Nonsurgical Endodontic Management of Nonperforating Internal Root Resorption in a Maxillary Central Incisor: A Case Report with a 4-Year Follow-Up.

Internal root resorption (IRR) commonly occurs as a single oval-shaped defect radiographically; however, variation like bilocular IRR defect is rarely reported in the literature. This case report presents a 28-year-old male patient who reported with pain of dull nature, in his front upper tooth for the past 1 week. He reported with a history of trauma 8 years back.

Performance analysis of base-isolated structures in mitigating underground blast-induced ground motion effects: A parametric study.

This study delves into mitigating ground motion induced by underground blasts on superstructures. A parametric analysis is conducted to assess the performance of base isolated structures under different blast scenarios. The analysis is conducted using Newmark's time step integration method, and the absolute acceleration of the structure and displacement of the isolator bearing are calculated to evaluate the response.

Impact of bisphenol A and analogues eluted from resin-based dental materials on cellular and molecular processes: An insight on underlying toxicity mechanisms.

Dental resin systems, used for artificial replacement of teeth and their surrounding structures, have gained popularity due to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) recommendation to reduce dental amalgam use in high-risk populations and medical circumstances. Bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine-disrupting chemical, is an essential monomer within dental resin in the form of various analogues and derivatives. Leaching of monomers from resins results in toxicity, affecting hormone metabolism and causing long-term health risks.

Chitosan-Based Biomaterial in Wound Healing: A Review.

Wound healing is an evolving and intricate technique that is vital to the restoration of tissue integrity and function. Over the past few decades, chitosan a biopolymer derived from chitin, became known as an emerging biomaterial in the field of healing wounds due to its distinctive characteristics including biocompatibility, biodegradability, affinity to biomolecules, and wound-healing activity. This natural polymer exhibits excellent healing capabilities by accelerating the development of new skin cells, reducing inflammation, and preventing infections.

Diabetic Gastroparesis and its Emerging Therapeutic Options: A Narrative Review of the Literature.

Diabetic gastroparesis (DG) is one of the many complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). Even though this condition surfaces years after uncontrolled disease, it affects the quality of life in several ways and causes significant morbidity. Common symptoms experienced by the patients include postprandial nausea, vomiting, abdominal fullness, and pain.
