[PMID: 38217685 PMCID: PMC10787682 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-024-05498-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/07/2024] [Indexed: 01/15/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify the 100 top-cited articles on dentin adhesives utilizing comprehensive bibliometric and altmetric analyses. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Institute of Scientific Information Web of Knowledge database was used to compile the top-cited articles published from 1945 through February 12, 2023. Citation counts were manually retrieved for each article from Scopus, Google Scholar, Dimensions, and Altmetric. The articles were analyzed in terms of their number of citations, year, journal name, author (name, institution, and country), and type and specific field of study. We used descriptive statistics to summarize the results. RESULTS The analysis revealed that the top 100 cited articles originated from 18 English-language journals and collectively accumulated a remarkable 34526 citations. The article with the highest number of citations garnered 1288 references. Among authors, Van Meerbeek B. stood out with nine articles and 4650 citations, followed by Pashley D.H. with six articles and 2769 citations. Japan was the leading contributor by country, while the Catholic University of Leuven led in terms of institutions with 20 articles. CONCLUSION According to this study, basic research and review articles garnered the most citations, respectively. The citation analysis revealed different trends for researchers, the first being that researchers have focused on basic fields such as the ultramorphology of dentin and adhesive interfaces, followed by bond strength to dentin. Two studies on clinical experiences suggested that studies with high-level evidence, such as systematic reviews, meta-analyses, or randomized controlled clinical trials, are required. CLINICAL RELEVANCE It is identified that more studies with high-level evidence-based research are needed in the field of dental adhesives.

[PMID: 38174036 PMCID: PMC10761290 DOI: 10.5624/isd.20230106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Revised: 07/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose This bibliometric analysis aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the characteristics, trends, and level of diagnostic efficacy of studies on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) published in Imaging Science in Dentistry (ISD) from 2011 to 2022. Materials and Methods Publications related to CBCT identified in the electronic collection of ISD were selected according to eligibility criteria by 2 independent reviewers who collected data on the characteristics of the articles (year, authors, and country). The type and topic of studies were analyzed using VOSviewer v.1.6.18 (Centre for Science and Technology Studies, Leiden University, Leiden, Netherlands). The research articles were classified according to the hierarchical scale of diagnostic efficacy. Results Of the 236 articles included, most were from South Korea and Brazil. Bong-Hae Cho and Yun-Hoa Jung were the most prolific authors on the topic of CBCT. The most frequently published types of studies were cross-sectional and laboratory-based. The most popular topics WERE related to the diagnosis of pathologies and/or alterations, as well as anatomical variations. On the diagnostic efficacy scale, most studies were rated level 1 (technical efficacy) or 2 (diagnostic accuracy efficacy). Conclusion A steady increase was observed in publications related to CBCT, which are of both clinical and academic interest. The trends in these publications were analyzed, revealing that most are cross-sectional studies primarily exploring the capabilities of CBCT in diagnosing pathologies and/or changes in the oral and maxillofacial complex. These studies were typically classified as level 1 or 2 on the diagnostic efficacy scale.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE?: Dalbavancin is used against gram-positive pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus in acute bacterial skin and skin-structure infections. METHODS: Our main goal was to identify the key articles sustaining the current knowledge of this drug's therapeutic possibilities through a bibliometric analysis of the available literature. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: On 15 March 2021, we searched the Web of Science electronically for documents that contain within its title the term "dalbavancin." We found a total of 675 documents that average 20.23 citations/publication with a density of 682.60 citations per/year, yielding an h-index of 58. After ranking them by the number of times cited, we extracted the top 100 most-cited records (T100). Number of citations/publication ranged from 13 to 231, publication years were 2002-2019, with the top-cited article published in 2014. All T100 publications were written in English. JMI Laboratories was the institution with the most articles in the T100 (22 documents), and the United States was the top country (75 documents). Five authors participated in at least five of the T100, led by Jones RN with 20 articles. Positions #1, #2, #5, and #9 were clinical trials for acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI), the on-label indication for dalbavancin. Only one article in the top 10 (T10) was an off-label indication that was published in 2005 with 186 citations, and occupied the third position among the T100. Using the VOSviewer© programme, we observed that the most used keywords were: dalbavancin, lipoglycopeptide, gram-positive, osteomyelitis, vancomycin, and MRSA. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSIONS?: Our study identifies the most significant research on dalbavancin, including the highest impact publications, and highlights the recent trend of dalbavancin in new therapies. The T10 articles include the most important dalbavancin clinical trials, along with other studies and reviews that support the growing role of this antibiotic in clinical use. Emphasis has been on the favourable pharmacokinetic profile that allows administration once-weekly, with minimal risk of severe adverse events.

Abstract
Familial gigantiform cementoma (FGC) is a rare benign fibro-cementum lesion, which follows an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern and presents during childhood. It is limited to the bones of the face, with a predilection for the jaw, is fast growing and painless and expands considerably over time. It is considered among the seven disorders that affect the physiognomy of the craniofacial skeleton. Radiographically, FGC occurs in three stages of maturation similar to bone dysplasia, being radiolucent, mixed and radiopaque and is described as a mixed lobular well delimited mass, which can occur in both maxillae, causing expansion of the buccal and palatal / lingual bone cortices. displacement and retention of teeth. The aim of this study was to perform a review of the literature to identify the clinical, radiographic and histopathological characteristics of FGC in the jaws and describe the imaging tools that are useful for the diagnosis and follow-up of this lesion.

Abstract
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides multiplanar cross-sectional imaging and three-dimensional reconstructions and can be used intraoperatively in a hybrid operating room. In this study, we investigated the feasibility of using a CBCT-scanner for detecting residual stones during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Intraoperative CBCT-scans were made during PCNL procedures from November 2018 until March 2019 in a university hospital. At the point where the urologist would have otherwise ended the procedure, a CBCT-scan was made to image any residual fragments that could not be detected by either nephroscopy or conventional C-arm fluoroscopy. Residual fragments that were visualized on the CBCT-scan were attempted to be extracted additionally. To evaluate the effect of this additional extraction, each CBCT-scan was compared with a regular follow-up CT-scan that was made 4 weeks postoperatively. A total of 19 procedures were analyzed in this study. The mean duration of performing the CBCT-scan, including preparation and interpretation, was 8 min. Additional stone extraction, if applicable, had a mean duration of 11 min. The mean effective dose per CBCT-scan was 7.25 mSv. Additional extraction of residual fragments as imaged on the CBCT-scan occurred in nine procedures (47%). Of the follow-up CT-scans, 63% showed a stone-free status as compared to 47% of the intraoperative CBCT-scans. We conclude that the use of CBCT for the detection of residual stones in PCNL is meaningful, safe, and feasible.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Phase contrast MR imaging is a rapid and non-invasive technique which is sensitive in diagnosis and follow-up of different neurological diseases that cause CSF flow abnormality. MRI CSF flowmetry will be currently assessed in different neurological diseases that may cause CSF flow abnormalities.
Results
This study includes 39 patients with their ages ranging from 1 to 65 years; they were referred from the neurology department, with nine individuals of matched age and sex as a control group. Based on clinical history and conventional MRI, patients were subdivided into five subgroups; normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH), hydrocephalus, idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), brain atrophy (BA), and Chiari malformation type I (CM-I). All patients and control were subjected to MRI CSF flowmetry evaluation with stress on peak diastolic velocity (PDV), peak systolic velocity (PSV), stroke volume (SV), and maximum velocity (Vmax). PDV, PSV, and SV were found significantly higher in NPH, CM-I, and hydrocephalus compared to control (4.2, 4.96, and 83.23 for NPH; 3.95, 4.93, and 37.38 for CM-I; and 4.2, 5.6, and 125 in hydrocephalus versus 2.11, 2.73, and 75.33 in control, respectively; P = 0.0004, 0.0008, and 0.0009 for NPH; 0.03, 0.003, and 0.06 for CM-I; and 0.0005, 0.0002, and 0.0003, respectively). On the other hand, patients with BA showed significantly lower values (1.37, 1.66, and 1.53, respectively) compared to control (P = 0.001, 0.001, and 0.004, respectively).
Conclusion
MRI CSF flowmetry provides an easy, accurate, and non-invasive method for diagnosis of different neurological diseases that cause CSF flow abnormality. Moreover, this diagnostic modality could be helpful in selecting the therapeutic option.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Education in oral imaging diagnosis is provided early in most dental curricula worldwide. Stressing the importance of clinical and radiographic information for oral diagnosis is of utmost importance for dental students. In this context, active learning methods, such as case-based learning (CBL), represent contemporary tools in the armamentarium of dental education. This study aimed to investigate (a) dental students' perceptions on CBL and (b) the importance of clinical data for image-based diagnosis. METHODS Fifteen cases of bone lesions were presented to 56 undergraduate students; group 1 (n = 24) was provided with the imaging data alone from each case, while group 2 (n = 32) received clinical information followed by the imaging data. Students' performance and perception on the teaching approach were assessed using a structured questionnaire. Their differential diagnoses for each of the lesions figured as variables to be compared with the known diagnosis. RESULTS All the students reported a positive experience with the case-based teaching method and confirmed this approach as a valuable tool in dental education. The diagnosis of a simple bone cyst, a periapical cyst or an ameloblastoma improved when they were provided with clinical data prior to the complementary images. No significant difference was detected, however, when the total amount of correct diagnoses were combined together and compared between groups (P > .05). CONCLUSION Case-based learning was corroborated as an optimal method for educating undergraduate dental students. Clinical data might contribute to diagnostic imaging, especially regarding lesions with multiple differential diagnoses.

Abstract
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a rare neurological condition caused by low cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume, most commonly due to a CSF leak. The most common presenting symptom is an orthostatic headache, but some patients may present with atypical neurological manifestations such as cranial nerve palsies, an altered mental status, and movement disorders, which complicate the clinical diagnosis. Therefore, the diagnosis is based on the combination of clinical signs and symptoms, neuroimaging, and/or a low cerebrospinal fluid pressure. In this review, we describe the wide variety of neurological manifestations and complications seen in patients with SIH as well as the most common features described on imaging studies, including both subjective and objective measurements, in order to lead the clinician to a correct diagnosis. The prompt and correct management of patients with SIH will help prevent the development of life-threatening complications, such as subdural hematomas, cerebral venous thrombosis, and coma, and avoid unnecessary invasive procedures.
