Filter by:Background: Currently, periodontal treatment, both surgical and non-surgical, leaves sequelae in the vast majority of patients, dentine hypersensitivity (HSD) is one of the most important. For this reason, it is necessary to correctly diagnose this condition, to achieve a correct treatment of it. HSD is a condition frequently, which has been described as acute, provoked pain, which is not attributable to any other dental pathology. Its current prevalence is unknown, but it occurs in most patients after their periodontal treatment, and also in healthy patients. Course objective: To compare the clinical efficacy in reducing dentinal hypersensitivity in patients treated with dentifrices based on hydroxyapatite / 5% potassium nitrate / sodium monofluorophosphate 1450ppm and 5% potassium nitrate / 1426ppm sodium fluoride, during a period of evaluation of 8 weeks Materials and methods: A randomized clinical trial will be conducted. Inclusion criteria will be: patients ≥ 18 years, dentinal hypersensitivity in at least one tooth (incisors, canines, premolars) of analogous visual scale ≥4, healthy patients and patients with pathologies, controlled, absence of pathologies that contraindicate participation in the study. Exclusion criteria will include: teeth with extensive or defective fillings, tooth decay and pulpitis, dental crack, unit fixed prosthesis and plural fixed prosthesis, pregnant patients, regular anti-inflammatory treatment, allergy to any of the components of the study, hypersensitivity treatment Recent dentistry Patients will be assigned to two groups. The experimental group (n = 16) will be delivered with hydroxyapatite nanocrystals (VITIS® sensitive) and the control group (n = 16) will be given a paste with 5% potassium nitrate (Sensodyne True White), and after performing an instruction for use on the first visit, four subsequent visits will be made at 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks after the initial visit. At each visit the hard and soft tissue exam will be performed; and also cold, heat, evaporative and electrical tests will be carried out on the teeth that will be included in the study. The tests will be performed by two previously calibrated researchers, and then the results will be entered into a computer program to perform the effectiveness calculations. Expected results: The results of the present study would demonstrate that there is a general decrease in dentinal hypersensitivity in both groups, during the 8-week study period, presenting a significantly greater improvement in dentin hypersensitivity in either of the two control groups. Keywords: Dentine hypersensitivity, desensitizing paste, hydroxyapatite, potassium nitrate.
This study aims to investigate the potential association between pain sensitivity questionnaire score, the severity of postoperative pain, and postoperative analgesic requirement in patients with open colorectal cancer surgery. This information may be used to guide the optimal postoperative pain management, and ultimately improve patient's quality of life.
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is an important treatment for breast cancer patients. Patients with triple negative or Her2 enriched subtype who achieved pCR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy would have longer survival. But the overall pCR rate of breast cancer was about 20%. So, different methods have tried to improve pCR rate.Drug sensitivity screening in vitro for different chemotherapy drugs was a promising method for improving pCR rate. But there was no method could select effective drugs accurately for breast cancer patients until now. This study will explore whether drug screening by culturing breast cancer cells in vitro from breast cancer tissue could improve pCR rate compared with traditional neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Breast cancer patients who were candidates for neoadjuvant chemotherapy will be allocated two group. One group will receive neoadjuvant cheotherapy according physician's choices. Another group will receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy according results of drug sensitivity results by in vitro cell culture. pCR rate will be compared between two groups to explore whether drug sensitivity screening could improve pCR rate.
To assess the importance Of Ct scan in the prediction of fixation failure of per-trochanteric fractures
This study investigates the effect of exercise on pain sensitivity in ongoing neck pain patients compared to a healthy control group.
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a potentially life-threatening disease with varying severity of presentation. Nearly 60%-80% of all cases of AP in developed countries are attributable to either gallstone disease or alcohol abuse. The incidence is similar in both sexes, although alcohol abuse is the more common cause in men and gallstones is the more common cause in women.
Testing of a new ready-to-use Tape in comparison to the currently used skin prick test for the diagnosis of allergies. Assessment of clinical equivalence of the SPT Tape for representative common inhalant allergens to conventional SPT in terms of wheal reaction positivity and overall safety. Tests are performed in patients who have a medical history of relevant allergic rhinitis to any of the tested allergens.
Dyspnea (i.e. breathlessness) and exercise intolerance are common symptoms for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), yet it is not known why. It has been suggested that muscle dysfunction may contribute to dyspnea and exercise intolerance in ILD. Our study aims to: i) examine differences in the structure and function of the leg muscles in ILD patients, ii) determine if leg muscle fatigue contributes to dyspnea and exercise limitation in patients with ILD, and iii) determine the effects of breathing extra oxygen on leg muscle fatigue, as well as ability to exercise in ILD patients.

In-stent restenosis remains one of the most challenging problems in patients after coronary artery angioplasty. Angiographically, it is discovered in 10% of the patients after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. There are multiple factors causing restenosis, which can be divided into two major groups: first vessel-dependent (based on the vessel's tortuosity, dimensions and lesion's calcification, all leading to suboptimal stent expansion), and second dependent on the inflammatory processes caused by the intervention. Study objectives is the analysis of the possible correlation between allergy to metals utilised during the stent manufacturing (nickel, cobalt, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten) and in-stent restenosis occurence. The angiographic results of stent implantation, and in-stent restenosis will be assessed independently by two skilled interventional cardiologists, and in case of their discrepant opinions, the decision will be made on the basis of the third cardiologist. The tests will be applicated during the hospitalisation, then read after 48 hours and 72 hours, and subsequently interpreted by the skilled dermatologist, during the hospital stay or afterwards.
