The effect of four different intracanal medicaments on the push-out bond strength of root canal sealers.

This study aimed to compare the effect of 4 different intracanal medicaments on the push-out bond strength of two sealers (AH Plus and MTA Fillapex). 100 single-rooted extracted premolar teeth were divided into 5 groups, with 20 samples in each group, one group being the control group. After cleaning and shaping procedures, the canals were filled with 4 different medicaments: calcium hydroxide, tri-antibiotic paste (TAP), Metapex, or Chlorhexidine (2%) gel for 2 weeks.

Clinical Islet Transplantation for Adults With Type 1 Diabetes in Canada: Referral Patterns and Eligibility Assessment.

We sought to describe the pattern of referrals to our centre and the most common factors determining eligibility for CIT.
