In a 45-year-old woman with syncope, an electrocardiogram revealed intermittent asymptomatic type I second degree atrioventricular block, right bundle branch block and left anterior fascicular block. An echocardiogram documented concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and right ventricular dilatation and hypokinesia. Because the patient did not have second degree atrioventricular block at the time of an electrophysiological study, the atrioventricular node, the left posterior fascicle, and the His bundle all remain potential sites for the type I second degree atrioventricular block on her initial electrocardiogram.

Background Fracture of nickel-titanium (Ni-Ti) instruments in root canals is commonly associated with compromised outcomes in endodontic treatment. There is no single, universally accepted approach for managing this complication. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an Nd: YAP laser-assisted protocol in removing fractured Ni-Ti files in teeth with minimal root curvature (less than 15 degrees).

[Purpose] Although hallux function is fundamental in maintaining forward leaning standing posture, the insight into whether noncontact of the hallux with the ground alters the forward limit of stability (LoS) remains unclear. Thus, we aimed to determine the effects of the unilateral hallux noncontact on the forward LoS while standing. [Participants and Methods] This study included 17 healthy young and 17 community-dwelling older adults.
