For patients with edentulous maxillae, creating a prosthetic treatment plan involves considering anatomical factors, aesthetics, the patient’s financial situation, and oral hygiene capabilities. In this case, CAD-CAM technology was used to accurately plan implant placements for a full arch fixed restoration based on the design of the final prosthesis. A customized surgical guide ensured precise implant placement and a provisional restoration was created using CAD-CAM. The definitive prosthesis was then created based on the second provisional restoration that has been previously used and adjusted by the patient. This approach achieved an excellent functional and aesthetic outcome, highlighting the benefits of digital approach and its potential for further clinical applications.

Schwann cells are the most abundant cells in the peripheral nervous system, maintaining the development, function and regeneration of peripheral nerves. Defects in these Schwann cells injury response potentially contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), a common complication of diabetes mellitus. The protein p66shc is essential in regulating oxidative stress responses, autophagy induction and cell survival, and is also vital in the development of DPN. In this study, we hypothesized that p66shc mediates high glucose-induced oxidative stress and autophagic dysfunction. In Schwann cells treated with high glucose; p66shc expression, levels of reactive oxygen species, autophagy impairment, and early apoptosis were elevated. Inhibition of p66shc gene expression by siRNA reversed high glucose-induced oxidative stress, autophagy impairment, and early apoptosis. We also demonstrated that the levels of p66shc was increased, while autophagy-related proteins p62 and LC3 (LC3-II/I) were suppressed in the sciatic nerve of streptozotocin-induced diabetes mice. P66shc-deficient mice exhibited the improvement in autophagy impairment after diabetes onset. Our findings suggest that the p66 plays a crucial role in Schwann cell dysfunction, identifying its potential as a therapeutic target.

Long coronavirus disease (COVID) is a condition in which coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptoms persist for over 3 months, and currently poses a global public health challenge. Due to varying manifestations and lack of standardized definitions, diagnostic methods, and treatments, comprehensive clinical guidelines are required. This review article, summarizing research and expert consensus up to June 2023, provides recommendations for diagnosis and long-term management of long COVID symptoms. It emphasizes thorough patient evaluation, including medical history, physical examinations, and tests, and advocates vaccination and antiviral treatments to reduce risk. Guidelines for long COVID will be updated as new knowledge emerges.
