    Prosthetic complications with dental implants: a bibliometric analysis of 20 top-cited articles
    Pakistan Medical Association ; 2023

    Abstract: The purpose of this review was to explore the 20 most cited articles on prosthetic complications with dental implants. Identification of such articles could be helpful in prosthodontics residency programmes in devising the curriculum of essential reading material in implantology. The Institute for Scientific Information, Web of Science Database, and Google Scholar were used to identify the 20 top-cited articles published in journals from 1980 till June 2021. These articles were then evaluated according to the number of citations, authors, study design, publication year, and publishing journal. Descriptive statistics were computed for bibliometrics. It was observed that the citation count ranged from 6,391 to 315 (in descending order). The Toronto study is the most cited study on dental implant prosthetic complications. Prospective studies and systematic and narrative reviews were the predominant study designs used in the articles; however, alarmingly no randomised controlled trials were included in the list.

    Oral Maxillofacial Surgical residency and its impact on the academic and research productivity at different levels in Pakistan
    Pakistan Medical Association ; 2022

    Abstract: Oral and maxillofacial (OMF) surgery is a unique speciality. In many countries, OMFS is a dental speciality but the scope of its practice significantly overlaps with other specialities, including otolaryngology, head and neck surgery, plastic surgery, and orthopaedics. Thus, OMF surgery represents a true amalgamation of medical and dental specialities. There are different requirements of OMF residency training, which include a dental undergraduate training, medical training, or both. The training pathways for this speciality have evolved much in the last three decades and there is still no consensus over a single uniform path of becoming an OMF surgeon. An OMF surgeon deals with trauma, cysts, tumours and other pathologies of the maxilla, mandible, and zygomatic complex that need surgical correction. In addition to being a diverse speciality, ---Continue

    Abstract: Hunter syndrome (mucopolysaccharidosis type II) has the highest reported prevalence of difficult tracheal intubation among the seven known types of mucopolysaccharidoses. Despite improved difficult airway guidelines and equipment, conventional approaches may fail in some cases. A 10-year-old child with Hunter syndrome, was scheduled for multiple dental extractions. On the first visit, failed intubation was declared as per Difficult Airway Society guidelines in the surgical day-care suite of our institute and the procedure was postponed. The case was then planned to be handled in the main operating room with additional preparation and input from the paediatric otolaryngologist for possible tracheostomy, paediatric intensive care for postoperative need for ventilation, and difficult airway resource faculty for an unconventional approach—videolaryngoscope combined with fibreoptic bronchoscope—which resulted in safe administration of anaesthesia. This case illustrates the importance of meticulous planning in the management of previously failed airway.

    Abstract: Abstract Dental extraction of abscessed or infected teeth before cardiac operation is frequently advocated to lower the risk of infections especially infective endocarditis. The scientific evidence that supports dental procedures before cardio-valvular surgery is however limited. The aim of the present paper was to explore whether there are any protocols for patients needing dental treatment before cardiac operations. Moreover, we have discussed the real life challenges encountered in the management of such patients. Continuous....

    Is there a difference between disease-free survival of oral squamous cell carcinoma referred by dentists versus other physicians? -A systematic review
    Pakistan Medical Association ; 2023

    In: Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association, Pakistan Medical Association, Vol. 73, No. 10 ( 2023-09-13), p. 2036-2040
    Abstract: Objectives: To compare disease-free survival rates in oral squamous cell carcinoma patients initially attended to and referred by dentists versus other physicians. Methods: The systematic review was conducted after registration with the International prospective register of systematic reviews at the University of York, the United Kingdom, and comprised search on Medline, PubMed, Cochrane and CINAHAL Plus databases for studies published up to December 2021.  The Population-Intervention-Comparison-Outcomes-Study criteria was used to search for studies involving patients diagnosed with oral squamous cell carcinoma receiving referrals by dentist or by other healthcare providers. Disease-free survival of patients was taken as the main outcome. Customized data collection proforma was used to record data in line with the Preferred Reporting Items in Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. Data was subjected to systematic, qualitative review. Results: Of the 344 studies found, 8(2.3%) were analysed in detail. Patients referred by dentists ranged from 22.6% to 54%. Males comprised 53% to 70.3% of the sample. The highest number of referrals was made by primary physicians, ranging from 27.4% to 71.6%. Upto 67.6% cases were diagnosed with stage 1 and 2 oral cancer. The highest 5-year survival rate was 75% in a study where 59% patients were diagnosed at an early stage of disease. Conclusion: The relative scarcity of studies makes it impossible to draw an association between oral cancer survival rate and type of referral. Key Words: Oral squamous cell carcinoma, Cancer-free survival, Early detection, Referrals.

    Abstract: The novel-coronavirus (2019-nCOV) emerged in Wuhan City in December 2019, this resulted in a quick and catastrophic health problem all over the world but our country is slightly less affected by the pandemic. There could be a number of reasons for less numbers of Covid positive cases and lack of awareness and reduced Covid testing capacity and hence less mortality in Pakistan. In order to provide assistance to an ever increasing number of infected patients and, at the same time taking care of urgent maxillofacial conditions. This manuscript gives the reader in a nutshell the overall surgical experience of oral and maxillofacial practice at Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, Pakistan in the COVID-19 pandemic and would like to provide a number of recommendations that would assist the scheduling process of surgical management during the COVID-19 pandemic and reduce the risk of infection among healthcare workers and others involved with the service.

    Abstract: To determine the frequency of needle stick injury in dental practice and to evaluate the level of knowledge, attitude and practices of the dental students and dentists regarding needle stick injuries prevention. Materials and methods This descriptive cross-sectional study was undertaken at eight different institutes of Karachi from July 2014 to March 2015. Data were collected in 800-sample questionnaire forms that comprised of ten questions in English language. Questionnaire was designed to obtain information regarding frequency, awareness and prevention of needle stick injury. Data were entered and analyzed in Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 20. Result A total of 800 samples were returned with a 100% response rate. About 73% participants gave a history of needle stick injury during practice. Of these 42% were the house officers. It was reported that knowledge regarding vaccination against hepatitis B was prevalent among participants. Most of the participants agreed that they have received guidelines regarding prevention and protection from needle stick injury. Conclusion It was concluded from this study that hepatitis B vaccination is necessary to prevent needle stick injury and proper instruments/guidelines should be given to all health related professionals in order to minimize the risk of bloodborne infections through needle stick injury.

    Abstract: We present a case of nasopalatine duct cyst in a 35-year-old female. The cyst was diagnosed based on the presence of only one clinical symptom and no obvious clinical signs, which is a relatively rare occurrence. However, the radiographic and histological presentation of this lesion was typical of a nasopalatine duct cyst. Therefore, this case report aims to highlight the variable presentations of the nasopalatine cyst, which is often misdiagnosed and treated as an endodontic infection. Key words: Nasopalatine cyst, Incisive canal cyst, Cone-beam computed tomography, Non-odontogenic cyst.
