We aim to evaluate risk factors for postpartum ED visits and readmissions for hypertension.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to quantify the effect of five different root canal preparation instruments on Substance P (SP), Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and their receptors expression in healthy human periodontal ligament.
Methodology: STROBE guidelines were used to design a study using 60 periodontal ligament samples obtained from healthy lower premolars where extraction was indicated for orthodontic reasons. Prior to extraction 40 of these premolars were equally divided into four groups and root canals were prepared using different systems: Mtwo, Reciproc Blue, HyFlex EDM and Plex-V.

Background: This systematic review investigated the effectiveness, efficiency and apical extrusion of the debris of two rotary and two reciprocating single-file systems used for the removal of filling material from straight root canals.
Material And Methods: A literature search was performed in the Medline, ISI Web of Science, and Scopus databases for relevant articles matching the keyword search strategy. Effectiveness was determined with studies dealing with the ability of the instruments to remove filling material from root canals.
