Comparison of Urinary Biomarkers in Diagnosis of Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction and Differentiation from Nonobstructive Dilatation.

Background And Aims: Differentiation of nonobstructive dilatation (NOD) from ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is a challenge in children with antenatally detected hydronephrosis. The aim of this study is to compare the utility of urinary biomarkers: carbohydrate antigen (CA 19-9), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and kidney injury molecule (KIM) in diagnosing UPJO.

Methods: A prospective study was conducted after obtaining ethical clearance between 2021 and 2022.

Comparison of Antibacterial Activity of Various Additives to Glass Ionomer Restoration: An Study.

Introduction: Glass-ionomer (GIC) cement was introduced in 1972 as a "new filling material of dentistry". It is bioactive and plays an important role in caries prevention due to its ability to release fluoride into the oral environment and remineralization of dental hard tissues. However, its properties such as moisture sensitivity, wear resistance, and bond strength are not sufficient to inflict the antimicrobial environment.
