Objective: This double-blinded randomized clinical trial aimed to compare postoperative pain using 2Shape® (TS) in rotary (TSRot) and adaptive (TSAK) kinematics in the maxillary and mandibular molars in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis and symptomatic apical periodontitis following single-visit endodontic treatment.
Methods: Seventy patients were randomly assigned to two groups (TSRot /TSAK), (n=35 each). The preoperative and postoperative pain intensities at various time intervals up to 72h using a Visual-Analogue Scale was noted.

Objective: To compare the efficacy of single-visit root canal therapy (RCT) and traditional multi-visit RCT for chronic apical periodontitis in anterior teeth.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 106 patients with sinus-type anterior chronic apical periodontitis who underwent root canal treatment during March 2020 and April 2023 at Beijing Hospital of Integrated traditional Chinese and Western Medicine. The patients were divided into an observation group (55 cases, single-visit RCT) and a control group (51 cases, traditional multi-visit RCT) according to different treatment methods.

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the intensity of postoperative pain following the final rinse using cold saline compared with room temperature saline and occlusal reduction.
Materials And Methods: A prospective, parallel, double-blinded randomized controlled trial was conducted on 69 first mandibular molars diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis and symptomatic apical periodontitis. Single-visit root canal treatment was performed; access cavity preparations and chemomechanical preparations were carried out using the ProTaper Gold rotary system under copious irrigation using 3% sodium hypochlorite and 17% EDTA.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines for hepatitis C virus (HCV) testing, although effective, may miss crucial diagnostic opportunities. The goal of this study was to assess the utility of an antibody (Ab) and antigen (Ag) combination immunoassay as an alternative to traditional HCV screening. Remnant specimens from 1,341 patients with concurrent third-generation serologic (Roche anti-HCV-II) and nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT) were assessed using the HCV Duo Ab/Ag immunoassay (Roche).
