Intraoperative Surgical Navigation Is as Effective as Conventional Surgery for Zygomaticomaxillary Complex Fracture Reduction.

: Zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fractures are the second most common of all facial bone fractures, and conventional treatment represents a challenge even for experienced surgeons. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to compare Intraoperative Surgical Navigation (ISN) with conventional surgery in the treatment of ZMC fractures. : We reported our systematic review and meta-analysis based on the recommendation of the PRISMA 2020 guideline.

Maternal factors increase risk of orofacial cleft: a meta-analysis.

Orofacial clefts are among the most prevalent birth defects, with severe medical and psychosocial consequences. Cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL ± P) and cleft palate only (CPO) affect on average nearly 1/700 births worldwide. The cause of most non-syndromic cases is unknown.

Maternal factors in the origin of cleft lip/cleft palate: A population-based case-control study.

Objectives: Orofacial clefts are among the most common birth defects, with an estimated worldwide incidence of around 1.5-1.7 per 1000 live-born babies.
