The aim of the study was to develop an efficient micropropagation protocol of , which will allow its commercial exploitation in the pharmaceutical and horticultural industries. First, the effect of the date of the explant collection (20 April, 20 May, 20 June, 20 July, 20 August) and the position of the explant on the plant stem (shoot apex, 1st node, 3rd node, 5th node) on the establishment of in vitro cultures was studied (1st experiment: Stage I). Next, the effect of temperature (15 °C, 25 °C) and the node position (microshoot apex, 1st node, 5th node) on the microplant production and ex vitro survival of plantlets was studied (2nd experiment: Stage II). The optimum season to collect explants from wild plants was shown to be during the vegetative growth of the plants (April to May), while the shoot apex and the 1st node were the most suitable explants. For the proliferation and production of rooted microplants, the best results were obtained from single-node explants excised from microshoots produced from 1st node-explants collected on 20th of May. Temperature did not affect microshoot number, leaf number and the percentage of rooted microplants, while microshoot length was higher at 25 °C. Moreover, microshoot length and the percentage of rooted microplants were higher in those derived from apex explants, while the survival of plantlets was not affected by treatments and ranged between 67% and 100%.

Background: This study aimed to analyze the files of patients treated using PFN-A or INTERTAN intramedullary nails to reveal additional superiorities or disadvantageous factors for selecting the better intramedullary fixation method in patients presenting with intertrochanteric femur fractures.
Methods: In this retrospective study, the files of the patients who were operated on for intertrochanteric femur fractures using intramedullary fixation methods between September 2010 and June 2015 in the Orthopedics and Traumatology Clinic, Çukurova University Faculty of Medicine, were reviewed. The data including age, gender, chronic diseases, causes of fractures, fracture classification based on Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen (AO), the nail type (long or short), the interval between trauma and surgery, duration of anesthesia and surgery, hospitalization duration, amount of blood transfusion, the Tip-Apex Distance (TAD) in postoperative radiographs, functional outcomes according to Harris Hip Score (HHS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), postoperative complications, need for revision, and mortality was noted.

Statement Of The Problem: It is challenging to perform a pulpectomy procedure in primary tooth because of its physiological root resorption and variation in root morphology. Working length measurement is considered to be one of the critical steps, as it determines the extent of obturation and apical seal.
Purpose: To compare the accuracy of electronic apex locator (EAL) and digital radiography (DR) for working length determination in primary teeth.

Background: (Scopoli, 1763), the type species of the Osmylidae, has garnered significant research interest in taxonomy, particularly regarding its larval stages. To date, most studies have focused on the third instar larvae, but ignore the first instar larvae with the rough and incomplete morphological descriptions. This lack of studies has led to an unclear understanding of the morphological differences between larval stages, making it challenging to identify larvae, distinguish different osmylid species or even reconstruct phylogeny.

Although Total Ankle Arthroplasty (TAA) is primarily performed for post-traumatic ankle arthritis with joint disruption, anatomical landmarks for Joint Line (JL) level are typically preserved. However, severe Post-Traumatic Bone Loss (PTBL) or TAA revision may render some landmarks unidentifiable, challenging JL restoration. Patients undergoing customized TAA for severe PTBL or revision were enrolled.

Introduction: Surgical approaches for tumors of the orbital apex and the spheno-orbital region (SOR) comprehend medial and lateral corridors. The TransOrbital NeuroEndoscopic (TONE) approach has recently been reported as a possible effective alternative to the classic lateral corridors, but literature about is still underestimated.
Research Question: The aim of this study was to make a critical appraisal of the results of using the lateral TONE approach in a monocentric consecutive series of SOR tumors.
