Two-year outcomes following the adjunctive use of InGaAsP and Er,Cr:YSGG lasers in nonsurgical periodontal therapy in patients with stages III and IV periodontitis.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical outcomes 2 years after the adjunctive use of an InGaAsP diode and Er,Cr:YSGG laser for nonsurgical treatment of severe periodontitis.

Method And Materials: Forty-two patients (45.31 ± 9.

Monitored needle acceleration in endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration of solid pancreatic masses improves sample quality and diagnostic accuracy: a randomized trial.

BACKGROUND : Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is recommended for the diagnosis of solid pancreatic masses. We aimed to evaluate whether a high needle movement acceleration value during puncture increases diagnostic accuracy. METHODS : EUS-FNA needle acceleration was measured using a PocketLab accelerometer connected by Bluetooth to a smartphone.

Adjunctive use of InGaAsP and Er,Cr:YSGG lasers in nonsurgical periodontal therapy: a randomized controlled clinical study.

Objective: To evaluate clinically and microbiologically the outcomes following the combined application of InGaAsP diode laser and Er,Cr:YSGG laser for nonsurgical treatment of chronic periodontitis (ChP).

Method And Materials: Forty-two patients (age 45.31 ± 9.
