Tooth number 47 the concerned tooth here was ideally indicated for extraction but the patient was keen to save the tooth, so the treatment plan decided was the rehabilitation of the tooth with custom-designed cast post followed by a metal crown. Informed consent was obtained from the patient. Access cavity was prepared and all caries from the pulp floor were excavated in relation to tooth number 47. Working length was determined using 15K ss hand files (Fig. 2A). Thorough cleaning and shaping was done till size F3 ProTaper files with copious irrigation using 2% chlorhexidine, normal saline, 5% sodium hypochlorite, and then final rinse with saline. Intracanal dressing of calcium hydroxide dressing was placed for 7 days. In the next appointment, obturation was done with F3 ProTaper cones using resin-based sealer (Figs 2B and 3A). While excavating caries during access cavity preparation, a very thin layer of dentin remained as caries were almost involving the furcation. So to reinforce the floor, a layer of MTA was placed on pulpal floor (Fig. 3A) (keeping the canals patent) and on the weakened mesial wall as well. It was then covered with moist cotton followed by placement of a temporary restoration.

Knowledge of the root canal anatomy and its variations is essential for successful completion of the endodontic treatment. Root canal treatment of maxillary second molars with aberrant canal configuration can be challenging. The incidence of two palatal canals in a palatal root is quite rare in maxillary molars. The novel diagnostic aids such as cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) help in the successful management of such cases. This case report describes the successful diagnosis and treatment of a maxillary second molar with two palatal canals, merging at the apical third of the root.

Sex estimation in forensic science is an essential step for medicolegal purposes. Teeth are an excellent material for anthropological, odontological, genetic, and forensic investigations as they are known to resist a variety of ante-mortem and post-mortem insults. Sexual dimorphism is an indicator of gender differences that can be observed in several aspects of the human skeleton such as the pelvis, cranium, femur, humerus, canines, and other structures. Maxillary first molars are the first permanent teeth to erupt into the oral cavity at the mean age of 6–7 years and are less commonly impacted as compared to canines. The purpose of this study was to indicate whether sexual dimorphism also exists in the first maxillary molar of humans. To determine the sexual dimorphism in the permanent maxillary first molar teeth using the mesiodistal and buccolingual crown width. The present study was performed on 80 patients from the National Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Jaipur. Mesiodistal and buccolingual width were measured on the basis of intraoral examination and plaster modal with the help of Vernier caliper. Sexual dimorphism (in percentage) was calculated from these measured parameters. The mean values of right and left mesiodistal width and buccolingual width were less for females than for males and the differences were statistically significant for buccolingual width but nonsignificant for mesiodistal width. The sexual dimorphism was slightly greater on the right side than the left side. Buccolingual width of right maxillary molar teeth shows maximum sexual dimorphism among all measurements (both intraoral 5.13% and cast 5.18%). This study signifies the possible role of morphometric study of canine teeth in estimation of gender and it can be used in forensic investigations where gender determination of skeletal remains is difficult.

Aim: The present study was planned to evaluate C-reactive protein and serum magnesium in preterm labor compared to healthy subjects. Introduction: Preterm labor is defined as the onset of labor before the completion of 37 weeks of gestation in a pregnancy beyond 20 weeks of gestation. Preterm is one of the leading causes of perinatal morbidity and mortality. It has approximately 70% of newborn deaths and 50% long-term neurological sequelae. The main cause of preterm labor is the preterm rupture of the membrane. In addition to that, there are some other risk factors too, such as multiple gestations, hypertension, anemia, cervical incompetence, prepartum hemorrhage, anomalies of fetus or uterine, heavy work, and smoking. Materials and methods: Fifty diagnosed preterm labor patients and 50 healthy subjects were enrolled for the study and subjected to analysis, including C-reactive protein and serum magnesium using Vitros 5600- Dry Chemistry Analyzer. Result: The present study reported significantly low levels of serum magnesium and higher levels of serum C-reactive protein in preterm labor patients when compared to healthy subjects. Conclusion: Findings of the present study suggest that serum C-reactive protein and serum magnesium levels can be used as a predicting tool of preterm labor.

Introduction: Obesity for centuries has had myriad implications on physical, mental, and psychosocial health. Various therapies like nutritional therapy, physical activity, pharmacotherapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy have failed in managing obesity and lead to disappointing results. Contrary to these results, bariatric surgery has shown to have a decrease in weight of 50–75%. Not only has bariatric surgery been effective in morbid obesity but it also plays a significant role in a high rate of remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus and other obesity-related comorbidities like dyslipidemia, hypertension, and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome. Materials and methods: This is a prospective study, undertaken in Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Hospital, Jaipur, from July 2017 to September 2019 after taking clearance from the Institution ethics committee. A total of 30 patients were included in this study who were morbidly obese with metabolic syndrome. The indications for surgery were according to the latest guidelines issued by the International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) for the Asian population. Results: There was a significant fall in all parameters like weight, body mass index (BMI), fasting blood sugar (FBS), HbA1c, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. The weight loss and BMI baseline were seen by the end of 12 months were 40 ± 9.3 kg and from 43.23 to 29.75, respectively, showing its statistical significance. There was a substantial decrease in baseline fasting sugar from 172 ± 19.7 to 139 ± 17.2 mg/dL. Simultaneously, a fall in HbA1c values was seen from the mean of 8.67 ± 1.1 to 6.18 ± 0.4 at the end of 1 year. There is a noteworthy improvement seen in hypertension by the end of 3rd month with mean systolic coming down to 131 ± 14 mm Hg and diastolic to 77 ± 11 mm Hg. Dyslipidemia seen in 21 patients out of 30 patients saw a 100% improvement. Therefore, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) plays a vital role in reducing morbidity and mortality by effective weight loss and control of comorbid diseases.

Background: This study was conducted to demonstrate a comparative study about graft uptake rate and hearing gain between cartilage shield tympanoplasty (CST) and tympanoplasty with temporalis fascia (TF) in patients with chronic otitis media (tubotympanic disease). Materials and methods: Cartilage shield tympanoplasty and TF tympanoplasty were studied in two groups. Group I containing 65 cases and group II having 80 cases with central perforations. Graft uptake rates and hearing improvement at 3 months postoperative follow-up were compared. Results: The graft uptake rates were 98.46 and 90% in groups I and II, respectively, at the end of 3 months. In total, 88% in group II and 90% in group I had improvement in hearing at 3 months of surgery. Conclusion: Conchal cartilage can be used effectively as a graft material for cartilage shield tympanoplasty. It has also shown superior autograft as compared to TF, not only because of better graft uptake rates and less partial failure rates but also due to the significant hearing improvement, talking in terms of mean AB gap in both types of graft materials.
