Arthrocentesis- An minimally invasive method for TMJ disc disorder: An original research
Get PDFTMJ dysfunction is a therapeutic challenge in the oral and maxillofacial clinic. Although TMJ pain and dysfunction can be caused by many different aetiologic factors, the role played by inflammation as an underlying mechanism of pain and dysfunction of the TMJ has played a major role. TMD patients having pain and tenderness for prolonged period of time will show signs of inflammation biochemically as well as radiographically. Therefore the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of arthrocentesis in patients suffering from TMJ disc disorders. Materials and Methods A Total Of 60 Subjects Suffering From Tmj Disc Disorders Were Selected And Treated By Arthrocentesis. The Subjects Were Followed Up For A Period Of Two Year. Results The mean maximal mouth opening prior to arthro-centesis was 30.10 mm and after the procedure the mean maximal mouth opening was 45.3 mm. The mean right and left lateral movements before arthrocentesis were 6.15mm and 6.59mm respectively, and the mean right and left lateral movements of 9.09 and 9.21 respectively were present after the procedure. The mean degree of pain before arthrocentesis was 7.7, and after the procedure the mean degree of pain was 1.03 as per the visual analogue scale.

Out of 9, 6 studies were selected for the meta-analysis. Meta-analysis of the 6 studies indicated that overall, the use of machine-assisted irrigation technique showed better postoperative pain reduction than conventional syringe irrigation. Conclusion: Overall, machine-assisted irrigation causes reduction in postoperative pain compared to conventional syringe irrigation
Efficacy and safety of perrectal 400 microgram misoprostol versus intravenous 200 microgram methylergometrine in the management of third stage of labor for prevention of postpartum haemorrhage: A randomized control trial
Get PDFBackground: Objective: Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a major cause of mortality and morbidity during childbirth, especially in developing countries. Misoprostol is a cheap, safe, widely available, and stable at room temperature, does not required any intravenous accesses and having few mild side effects. In resource-poor countries with limited facilities, misoprostol may be one of the important interventions to prevent PPH. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of perrectal low dose misoprostol for the prevention of PPH. Method: We designed a prospective randomized control trial, single centre study. 138 indoor low risk pregnant women with gestational age at least 37 weeks who anticipated vaginal delivery were randomly assigned to perrectal 400 microgram misoprostol (n = 71) or intravenous 200 microgram (n = 67) methylergometrine after delivery of baby and placenta. The primary outcome was incidence of PPH (estimated blood loss >500 ml after delivery of baby and placenta). Results: In this study out of 138 low risk pregnancy, no women developed PPH, no patient required additional dose of oxytocin, no patient required any form of transfusion

Study the solvation and slit width changing on properties of some endocrine disrupting agents
Get PDFThe spectral characteristics of Bisphenols (BPA, BPS, and BPF) were investigated using room temperature emission and excitation spectroscopy in solvents (n-hexane, ethanol, 1-propanol, and butanol). The slit offers were used in various offers ;The device is set to different slit widths (1.5; 3; 5; 10 and 15 nm) ; The results revealed to us changing the slit width affects the fluorescence signal's FWHM and intensity. Thus, larger slit width gives higher intensity values with lower fluorescence signal detail. The results of the work showed a wide range of differences across different solvents, as these spectral differences are attributed to the differences in different solubility processes when using different types of organic solvents
