Clinical considerations in the surgical management of peri‐implantitis lesions in the esthetic zone

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

Objective

The treatment of peri-implantitis is commonly associated to soft tissue changes as part of disease resolution. These changes may alter harmony in the esthetic area, and thus may negatively affect patient satisfaction. This technical note presents the key features that may lead to an unsatisfactory esthetic outcome when managing peri-implantitis in the anterior zone.

Clinical Significance

It is essential to consider four pivotal elements in securing therapeutic success through the resolution of inflammation while maintaining esthetics: (1) patient-related factors, including patient willingness to treat and the smile line; (2) implant-related factors that influence implant position; (3) site-related factors related to defect configuration; and (4) prosthetic-related factors referred to the prosthetic emergence profile and the type of prosthesis. A comprehensive examination must be carried out preoperatively to assess the impact of the surgical treatment upon the esthetic outcomes.

Conclusion

The clinician must be aware of the key features that condition the esthetic outcome when managing peri-implantitis.

Sex‐specific role of alexithymia in associations between parental bonding and mental health: A moderated mediation model

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

Objective

This study aimed to explore the role of alexithymia and potential sex differences in the associations between perceived parental bonding and mental health.

Methods

The sample consists of 2421 parents from the FinnBrain Birth Cohort Study who completed the parental bonding instrument, the Toronto alexithymia scale, the Edinburgh postnatal depression scale, and the anxiety subscale of the symptom checklist-90. Moderated mediation analyses were conducted to examine the possible mediating role of alexithymia and moderating role of sex in the associations between parental bonding and depressive/anxiety symptoms.

Results

Alexithymia was found to be a potential mediator and sex be a moderator in the relations between perceived dysfunctional parental bonding and the psychological symptoms. Specifically, dysfunctional paternal bonding, especially paternal overprotection, had stronger indirect effects (via alexithymia) on the psychological symptoms in males.

Conclusions

This study indicates the importance of alexithymia in the parenting-related mental health impacts and highlights the significance of paternal bonding for the development of alexithymia and mental health problems in male populations. The findings improve the limited understanding of sex-related parental factors for alexithymia and mental health problems. Future studies in longitudinal designs are warranted to clarify the causal process of the mediation.

There’s No Place like Home: Integrating a Place-Based Approach to Understanding Sleep

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader
Abstract
Light exposure at night impedes sleep and shifts the circadian clock. An extensive body of literature has linked sleep deprivation and circadian misalignment with cardiac disease, cancer, mental health disorders, and other chronic illnesses, as well as more immediate risks, such as motor vehicle crashes and occupational injuries. In the current issue of the journal, Zhong et al. build on this literature, finding that in a cohort of 50,000 California teachers, artificial light at night, noise, greenspace, and air pollution were all associated with sleep disturbances.Light, noise, air pollution, and the lack of greenspace are problems inequitably distributed across the population, concentrated among vulnerable populations in inner cities. The current study provides novel data on the manner in which these local environmental exposures drive sleep deprivation. Future research should explore the degree to which place-based disparities in sleep in turn drive disparities in short and long-term health. Addressing home-based sleep disparities could be an avenue to addressing systemic racism and achieving environmental justice.
