A 4-year-old female was diagnosed with Type II Aortopulmonary window after being seen for a murmur. By utilizing multimodality advanced imaging, including 2D and 3D echo, computed tomography (CTA) with semi-transparent overlay as a road map, we were able to preoperatively plan camera angles and device selection as well as close the defect percutaneously under echocardiography guidance. This report highlights the importance of a multimodality imaging approach to interventional procedures.

It is classified into classic, malignancyassociated, and drug-induced subtypes.The aims of this study is to evaluate the subtypes, clinical features, laboratory profiles, and treatment of patients with SS.

Materials And Methods: From 2005 to 2020, the literature search used electronic databases PubMed, Embase, Science Direct, and Google Scholar to find studies published solely in English and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) employing CPP-ACP as an intervention. All eligible studies were reviewed by two independent reviewers.
Background: Many studies explained the importance of remineralisation of early carious lesions with various remineralising agents. In the present study, we incorporated the remineralising agents in a dentifrice, applied that in artificial enamel caries and evaluated their remineralising potential and compared the efficacy among the three.
Aim: To evaluate and compare the remineralisation potential of a dentifrice containing bioactive glass, casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate and novel laboratory synthesised strontiumdoped nanohydroxyapatite paste in artificial enamel caries.
Unlabelled: Childhood fracture is common, but whether it predicts adult fracture is not clear. Repeat childhood fracture was associated with adult (≤ 45 years) fracture, and in women, lower areal bone density was associated with repeat childhood fracture. Identifying fracture-prone children can modify adult fracture risk management.
