Review Meta AnalysisEffects of Exercise-based Management on Motor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease - A Meta-analysis.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurological illness after Alzheimer's disease. According to research, medication alone can give palliative alleviation; however, freezing of gait (FOG) and balance can be treated with physical therapy. This meta-analysis aims to bridge gaps about exercise-based therapy's impact on balance and FOG in patients with PD. ⋯ The fixed effect model of FOG in terms of SMD was used to draw the pooled effects of FOG in terms of SMD and FOG in terms of SMD (0.21; 95 percent CI -0.01 to 0.44; p=0.06). According to this research, several physiotherapy approaches such as exergaming, gamepad systems, virtual reality, gait exercises, and core training, help Parkinson's patients regain balance and FOG. Key Words: Parkinson's disease, Physical therapy techniques, Neurological rehabilitation, Balance, Freezing of gait, Motor symptoms.

3D Printing Technology with Reverse Guide Design in Autogenous Tooth Transplantation: An in vitro Pictorial Report.
The success of autologous tooth transplantation depends on the activity of the periodontal ligament of the donor tooth. Its activity decreases with a longer exposure time. In order to reduce the exposure time of the donor tooth and quickly prepare the alveolar fossa highly matching with the donor tooth root, the clinical data of cone-beam CT (CBCT) was imported into Mimics 21.0 software in this study to obtain three-dimensional (3D) images of the jaw tissue structure. ⋯ The maximum width deviation is 2.88 mm due to the tilt of the roots. With a high matching degree to the donor tooth root, it needs further and larger clinical studies. Key Words: CBCT, Tooth autotransplantation, 3D printing technology, Computer-aided imaging, Periodontal ligament.
