Cytogenetic destruction in ancient Baltic Seashore fish species: ecological risks related to substance munition throwing from the Gotland Container with the Baltic Marine.
A significant difference was noted regarding the need for additional doses; 10% of patients in the D-K group needed one extra dose, and 5% needed two extra doses, compared to 25% and 20% in the P-K group, respectively (p=0.001). The P-K group showed less post-procedure nausea and vomiting. No statistically significant difference between both groups regarding endoscopist satisfaction.

The P-K combination was associated with a shorter recovery time in pediatric upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, while the D-K combination showed less need for additional doses.

Whether adhesive zirconia ceramic removable partial denture attachments are feasible with current technology is unclear.

The purpose of this finite element analysis and invitro study was to evaluate the effect of the lever arm, tooth preparation, and aging on the loading of the tooth-zirconia attachment interface.

Three different finite element analysis (FEA) models allowing for the loading of an adhesive attachment either directly or through a removable partial denture were used. Two models represented a human tooth with 2 different types of attachments, while the third model also included a removable partial denture. For the evaluation of bond strength, a combination of shear and hydrostatic stress was used. In addition, composite resin teeth were fabricated, and zirconia bars were bonded to them with varying tooth preparations and lever arm lengths. In 1 group the influence of aging was analyzed. Fracture load was determined by using a universal testing machine. Statistical analysis was based on the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, ANOVA, and Games-Howell test (α=.05).

The maximum stress of 65 MPa occurring in the bonding area was reduced to 37 MPa by adding a retainer to the attachment. Loading of the denture resulted in a maximum stress of 9 MPa. Mean fracture loads ranged from 33.6 N to 209.1 N. Preparing a flat bonding surface showed a nonsignificant increase (P=.197), whereas aging led to a nonsignificant decrease in fracture load (P=.075). A lever arm extended by 2 mm significantly reduced fracture load (P=.002). The addition of an occlusal-distal (OD)cavity led to a nonsignificant increase (P=.186), which became significant when a mesial-occlusal-distal (MOD)preparation was applied (P=.001).

Adhesive zirconia attachments should use a MOD cavity and have a cross section of at least 2.5×2.5 mm. The attachment should not extend more than 3 mm.

Assess the antibacterial, physical and chemical properties of AH Plus, BioRoot RCS and Pulp Canal Sealer (PCS) in contact with 2% chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX) used as final irrigant prior to root canal obturation.

The antimicrobial properties were investigated by direct contact tests for planktonic and biofilm growth of E. faecalis, S. mutans, S.epidermidis and S.aureus in vitro. The setting time, wettability, microhardness and surface roughness were also assessed. The sealers were studied in no contact, 1-minute (short-term) and continuous contact (long-term) with CHX. Chemical characterization of sealers was performed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy after CHX or saline used as the last irrigant in an ex vivo tooth model and in endo training blocks.

CHX increased the antibacterial activity of all the sealers investigated against planktonic bacteria and biofilms with PCS exerting the highest antimicrobial activity with and without the presence of CHX. The setting of AH Plus and BioRoot RCS was retarded, while for PCS accelerated in the presence of CHX. AH Plus and PCS were more hydrophilic after contact with CHX, whilst BioRoot RCS was hydrophobic in a time-dependent manner. The microhardness of sealers was compromised and the surface roughness increased after CHX exposure for AH Plus and BioRoot RCS, and decreased for PCS. CHX did not affect the sealers' chemistry, but PCS that exhibited two extra phases.

CHX improved the antibacterial efficacy of endodontic sealers but further evidence is needed to confirm its suitability as a final irrigant prior to root canal obturation.

A suicide attempt (SA) is a major risk factor of recurrent SA in adolescence and may be associated with psychological or social problems in the future. REPEATERS is a longitudinal study which examines the long-term psychosocial outcome of adolescents following attempted suicide. It focuses on the impact of early recurrence (i.e., within the first year of the index SA)-data which is, in fact, poorly documented.

Ten years after the index SA, a self-reporting questionnaire was sent to all adolescents who had attempted suicide and were followed up by the CHRU (Regional University Hospital Centre) de Nancy, France, between 1994 and 2003 and their parents. The purpose of this questionnaire was to assess psychosocial outcomes. Data concerning SA were collected retrospectively.

After ten years, 146 of the 309 adolescents who had attempted suicide and were participating in the study had responded 90% lived with a partner and 41% had children. The mean (SD) current emotional life of suicide attempt survivors scoricide, some with a lower level of education were nevertheless at increased risk of recurrence and depression. Post-intervention strategies are therefore essential in order to evaluate risk factors which may persist if not taken into consideration.
Orthodontic miniscrews have become popular tools for providing temporary anchorage during orthodontic treatment. Although they are easy to insert, damage to the periodontal ligament or dental root during insertion is an unfavorable iatrogenic complication. Root perforation during miniscrew insertion in human teeth has been reported in a few articles. In this article, the authors describe the spontaneous repair of an iatrogenic root perforation in a mandibular first molar that occurred during insertion of an orthodontic miniscrew in a young girl undergoing orthodontic treatment.

A 15-year-old girl with malocclusion was undergoing orthodontic treatment when the mesial root of her mandibular right first molar was damaged by an orthodontic miniscrew. The miniscrew and corresponding bracket were immediately removed to avoid any unnecessary forces on the tooth. Because the pulp remained vital without any additional damage and infection for 6 months, orthodontic treatment was resumed and completed in 9 months without any pulp damage or unfavorable symptoms.
