Nonmalignant nonendodontic lesions mimicking periapical lesions of endodontic origin: A systematic review.

The objective of the study is to describe the clinical and radiographic features of nonmalignant nonendodontic periapical lesions (NMNPLs) mimicking lesions of endodontic cause. Five electronic databases, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, and ProQuest, were searched (till July 2021) for case reports, case series, and cross-sectional studies, in English language, reporting NMNPLs, which were clinically and/or radiographically simulating periapical pathosis of endodontic origin. Data extraction was done followed by quality assessment of the included articles using the Joanna Briggs Institute tool for case reports and case series.

ASSOCIATION OF PULP CALCIFICATIONS AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS.

Introduction: This systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the association between pulp calcifications (PC) and cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Method: Five databases (PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science and ProQuest) were searched to identify articles. Quality assessment of the selected articles was done using Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tool and the inter-examiner agreement was calculated using the Cohen-Kappa test.

Heterologous Production of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in E. coli Using Δ5-Desaturase Gene from Microalga Isochrysis Sp.

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and arachidonic acid (ARA) are long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) that play a significant role in human growth and development, which deficiency can trigger several metabolic-related diseases. Since the availability of PUFA sources is limited, there arises a need to explore alternative sources. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate whether an Escherichia coli which are engineered with Δ5Des-Iso gene isolated from Isochrysis sp.

Fragment reattachment after complicated crown-root fractures of anterior teeth: A systematic review.

Background/aim: Fragment reattachment is a procedure that can immediately restore form and function in crown-root fracture cases and is considered a minimally invasive and cost-effective treatment option. The aim of this systematic review was to analyze the methods used and the outcome of fragment reattachment for complicated crown-root fractures of anterior teeth.

Materials And Methods: Five electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar) were searched for English language articles regarding fragment reattachment after complicated crown-root fractures of anterior teeth.
