An Exploratory Study of Community Mobility in Adults With Multiple Sclerosis Across Different Ambulation Levels.

Background: The purpose of this study was to identify differences in community mobility in adults with multiple sclerosis (MS) at various ambulation levels.

Methods: Seventy-one adults with MS completed a survey about their mobility impairment and avoidance of challenging mobility tasks. Individuals were categorized as having mild, moderate, or severe gait impairment.

Predicting falls in adults with multiple sclerosis using patient-reported measures: Are perceptions of dual-tasking missing?

Background: Mobility challenges and cognitive impairments prominent in adults with multiple sclerosis (MS) significantly increase the risk of falling. Examining perceptions of how the simultaneous performance of completing motor and cognitive tasks impacts fall risk may have clinical utility. The purpose of this study was to identify the most significant self-reported predictors of falling including perceived dual-tasking.

A clinical approach strategy for the diagnosis, treatment and evaluation of external cervical resorption.

Aim: To propose a clinical approach strategy on the diagnosis, treatment and evaluation of external cervical tooth resorption (ECR) cases. To investigate and discuss the outcome of this approach.

Methodology: A clinical approach strategy on ECR was developed based on a retrospective observation study of 542 teeth.

Is Hypoxia Related to External Cervical Resorption? A Case Report.

Despite the fact that external cervical resorption (ECR) is a well-known and rather frequently met condition, the driving force of this phenomenon still remains unclear. Recently, hypoxia has been linked to ECR. Thus, the aim of this work was to investigate the existence of hypoxia in ECR and hypothesize on its role at the time of extraction.

Descriptive Analysis of Factors Associated with External Cervical Resorption.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to perform a descriptive analysis of the occurrence of external cervical resorption (ECR) in relation to the patients' characteristics (sex, age, and tooth type) and the potentially involved predisposing factors.

Methods: This study includes data on 284 patients (337 teeth with evidence of ECR) referred to the University Hospital Leuven (Leuven, Belgium) and Endo Rotterdam (Rotterdam, the Netherlands) for diagnosis and treatment from 2010 to 2015. The medical history, existing radiographs, and dental records were available for evaluation.
