Importance: Uncomplicated urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common indication for outpatient antimicrobial therapy. National guidelines for the management of uncomplicated UTI were published in 2011, but the extent to which they align with current practices, patient diversity, and pathogen biology, all of which have evolved greatly in the time since their publication, is not fully known.
Objective: To reevaluate the effectiveness and adverse event profile for first-line antibiotics, fluoroquinolones, and oral β-lactams for treating uncomplicated UTI in contemporary clinical practice.

The purpose of this study was to compare the penetration of methylene blue (MB) dye after laser irradiation using PIPS (photon-induced photoacoustic streaming) and SWEEPS (shockwave enhanced emission photoacoustic streaming) methods compared to Passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) and to study their effect on dentin microhardness. A total of 44 single-rooted human teeth which were extracted for orthodontic or periodontal reasons were used. The teeth were decapitated to standardize roots to 12 mm in length.

Objective: This study aimed to apply the DeepLabv3 + model and compare it with the U-Net model in terms of detecting and segmenting apical lesions on panoramic radiography.
Methods: 260 panoramic images that contain apical lesions in different regions were collected and randomly divided into training and test datasets. All images were manually annotated for apical lesions using Computer Vision Annotation Tool software by two independent dental radiologists and a master reviewer.

Purpose: To investigate the anatomical variations and measure the distances between surgically relevant structures in the maxilla associated with Le Fort I osteotomy in patients with maxillary canting using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Methods: CBCT scans of 63 patients (21 males and 42 females) with maxillary canting who were indicated for orthognathic surgical planning were retrospectively investigated and analyzed. The distances of the relevant anatomical structures, including the descending palatine artery, pterygomaxillary junction, infraorbital foramen, and nasolacrimal duct opening, were measured with the key anatomical landmarks to evaluate their variations.
