed prosthesis). The cumulative survival rate of autogenous tooth transplantation according to the age (under 30 vs. over 30) was also investigated and it was examined whether there were any differences in each factor. : The average follow-up period was 12 months, followed by a maximum of 162 months. The 24-month cumulative survival rate of all auto-transplanted teeth was 91.7%, 83.1% at 60 months and the 162-month cumulative survival rate was 30.1%. There were no statistical differences between the causes of extraction of the recipient's teeth, differences in the condition of the opposing teeth, and differences under and over the age of 30. : The survival rate of autogenous tooth transplantation appears to be influenced by the conditions of the donor tooth rather than the conditions of the recipient tooth. Although autogenous tooth transplantation cannot completely replace implant treatment, it is meaningful in that it can slightly delay or at least earn the time until implant placement is possible.

Review
Drawing from a comprehensive Japan-based literature review and the author's personal experience, this article presents findings that highlight potential improvements in clinical outcomes, such as reduced mortality rates, by optimizing the current resuscitation procedure for cardiopulmonary arrest. Many countries have adopted similar procedures for cardiopulmonary arrest. This article presents a prioritized resuscitation method based on scientific evidence, aiming to improve survival rates. The study, which was conducted in Japan, revealed inconsistencies in the current resuscitation procedure for cardiopulmonary arrest. The study did not involve direct participants but relied on literature review for data collection. A literature review was conducted to analyze the survival rates of various resuscitation methods. The interventions reviewed in the literature included cardiopulmonary resuscitation, automated external defibrillator, and automatic mechanical chest compressions. The survival rate of cardiopulmonary arrest in Japan was found to be low. The results of the literature review suggest that cardiopulmonary resuscitation or automatic mechanical chest compressions should be applied before using an automated external defibrillator. The study emphasizes the need to prioritize resuscitation methods with higher survival rates. This article presents a prioritized resuscitation method based on scientific evidence, aiming to improve survival rates. It is hoped that this new approach will lead to a significant improvement in the survival rates of cardiopulmonary arrest patients.

This study was conducted with the aim of determining the growth characteristics and survival rate of Karacabey Merino lambs, as well as the non-genetic factors affecting these traits. The study included data from a total of 17659 lambs and 12263 ewes raised in 30 herds between the years 2011 and 2016 as part of the National Sheep and Goat Improvement Project. The average birth weight of the lambs was determined as 3.73±0.05 kg, the average 45th day live weight was 18.43±0.58 kg, the average weaning (average 91.8 days) weight was 31.83±0.24 kg, and the average daily live weight gain until weaning was 289.1±3.91 g. The average survival rate of lambs at weaning was calculated to be 95.67% ± 1.15. The effects of the factors herd, birth year, birth type, birth season and sex were found significant for all traits (p<0.01). It was established that the mortality rate in lambs in large herds was higher during 6 years in which the project was carried out. Due to the high twinning rate in large herds, the number of lambs per worker is increased, and as a result, they cannot be adequately cared for. For this reason, large farms may be encouraged to increase workmanship services in addition to being provided with protective health practices for lambs throughout the birth period. On the other hand, it was determined that the twinning rate was low in small farms. On farms with fewer sheep populations, it may be advised to flush or administer exogenous hormone treatments to ewes in order to increase fertility and help them bear twins.

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of logistic multivariate analysis on the survival rate of advanced malignant tumors and to evaluate the effect of erythrocyte storage injury on the survival rate of advanced malignant tumors and its clinical significance.
METHODS
A retrospective analysis was performed on 120 advanced cancer patients who received blood transfusion in Shaanxi Cancer Hospital from March 2018 to June 2019, and the risk factors for death were analyzed. A total of 72 advanced cancer patients admitted to hospital from March 2019 to June 2021 were included in the study. The patients with red blood cell transfusion storage time ≤ 14 d were the study group ( = 36), and the patients with red blood cell transfusion storage time > 14 d were the control group ( = 36). Compare the total efficiency of blood transfusion. The levels of Hb, erythrocyte count, hematocrit (HCT), blood oxygen saturation (SPO2), creatinine (Cr), erythrocyte deformability index, whole blood, erythrocyte, and hemoglobin before and after blood transfusion were compared, and the adverse reactions of blood transfusion were recorded.
RESULTS
Dyspnea and delirium were significantly associated with patient survival time ( < 0.05). Red blood cell storage time ≤ 14 days, Lym% < 12%, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) > 500 U/L, and ALB < 30 g/L were significantly correlated with survival time. Karnofsky performance status (KPS) < 30, delirium, LDH > 500 U/L, and albumin (ALB) < 30 g/L were independent influencing factors of survival ( < 0.05). The overall effective rate of the research group was higher ( < 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was lower ( < 0.05). The levels of Hb, red blood cell count, and HCT in the study group were higher ( < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the SPO2 level and the red blood cell deformability index were higher in the study group ( < 0.05). After blood transfusion, the level of (diphosphoglycerate) DPG in the study group was higher than that in the control group ( < 0.05). The length of hospital stay in the study group was significantly shortened ( < 0.05). The nosocomial infection rate and case fatality rate in the study group were significantly reduced ( < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
Red blood cell storage time ≤ 14 d, LYM% < 12%, LDH > 500 U/L, and ALB < 30 g/L are all significantly correlated with survival time. KPS < 30, delirium, LDH > 500 U/L, and ALB < 30 g/L were independent factors for survival ( < 0.05). Transfusion of red blood cells stored for ≤14 days in patients with advanced malignant tumors can significantly increase the effective infusion rate, improve anemia status, shorten hospital stay, and reduce mortality and risk of nosocomial infection and is worthy of clinical promotion.
