Evaluating the ability of cultivated odontoblasts to form dentin-like tissue in vitro using fibroblast growth factor and insulin-like growth factor.

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the ability of cultivated odontoblast to form dentin-like tissue using fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF).

Materials And Methods: Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) were extracted from 10 human teeth. They were isolated and cultivated in vitro with the use of stem cell markers.

Cleaning efficacy and debris extrusion of supplementary file systems XP-endo Finisher and XP-endo Finisher R in endodontic retreatment.

Aim: To evaluate cleaning efficacy and debris extrusion of supplementary file systems XP Endo Finisher (XPEF) and XP Endo Finisher R (XPEFR) in endodontic retreatment.

Materials And Methods: Thirty single-rooted teeth with single canals were selected, canal preparation done till file #30 6% and obturation completed using lateral condensation technique with AH Plus sealer. The samples were stored at 37°C in a 100% humidity incubator for 7 days.

Efficacy and safety of fixed dose combination of Sitagliptin, metformin, and pioglitazone in type 2 Diabetes (IMPACT study): a randomized controlled trial.

Background: Due to the progressive decline in β-cell function, it is often necessary to utilize multiple agents with complementary mechanisms of action to address various facets and achieve glycemic control. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a fixed-dose combination (FDC) of metformin/sitagliptin/pioglitazone (MSP) therapy vs. metformin/sitagliptin (MS) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
