Objective: This study aimed to compare the bone density and volume in patients with alveolar cleft reconstructions utilizing bone marrow aspirate concentrate with iliac graft versus iliac graft alone.
Material And Methods: Thirty-six patients with unilateral alveolar cleft were randomly allocated into either an intervention group receiving an iliac bone graft mixed with bone marrow concentrate or a control group receiving an iliac bone graft. Cone beam CT was obtained preoperative, 6 and 12 months postoperatively to assess the bone density of the graft and bone volume of the alveolar defect, and then, the bone loss ratio was calculated.
Purpose: Pain, swelling, limitation of the mouth opening, development of intra-bony defects, and bone loss are common side effects of removing the impacted third molar. The purpose of this study was to measure the association of applying melatonin in the socket of an impacted mandibular third molar with osteogenic activity and the anti-inflammatory effects.
Methods: This prospective, randomized, blinded trial comprised of patients who required removal of the impacted mandibular third molar.
Amyloodiniosis and vibriosis are serious diseases in European seabass () hatcheries with noticeable high mortality. This study was conducted on tank-cultured frys at a private marine hatchery near Mariout Lake (Alexandria, Egypt). Frys showed a high mortality rate (70%), lethargy, darkening, asphyxia, ascites, and velvety skin appearance.
