Treatment options for severely misaligned teeth with advanced bone loss are limited. We report the management of a case of advanced periodontitis in a labially placed extruded maxillary canine. A 24 years old male reported to the periodontal clinic to preserve his mobile and misaligned upper left lateral incisor. Clinical and radiographic examination revealed advanced attachment loss with bone resorption around the affected tooth. The decision was taken to reconstruct the lost periodontal tissues in coordination with orthodontic intervention to align the tooth in a functionally esthetic position. At the end of the combined periodontal and orthodontic treatment, the tooth was preserved and was well-aligned in the arch; the patient was satisfied with the treatment outcome. It can be concluded that severely misaligned teeth with advanced bone loss can be salvaged with a combined and meticulously planned Periodontal Orthodontic treatment approach.

Circadian disruption is pervasive in modern society and associated with increased risk of disease. Chronic jet lag paradigms are popular experimental tools aiming to emulate human circadian disruption experienced during rotating and night shift work. Chronic jet lag induces metabolic phenotypes tied to liver and systemic functions, yet lack of a clear definition for how rhythmic physiology is impaired under these conditions hinders the ability to identify the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Methods: A prospective quantitative design was employed to observe the 24-h obstetric triage process from February 4 to March 7, 2023.
Results: This study involved observations of 120 obstetric patients with mean maternal age of 29.
The cardiac neural crest is critical for the normal development of the heart, as its surgical ablation in the chick recapitulates common human congenital heart defects such as 'Common Arterial Trunk' and 'Double Outlet Right Ventricle' (DORV). While left-right asymmetry is known to be important for heart development, little is known about potential asymmetric differences between right and left cardiac neural folds with respect to heart development. Here, through surgical ablation of either left or right cardiac neural crest, we find that right ablation results in more varied and more severe heart defects.

Background: This prospective nonrandomized controlled study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes, postoperative complications, and patient experiences between a modified circumcision technique using a disposable circumcision suture device and the standard circumcision method using a disposable circumcision suture device in Chinese patients with excess foreskin or phimosis at our department of urology and andrology.
Materials And Methods: A total of 456 patients underwent circumcision at our center from May 2021 to September 2022, with 228 patients in the modified disposable circumcision suture device group (mean age: 29.8 years; range: 16.

The surgery-first approach (SFA) is gaining popularity in orthognathic surgery because it makes treatment duration shorter and more satisfying for patients. However, its effectiveness in complex cases isn't fully understood. Here, we describe a rare case where SFA was used to fix problems caused by missing posterior teeth and a deep bite, which made traditional pre-surgery orthodontic treatment impractical.
