Efficacy of different adhesive systems in bonding direct resin composite restorations: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: This study aimed to identify and evaluate scholarly research on the efficacy, durability, and long-term stability of various adhesive systems used for bonding direct resin composite restorations and to identify factors influencing bonding performance, such as adhesive composition, application protocol, substrate type, and etching technique.

Materials And Methods: An all-inclusive electronic database search for peer-reviewed scholarly journal articles was conducted using PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, Dimensions, and the Cochrane Library for research articles investigating the effectiveness of different adhesive systems in direct resin composite restorations, excluding reviews, meta-analyses, opinion pieces, and case reports. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane tool (Robvis 2.

Evaluating the influence of sports-induced trauma on temporomandibular disorders: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: The main aim of this study was to identify the existing literature on the association between sporting activities and temporomandibular disorders and to critically appraise evidence of this association through a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Design: A comprehensive search was conducted using PubMed, ScienceDirect, Dimensions, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, and the Education Resources Information Centre (ERIC). Articles were selected using pre-specified eligibility criteria.

Experimental Induction of Anti-Muscarinic Type-3-Receptor Extracellular Loop Antibodies by Immunization with 4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal Modified Ro60 and Unmodified Ro60.

Objective: Sjögren's Disease (SjD) subjects have decreased lacrimal/salivary gland function. Studies have proposed that autoantibodies targeting G-protein-coupled muscarinic acetylcholine-type-3-receptor (M3R) are potential clinical markers for SjD. We hypothesized that rabbits/mice immunized with 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified/unmodified Ro60 will develop an autoimmunity, specifically a SjD phenotype, thus expressing increased levels of anti-M3R antibodies.

Primary Pulmonary Choriocarcinoma With Lymph Node Metastasis: A Case Report and Brief Review.

Choriocarcinoma is a malignant germ cell tumor containing syncytiotrophoblasts and secreting human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG), often associated with a poor prognosis. Reports of primary choriocarcinoma of the lung with lymph node metastasis are extremely rare in the literature. Here, we report a surgically treated case of primary pulmonary choriocarcinoma in a 32-year-old woman.
