Background: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of bonded substrate, zirconia surface conditioning and the interaction between them on the shear bond strength of monolithic zirconia.
Methods: Forty-eight monolithic zirconia discs were CAD-CAM fabricated and divided into two groups according to surface treatment either as milled and universal primer application (Monobond N, Ivoclar-Vivadent) (P) or sandblasting then universal primer application (Monobond N) (SP). Each main group was further divided into three test groups according to the bonded substrate: dentin (DSP, DP), composite (CSP, CP) or resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) (GSP, GP).

Introduction: A model to predict the risk of surgical complications following percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) could be a useful tool to guide clinical decision-making. The aim of this study was to develop a simple and widely applicable stratification tool to be used for patient counseling, surgical planning, evaluation of outcomes, and academic reporting.
Methods: Data of patients who underwent PCNL were retrieved from the database of the collaborating centers including demographics of patients, characteristics of their stones and urinary tracts, and perioperative data.

Herein, we developed a colorimetric method for the determination of Cu and Zn using NBD-G as a novel selective metal sensor. NBD-G was easily synthesized by a nucleophilic substitution reaction between 4-chloro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl) and Girard's Reagent P. The NBD-G solution is yellow, but when it reacts with Cu and Zn, its color changes selectively to red (510 nm) and orange (480 nm), respectively.

: Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial disease that mainly affects the lungs, but it can also impact other parts of the body, such as the brain, bones, and kidneys. The disease is caused by a bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis and spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. TB can be inactive or active; in its active state, noticeable symptoms appear, and it can be transmitted to others.

Aim: The severity of COVID-19 is influenced by uncontrolled hyper-inflammatory response with excessive release of many cytokines and chemokines. The understanding of the temporal change in the cytokine levels that underlies the diverse clinical presentations of COVID-19 can help in the prediction of the disease outcome and in the design of proper treatment strategies.
Method: Data were collected from children (<18 years old) hospitalised with severe COVID-19 or severe MIS-C who were compared to a group of healthy control children.
