1. 1. Difference in Marginal Bone Loss Around Implants Between ShortImplant-Supported Partial Fixed Prostheses With and Without Cantilever : A Retrospective Clinical Study

   University essay from Malmö universitet/Odontologiska fakulteten (OD)

   Author : Josef Al-Kilani; Sedef Al-Kilani; [2023]
   Keywords : Implant-supported fixed partial prosthesis; cantilever; marginal bone loss;

   Abstract : Abstract  Objective:The aim of this retrospective study was to examine the influence of a cantilever on marginal bone loss (MBL) around dental implants supporting 3-unit partial fixed prostheses.  Materials and methods:Retrospective data were collected from dental records of patients at a specialist clinic in Malmö, Sweden, covering the period from 1980 to 2018.

3. 2. Real-time Control Modelling and Output Signal Data Analysis Based on the Stewart Platform

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Junhao Cui; [2022]
   Keywords : Prosthesis; Stewart platform; Simulation; PID control; Kalman filter; Protes; Stewart-plattform; Simulering; PID-kontroll; Kalman-filter;

   Abstract : Around 40 million people around the world have amputated parts of their bodies. Prostheses are widely used to support their daily behavior. However, about 35% of amputees refuse to use the prostheses due to comfort problems. SocketSense is an EU research project that aims to improve the situation. READ MORE

4. 3. FPGA implementation of an sEMG classifier

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : William Marnfeldt; [2022]
   Keywords : electromyography; convolutional neural networks; classifier; field programmable gate array; prosthetic hand; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This master’s thesis discusses the implementation of a convolutional neural network on a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). It deals with implementation be describing a tool chain, starting with the designing of a model in Keras, transforming the model to Hardware Descriptive Language, and finally implementing it on an FPGA.

5. 4. An alignment tool for prosthetic components : A conceptual development

   University essay from Jönköping University/HHJ, Avd. för rehabilitering

   Author : Robin Johansson; [2022]
   Keywords : Prosthetics; alignment; malalignment; misalignment; artificial limb; design; product development.; Protes; uppställning; inställning; felställning; konstgjord kroppsdel; design; produktutveckling;

   Abstract : Prosthetic alignment is the principle of the position and orientation and of the components in a lower limb prosthesis to achieve desirable biomechanical characteristics. Poor alignment of lower limb prostheses is related to decreased balance, knee and hip arthritis, and higher energy expenditure for the user. READ MORE

6. 5. Implant and prosthesis failure rates with implant-supported mandibular overdentures: a systematic review

   University essay from Malmö universitet/Odontologiska fakulteten (OD)

   Author : Anas Tawfig; Zaid Al-Jasim; [2022]
   Keywords : implant-supported mandibular overdentures; failure rates;

   Abstract : Purpose The purpose of the present study was to assess the clinical outcomes of mandibular overdentures supported by dental implants (ISMO - implant-supported mandibular overdenture) based on a systematic review of the literature.   Materials and methods An electronic search, limited to studies published between 2018-2021, was performed in three databases, supplemented by hand searching of selected journals.
