Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of resin infiltration in improving the aesthetic appearance of anterior teeth affected by molar-incisor hypomineralisation (MIH).
Data Sources: PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) were searched from 2009 to 2024. The protocol was registered in the International Prospective Database of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO CRD42023461909).
Background And Purpose: Ischemic stroke (IS) is classified into clinical subtypes and likely influenced by various lipid components. Nevertheless, the roles of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), apolipoprotein B (apoB), and apoB/apoA-I ratio in different IS subtypes remain underexplored. This study aimed to investigate the differential distribution of plasma apoA-I and apoB levels among IS subtypes and to evaluate the predictive value of the apoB/apoA-I ratio in assessing IS subtypes and disease severity.

In chyluria, there exists the communication between lymphatic vessels and the urinary tract, but the specific mechanism of this communication remains undocumented. The objective of this study was to assess the morphology of the main lymphatic vessels including the uro-lymphatic fistula, the thoracic duct using Magnetic Resonance Lymphangiography (MRL) and Intranodal Lymphangiography (IL).
