Giant prostatic calculus in patient treated with perineal prostatotomy: case report.

Background: Urolithiasis (kidney stone) is a common condition that often leads patients to urgent or emergency care services. Urinary calculi are generally found in the kidneys, ureters, or bladder. Urethral calculi are uncommon and can result from the migration of a calculus in the upper urinary tract or vesicle or may be primary of the urethra.

The interaction between third molars and surrounding periapical tissues in mandibular stress distribution during high-impact trauma: a finite element study.

Background: The presence of mandibular third molars has been associated with the risk of mandibular fractures, highlighting the need for comprehensive studies considering the interaction with other mandibular structures. This study investigates how mandibular third molars and neighboring tissues can influence the structural fragility of the mandible using finite element analysis.

Material And Methods: A finite element analysis study following the guidelines proposed by RIFEM 1.

Postoperative pain in primary root canal treatments after Er: YAG laser-activated irrigation: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

This systematic review aimed to compare postoperative pain in endodontic treatments using PIPS Er: YAG laser-activated irrigation (LAI) versus conventional needle irrigation. An electronic search was conducted to identify randomized clinical trials (RCT) investigating postoperative pain in patients who underwent root canal treatments in permanent teeth using PIPS Er: YAG laser-activated irrigation or conventional needle irrigation. Two reviewers performed study selection, data extraction, risk of bias assessment (RoB 2.

Effects of periodontal disease on the proteomic profile of the periodontal ligament.

Periodontal disease affects over 1 billion people globally. This study investigated how periodontitis affects the protein profile of the periodontal ligament (PDL) in rats. Eight Holtzman rats were divided into the control and experimental periodontitis groups.

Single-Leg Balance and Lower Limb Strength: Quantitative Analysis with the Balance Master System.

: This study investigates the relationship between lower limb strength and postural stability in single-leg stance using the Balance Master system. : The research involved 64 participants divided into sedentary and physically active groups based on metabolic equivalents of task (METs) values, normal weight, overweight, and obese according to body composition. Postural control was evaluated using the Sensory Organization Test.
