BACKGROUND Hump reduction in aesthetic rhinoplasty destabilizes the middle vault. Secondary maneuvers are necessary to avoid the long-term functional and aesthetic sequelae of middle vault collapse. We describe a new technique of reinserting the resected hump that combines (a) placement of the modified hump between the upper laterals and (b) bridging sutures between the upper laterals. METHOD...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of spreader size on apical leakage of maxillary incisor teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 75 permanent human teeth with no carious and no fracture or crack were used for this study. After removing the crown from the cementoenamel junction and the standardization of the root lengths, the specimens were randomly divided into five groups: Group 1 - Roots w...

Is it possible to discover a local outbreak of an infectious disease in a region for which data are missing, but which is at work as a disease spreader? Node discovery for the spread of an infectious disease is defined as discriminating between the nodes which are neighboring to a missing disease spreader node, and the rest, given a dataset on the number of cases. The spread is described by sto...

Background: Nasal obstruction due to deviated septum is commonly treated with conventional septoplasty. This surgery however inadequate in cases of compromised nasal valves and leads persistent symptoms. Hence, we stressed the evaluation before septal & studied outcome patients valve area correction. Aim: To prove significance inner surgery. Objective : analyse Open Methodology:A retrospect...

Identifying the fastest spreaders in epidemics on a network helps to ensure an efficient spreading. By ranking the average spreading time for different spreaders, we show that the fastest spreader may change with the effective infection rate of a SIS epidemic process, which means that the time-dependent influence of a node is usually strongly coupled to the dynamic process and the underlying ne...

Augmenting the nasal dorsum is often a difficult task, because of the irregularities that might be visible under the thin dorsal nasal skin. Saddle noses are especially difficult to correct because of the need to provide strong structural support to the nose while at the same time achieving an aesthetic dorsum. Stable reconstruction of the cartilaginous septum is the critical challenge in the o...

BACKGROUND The efficiency of nasal surgeries can be determined by objective or subjective methods. We have assessed the effect of nasal obstruction after different nasal surgeries using Acoustic Rhinometry (AR) and Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) Scale. METHODS Between May 2011 and May 2012, 40 young adult patients and 10 healthy volunteers as control group who referred to ...
