Development trends and knowledge framework of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in oncology by years: a bibliometric analysis from 1992 to 2022.

Purpose: Oncology is the primary field in medicine with a high rate of artificial intelligence (AI) use. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the trends of AI in oncology, evaluating the bibliographic characteristics of articles. We evaluated the related research on the knowledge framework of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in Oncology through bibliometrics analysis and explored the research hotspots and current status from 1992 to 2022.

Effect of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate Apical Plug Thickness on Fracture Resistance of Immature Teeth.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth after using different thicknesses of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) apical plugs.

Methods: Fifty-two human maxillary anterior teeth were used. Five teeth were the positive control group; they were prepared using Peeso reamers to simulate immature teeth without any access cavity preparation.

Impact of the intensity of microemboli on neurocognitive outcome following cardiopulmonary bypass.

Background: This study aimed to determine whether there was any association between the intensity of intraoperative gaseous microembolic signals (GME), neuropsychological testing and clinical outcome in high-risk patients undergoing coronary artery surgery (CABG).

Methods: Over a 6-month period, GME activity was monitored in 102 Euroscore 6+ patients during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with a conventional 32-micron arterial filter by non-invasive, real-time ultrasonic device. Cognitive tests; line bisection, the Stroop test, finger tapping, and the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test were performed at baseline, postoperative one week and postoperative one month.

Comparison of apical and coronal sealing in canals having tapered cones prepared with a rotary NiTi system and stainless steel instruments.

The purpose of this study was to compare the sealing ability of different tapered gutta percha cones that were used with lateral compaction and single cones in canals prepared with various root canal instruments. One hundred extracted maxillary incisor roots were used. In group 1, 30 roots were prepared with stainless steel instruments (SS) and then filled by the lateral compaction technique using .

Intraradicular splinting with endodontic instrument of horizontal root fracture--case report.

This case report describes the treatment of a horizontal mid-root-fractured incisor with an alternative fixation technique. As a result of clinical signs of pulpal necrosis, both the coronal and the apical root fragments were endodontically treated and obturated at single visit, and the fragments were stabilized internally through insertion of a stainless-steel endodontic file into the root canal. Four-year follow-up examination revealed satisfactory clinical and radiographic findings with hard tissue repair of the fracture line.
