The challenge of endosseous implants placed in the posterior partially edentulous maxilla: a clinical report.
The survival rate of implants placed in the maxillary molar area in a 2-stage procedure was evaluated. Between 1990 and 1997, 60 consecutive patients (32 females and 28 males, mean age 51 years) received 87 implants to replace missing maxillary molar teeth. Radiographs were evaluated preoperatively for bone quantity (mesiodistal width, potential implant length not compromising the integrity of adjacent vital structures). Second-stage surgery was performed in a mean of 7.9 months postimplantation. The 5-year cumulative implant survival rate and the influence of implant characteristics (type, length, diameter, and coating) on implant failure and complication rates (between the 2 stages of surgery) were evaluated. The total 5-year cumulative survival rate was 95.4% (4 implants were lost). There were a total of 17 "complications" (premature spontaneous implant exposure) in non-failing implants, 11 with high and 6 with flat cover screws, respectively. Implantation in the edentulous maxillary molar area is a predictable procedure with a considerably high survival rate. The type of implant cover screw used can affect the complication rate.

Longitudinal study of magnesium status of Israeli military recruits.
The following study was conducted to assess the biochemical and nutritional status of new military recruits during 12 weeks of strenuous physical activity. Calorie and magnesium (Mg) intake, energy expenditure, and serum, red blood cell (RBC) and mononuclear cell (MNC) Mg were assessed at the start, after 6 weeks and after 12 weeks of training. The results provide evidence that MNC Mg content decreases, whereas serum Mg increases, under prolonged, strenuous training conditions in previously unconditioned military recruits. Mg dietary intake alone could not account for these changes. It is postulated that this decrease in MNC Mg (from 64.76 +/- 34.99 to 23.81 +/- 15.55 fg/cell), unparalleled by similar changes in serum Mg or RBC Mg, reflects a reduction in exchangeable Mg body stores, and the onset of a Mg deficiency state.
