BACKGROUND Root canal irrigation carries a risk of extrusion of irrigant into the periapical tissues which can be associated with pain, swelling, and tissue damage. Studies have shown less extrusion with sonic or apical negative pressure devices compared with syringe and side-port needle or passive ultrasonic irrigation with continuous irrigant flow. This study aimed to evaluate the effectivene...

There is controversy among neurosurgeons regarding whether irrigation or drainage is necessary for achieving a lower revision rate for the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) using burr-hole craniostomy (BHC). Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis of all available published reports. Multiple electronic health databases were searched to identify all studies published between 1989 and...

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can improve the growth, productivity and tolerance of plants under stress conditions. The aim this study was to investigate effect PGPRs on physiological traits related photosynthesis, canopy temperature (CT) yield tomato hybrids water scarcity in open field Seedlings H-1015 UG 812J F1 were treated by B1, B2, B3 bacteria strains before planting, then ...

The aim of this in vitro study was to determine whether irrigation with apical negative pressure was more effective than traditional positive-pressure irrigation in eradicating Enterococcus faecalis from preshaped root canals. Fifty-four extracted mandibular molars were instrumented to produce either a non-tapered or tapered preparation, sterilized, inoculated with E. faecalis for 30 days, and ...

Damage caused by water shortages leads to physiological and biochemical changes in metabolism of plants and make them predispose to attack by pests and diseases and reduce the quality of the crops. In order to evaluate the effect of supplemental irrigation on safflower fly (A. helianthi) population of safflower cultivars, an experiment conducted as a split plot based on randomized complete bloc...

Improving winter wheat grain yield and water use efficiency (WUE) with minimum irrigation is very important for ensuring agricultural and ecological sustainability in the Northern China Plain (NCP). A three-year field experiment was conducted to determine how single irrigation can improve grain yield and WUE by manipulating the "sink-source" relationships. To achieve this, no-irrigation after s...

Drought stress (DS) is an important limiting factor for crop growth and production in some regions of the world. Limitation in water availability precludes optimal irrigation in some production regions. Therefore, investigations on the interaction of other factors to mitigate the DS to varying degree are important. Two field experiments were conducted in the experimental farm of the National Re...

During the 2003 and 2004 growing seasons, research was conducted on a 'Providence' creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) sand green at the University of Minnesota St. Paul campus to evaluate the use of ECH20 capacitance soil moisture sensors and FAO 56 ET (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Evapotranspiration) estimation in scheduling turfgrass irrigation by applying...

Background Surgical site irrigation during total hip (THA) and total knee (TKA) arthroplasty is a routine practice among orthopaedic surgeons to prevent periprosthetic joint infection. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) irrigation on infection rates following THA and TKA. Methods Arthroplasties performed before September 2014 served as contro...

In the present paper, we study an inhomogeneous pseudo-parabolic equation with nonlocal nonlinearity ut−kΔut−Δu=I0+γ(|u|p)+ω(x),(t,x)∈(0,∞)×RN,where p>1,k≥0, ω(x)≠0 and I0+γ is left Riemann–Liouville fractional integral of order γ∈(0,1). Based on test function method, have proved blow-up result for critical case γ=0,p=pc N≥3, which answers open question posed by Zhou (2020), in particular when ...
