Osteomyelitis of the Jaw in COVID-19 Patients: A Rare Condition With a High Risk for Severe Complications.

Osteomyelitis of the jaw is an uncommon infection that arises from the flora of the oral cavity or sinuses and affects immunocompromised and polymorbid patients. Treatment includes surgical debridement and long regiments of broad-spectrum antibiotics. We present three cases of complicated jaw osteomyelitis presented with concurrent COVID-19 infection, including only two reported cases of odontogenic COVID-related osteomyelitis.

Advances in neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (Review).

PURPOSE: Identifying factors that affect recovery or restoration of neurological function is a key goal of rehabilitation in neurology and ophthalmology. One such factor can be prolonged mental stress, which may be not only the consequence of nervous system damage but also a major risk factor, or cause, of neural inactivation. Using the visual system as a model of neural injury, we wished to study how patients' stress and personality profiles correlate with vision recovery as induced by therapy with alternating current stimulation (ACS) in patients with optic nerve damage.

Human Amniotic Membrane Dressing as a Non-Surgical Alternative for Extensive Chronic Ulcers: A Comparative Case Study.

Chronic wound management remains a significant clinical challenge, requiring adaptive therapeutic approaches to achieve wound closure that nonetheless frequently prove fruitless. Balancing the initial pro-inflammatory response with debris removal and tissue rebuilding remains elusive in most cases, leading to pain, drastic quality-of-life deterioration, and, eventually, amputation. Meanwhile, patient adherence is an overarching theme. Furthermore, non-surgical alternatives that effectively promote tissue rebuilding are essential for patients seeking to avoid further invasive procedures. We rep
