Background: To compare the characteristics of biometric measurements among the LS900, IOL Master, and OPD-SCAN III in patients with mild-to-moderate cataract.
Methods: We recruited 85 eyes of 78 patients diagnosed with mild-to-moderate cataract at our hospital between January and April 2023. The K (average corneal curvature; K1 and K2), astigmatism (AST), and white to white (WTW) were measured using those three devices, respectively. Differences and correlations between those measures based on the device were explored.
Results: The K1, K2, and AST were highly consistent among the groups (P = 0.851, P = 0.626, P = 0.473, respectively). The WTW measured by IOL Master were larger than those measured by the LS900 and OPD-SCAN III (all P < 0.001). However, all three devices were highly correlated in all measures (P < 0.001). Bland-Altman plots indicated a significant agreement between three devices in all measurements (P < 0.001).
Conclusions: K1, K2, and AST in patients with mild-to-moderate cataract were similar among all three devices, whereas the WTW were not. WTW measurement differences between three devices should be concerned in cataract cases.

Objectives: To assess the validity of light-induced and laser-induced fluorescence devices compared to the visual-tactile method for detecting secondary caries around resin composite restorations.
Materials And Methods: The study included 20 participants with 30 resin-composite restored teeth. Restorations' margins were examined using three diagnostic methods: the visual-tactile method (FDI criteria), the light-induced fluorescence camera (VistaCam iX), and the laser-induced fluorescence device (DIAGNOdent pen), and the reference was visual inspection after removal of defective restorations.

Introduction: the post-surgical management of ankle fractures is still controversial, and there is no consensus on which rehabilitation regimen should be included as the best. The objective of the study was to describe the clinical and functional results of post-surgical patients with A/B Weber ankle fracture managed with early rehabilitation through early support and immobilization with circular appliance immobilization.
Material And Methods: prospective observational study of patients with postoperative Weber A and B ankle fractures, who were prescribed a program of early gradual weight-bearing and protected with a circular appliance and were compared with patients who did not receive weight-bearing.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess and compare the efficacy of Erich Arch Bar (EAB), Inter Maxillary Fixation (IMF) screws and SMART Lock Hybrid arch bar (HABs) in the treatment of mandibular fractures.
Materials And Methods: A prospective randomized clinical study was carried out in the Department of Dentistry at ESIC Hospital in Hyderabad from August 2021 to August 2023. The study comprised of three groups (EAB group (31), IMF screw group (33) and HABs group (29)).

The analysis of eye movements is a noninvasive, reliable and fast method to detect and quantify brain (dys)function. Here, we investigated the performance of two novel eye-trackers-the Thomas Oculus Motus-research mobile (TOM-rm) and the TOM-research stationary (TOM-rs)-and compared them with the performance of a well-established video-based eye-tracker, i.e.

Conventional temperature optimisation in Hyperthermia Treatment Planning aims to maximise tumour temperature (e.g., T90; the temperature reached in at least 90% of the tumour) while enforcing hard constraints on normal tissue temperature (max(Ttissue)≤45°C).
