A long-standing solar problem has been to measure the coronal magnetic field. We believe it determines the coronal structure and dynamics from the upper chromosphere out into the heliospheric environment. It is only recently that Zeeman splitting observations of infrared coronal emission lines have been successfully used to deduce the coronal magnetic flux density. Here we extend this technique...

Background and Aim: Tooth discoloration induced by endodontic sealers is an un-desired outcome of endodontic treatment that affects the esthetic appearance of the teeth, which is important especially in the anterior region. The aim of the present study was to compare the coronal discoloration caused by two frequently used resin-based sealers namely EasySeal and AdSeal. Materials and Methods: F...

Coronal holes are the darkest and least active regions of the Sun, as observed both on the solar disk and above the solar limb. Coronal holes are associated with rapidly expanding open magnetic fields and the acceleration of the high-speed solar wind. This paper reviews measurements of the plasma properties in coronal holes and how these measurements are used to reveal details about the physica...

Supracondylar intercondylar distal femur fractures are devastating injuries that frequently have a concurrent coronal plane fracture, which mandates dedicated operative fixation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether small-fragment cortical lag screws oriented in the sagittal plane were sufficient to stabilize coronal plane fractures associated with supracondylar intercondylar dist...

OBJECTIVE This study investigates the effects of Nd:YAG laser irradiation combined with different irrigation protocols on the marginal seal of root fillings. BACKGROUND DATA Limited information exists regarding the effects of morphologic changes to root canal (RC) walls after Nd:YAG laser irradiation after smear-layer removal with EDTA on the sealing ability of root fillings. METHODS The 75...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess the effect of root canal preparation size and taper on the amounts of glucose penetration. MATERIAL AND METHODS For conducting this experimental study, eighty mandibular premolars with single straight canals were divided randomly into 2 experimental groups of 30 samples each and 2 control groups. Using K-files and the balance force t...
