AI Article Synopsis
- The study compared the effectiveness of Formocresol (FC), Portland Cement (PC), and NeoMTA Plus in treating decayed primary molars through pulpotomy in children aged 3-9 years.
- All three materials demonstrated a 100% clinical success rate at both six and twelve months.
- NeoMTA Plus had the highest radiographic success rates, although no significant differences were found among the three groups overall, indicating that PC and NeoMTA Plus are viable alternatives to FC.
Article Abstract
The present study aimed to compare the clinical and radiographic success rates of Formocresol (FC), Portland Cement (PC), and NeoMTA Plus in primary molar pulpotomy. Ninety-six primary molars in ninety-six children aged 3‒9 years were randomly assigned to FC, PC, and NeoMTA Plus groups. Radiographic and clinical follow-up evaluations were performed at six and twelve months. After six and twelve months, clinical success rates were 100% in the three groups. The radiographic success rates in the 6-month follow-up were 96.7 and 96.7% in the FC and PC groups and 100% in the NeoMTA Plus group. At 12 months, radiographic success rate was 93.8, and 93.8% in the FC and PC groups and 96.9% in the NeoMTA Plus group. There were no significant differences between the three groups at all follow-up evaluations. NeoMTA Plus showed highest success rate, clinically and radiographically. PC and NeoMTA Plus can be considered as an alternative to FC.

Triple Clavicle Injury: A Fracture of the Middle Third Associated With Acromioclavicular Dislocation and Sternoclavicular Subluxation.

Orthopedics and Traumatology, Hospital Francisco José Neves - Unimed Belo Horizonte (BH), Belo Horizonte, BRA.
In this report, we present a case of a triple clavicle injury, acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocation, a middle third clavicle fracture, and a sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) subluxation, and describe its successful surgical treatment. A 49-year-old female patient sustained a 3 m fall, resulting in direct trauma to her left shoulder. Initial radiographs and computed tomography (CT) scans revealed a displaced middle third clavicle fracture, a high-grade ACJ dislocation, and a posterior SCJ subluxation.

Introduction: Esophageal leiomyoma is the most common benign submucosal mesenchymal tumor of the esophagus, typically asymptomatic but can cause symptoms such as dysphagia, chest pain, or regurgitation when large. Diagnosis is often incidental, confirmed by imaging techniques like computed tomography (CT) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), with surgical enucleation being the standard treatment.
Presentation Of Case: A 28-year-old male presented with a one-year history of persistent epigastric discomfort and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms unresponsive to proton pump inhibitors.
Real-world evaluation of intracardiac echocardiography guided radio-frequency catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation: a retrospective cohort study.

Department of Cardiology, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, 37 Guoxue Alley, Wuhou District, Chengdu, 610041, Sichuan, China.
Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) has been used to guide radio-frequency catheter ablation (RFCA) for better catheter navigation and less radiation exposure in treating atrial fibrillation (AF). This retrospective cohort study enrolled 227 AF patients undergoing ICE- or traditional fluoroscopy (TF)-guided RFCA for AF in a tertiary hospital. ICE was used more often in patients with atrial tachycardia [odds ratio (OR) 3.

Purpose: Olecranon osteotomy has been associated with loss of reduction, nonunion, implant failure, and migration of wires. We aim to evaluate quality of reduction of the osteotomy site as a predictor of olecranon osteotomy nonunion.
Methods: One hundred and twenty-five distal humerus fractures that underwent open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) were reviewed.
Comparing supine CT scanogram and standing long-leg radiograph for postoperative alignment in total knee arthroplasty: a prospective study.

Purpose: Achieving precise postoperative alignment is critical for the long-term success of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Long-leg standing radiograph (LLR) at 6 weeks post-op is the gold standard for assessing alignment, but its reliance on weight-bearing and positioning makes it less practical in the early postoperative period. Supine computed tomography scanogram (CTS) offers a potential alternative.
