Article Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the seating accuracy of resin composite CAD/CAM overlay restorations, employing various preparation designs and luting materials (pre-heated composite (HC) or resin cement (RC)).
Methods: A human molar's STL file was utilized to create 100 3D-printed resin tooth replicas, randomly distributed into 5 groups (n = 20) based on finishing line preparation designs: 1) Rounded shoulder above the dental equator - DE (SA); 2) Chamfer above the DE (CA); 3) Butt joint above the DE (BJ); 4) Rounded shoulder below the DE (SB); 5) Chamfer below the DE (CB). Digital impressions were acquired for all replicas, and restorations milled using Tetric CAD (Ivoclar Vivadent). The restorations were luted with HC (Tetric Prime, Ivoclar Vivadent) or RC (RelyX Universal, 3 M). Seating accuracy was evaluated through digital scans during try-in without any luting agent and post-cementation using a 3D analysis software (Geomagic wrap, 3D Systems). Data were statistically analyzed using Two-Way ANOVA (p < 0.05).
Results: The type of luting material (RC vs HC), preparation design, and their interactions significantly impacted 3D seating of the restorations (p < 0.001). HC exhibited higer volumetric increase than RC. BJ and CA designs consistently demonstrated superior seating accuracy, irrespective of the luting material used.
Conclusions: The utilization of pre-heated composite resin could negatively influence the seating of overlay restorations, probably due to its higher viscosity when compared to the resin cement. However, when HC is selected as luting agent, preparation designs lacking internal angles are recommended for enhancing the precision of overlays seating.

Introduction: Research on listening to podcasts while driving suggested no significant difference compared to undistracted listening. However, these studies were conducted in non-controlled driving environments, limiting the evaluation of the environment's impact. This study aimed to compare knowledge acquisition and retention among resident physicians and undergraduate students while listening to medical education podcasts in a controlled, simulator-based, driving environment versus an undistracted listening condition.

Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) promises to turn digital cameras into medical devices with the measurement of heart rates, oxygen saturation and the diagnosis arrhythmias already demonstrated. The face-centric nature of current rPPG techniques limits open-datasets from including subjects with clinically-relevant cardiorespiratory conditions without sharing private medical information. The neck, with few identifiable characteristics, is well suited to overcoming this limitation, as it serves as a region of interest (ROI) for pulse detection during jugular venous examination, a common clinical technique.

The differential Fick method is well established for measuring effective pulmonary blood flow (EPBF) and cardiac output (CO) but until now it has only been used for patients on mechanical ventilation. Here we present and evaluate a new approach adapted to spontaneous breathing situations. Ten healthy subjects with diverse anthropometric and respiratory parameters were studied in the sitting position.

Statement Of Problem: Immediate implant and interim restoration placement in the maxillary anterior esthetic zone presents challenges in achieving optimal implant positioning, esthetics, and peri-implant tissue stability. A more accurate and efficient clinical workflow is needed to address these demands.
Purpose: This study aimed to establish a fully digital workflow that combines autonomous robotic-assisted immediate implant placement and prefabricated interim restorations in the maxillary anterior esthetic region and to evaluate its accuracy and short-term clinical outcomes.
