Transcrestal sinus floor elevation (tSFE) is a useful method for vertical bone augmentation in the posterior maxilla at the time of implant placement. However, this is a blind surgical technique with a risk of perforating the Schneiderian membrane. In this article, we present a simple technique to perform tSFEs using ridge spreaders.

Skeletal remains are among the most challenging forensic samples, and when extracting DNA from them, destructive grinding is usually employed to obtain a sufficient quantity of DNA. When identifying skeletonized remains, a nondestructive extraction method is of great importance, and undamaged skeletal remains should be returned to relatives after identification due to ethical issues. Teeth are a good source of DNA, which can be found in dental pulp, dentin, and cementum.

Background: Scaphoid fractures are a common, yet challenging, injury to treat. The mini-open dorsal approach to the scaphoid is a simple, yet effective, approach that allows for improved visualization and more accurate screw placement in the setting of scaphoid fracture fixation.
Description: An approximately 2-cm longitudinal incision is made centered over the dorsal radiocarpal joint, just ulnar to the Lister tubercle.

In order to precisely obtain the magnitude and orientation of in-situ stress in coal mine roadway, the principle and calculation method of hydraulic fracturing technique for in-situ stress with two arbitrary holes were established in this study. Deriving from the basic principle of the traditional hydraulic fracturing in-situ stress testing, this method, based on the basic data of in-situ stress measured from two arbitrary test holes, performed three stress equivalent transformations following the stress transformation formula in elasticity mechanics. The results suggest that all six stress values representing the stress state at a point were accurately obtained after mechanical and mathematical derivation.

Background: Endoscopic decompression of lumbar spinal stenosis has been gaining popularity as the least invasive of several minimally invasive surgical treatment options. This procedure offers similar outcomes to those of conventional open procedures; however, endoscopic procedures are technically demanding and involve a substantial learning curve. The typical endoscopic approach is a "uni-portal" approach that utilizes a special spinal endoscope and endoscopic instruments.
