Sinus Floor Elevation Magnitude and Longitudinal Peri-Implant Marginal Bone Change over a Minimum Five-Year Follow-Up: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Background/Objectives: The magnitude of maxillary sinus floor elevation may reflect site anatomy and surgical complexity, but its association with peri-implant marginal bone change remains unclear. This study evaluated whether elevation magnitude was associated with longitudinal...

The Asylum Seeker as a Jurisdictional Anomaly: Jurisdictional Filtering and the Reconfiguration of Protection in European Union Asylum Law

European Union asylum law increasingly relies on preliminary procedural mechanisms that may affect whether, where, and through which procedure a protection claim is examined on its merits. This article examines the cumulative significance of responsibility allocation, inadmissibi...

Intraoperative Displacement of a Pterygoid Implant into the Pterygopalatine Fossa and Its Surgical Retrieval: A Case Report

Background/Objectives: Pterygoid implants are increasingly used to provide distal support in full-arch maxillary rehabilitation, improving biomechanical stability and reducing posterior cantilevers. Despite high reported survival rates, their placement is technically demanding be...

Study-Specific Morphological Signs of Non-Carious Tooth Surface Loss in Second Permanent Molars and Caries Experience in a Clinical Sample of Adolescents from Southwest Romania: A Multicenter Cross-Sectional Study

Background/Objectives: Morphological signs of non-carious tooth surface loss are clinically heterogeneous, and their prevalence depends strongly on the diagnostic framework and threshold used. This exploratory secondary analysis evaluated a study-specific combined morphological o...

Surgical Complexity and Postoperative Outcomes in Recurrent Versus Primary Incisional Hernias Following Elective Retromuscular Repair: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Background/Objectives: Recurrent incisional hernia remains a major challenge in abdominal wall surgery and is frequently associated with increased surgical complexity and adverse outcomes. However, its role as a distinct surgical entity and its cumulative operative impact remain...

Ureaplasma Species in Perinatal Disease: From the Age of Innocence to the Missing Villain

Ureaplasma urealyticum and Ureaplasma parvum occupy an odd place in perinatal medicine: dismissed for decades as harmless residents of the female genital tract, they are now recognized as pathogens with real consequences for preterm newborns. This review traces that paradigm shif...
