Shaping Ability of RaCe Rotary Nickel-Titanium Instruments in Simulated Root Canals
TL;DR: Under the conditions of this study RaCe rotary nickel-titanium instruments prepared simulated canals rapidly and successfully, with little change in working length and with few aberrations or instrument deformities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the accuracy of neutrophil CD64 and C-reactive protein as a single test for the early detection of neonatal sepsis.
TL;DR: Preliminary data show that diagnostic accuracy of CD64 is superior to CRP when measured at the time of suspected sepsis, which implies that CD 64 is a more reliable marker for the early identification of neonatal sepsi as a single determination compared with CRP.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the amount of coronal dentin did not significantly increase the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth restored with prefabricated carbon fiber post and composite resin core.

An in vivo comparison of the step-back technique versus a step-back/ultrasonic technique in human mandibular molars.
TL;DR: This study compared the in vivo debridement efficacy of the step-back preparation versus a step- back/ultrasound preparation in the mesial root canals of vital human mandibular molars with respect to cleanliness and canal and isthmus performance.

TL;DR: Micro-CT scanning is more discriminative of the changes in canal space associated with repeated instrument use than photographic measurements, and canal preparations are significantly smaller after the third use of the same instrument.
