Bidirectional relationship between pancreatic cancer and diabetes mellitus: a comprehensive literature review.

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a fatal malignant disease. It is well known that the relationship between PC and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complicated bidirectional relationship. The most important factors causing increased risks of pancreatic cancer are hyperglycaemia, hyperinsulinemia, pancreatitis, and dyslipidemia.

Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of and as Pulpotomy Medicaments in Primary Teeth: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Aim: To evaluate the clinical and radiographic efficacy of and as pulp medicaments in primary molars in comparison to formocresol.

Materials And Methods: This randomized controlled trial is a three-arm, parallel-group study. This research included 66 vital, carious primary molars that required pulpotomy treatment in 4-7-year-old children.

Assessment of the efficiency of a pre- versus post-acquisition metal artifact reduction algorithm in the presence of 3 different dental implant materials using multiple CBCT settings: An in vitro study.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess artifacts generated in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) of 3 types of dental implants using 3 metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm conditions (pre-acquisition MAR, postacquisition MAR, and no MAR), and 2 peak kilovoltage (kVp) settings.

Materials And Methods: Titanium-zirconium, titanium, and zirconium alloy implants were placed in a dry mandible. CBCT images were acquired using 84 and 90 kVp and at normal resolution for all 3 MAR conditions.
