Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine whether there is a relationship between changes in blood estrogen levels and hearing threshold levels in women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty patients with normal otoscopic examination findings and scheduled for IVF treatment were included in the study. All patients underwent pure tone audiometry, tympanogram tests, and otoacoustic emission measurements (TEOAE) during IVF treatment, and estrogen levels were measured simultaneously. The patients were divided into three groups based on estrogen levels during IVF. The patients' audiological test results at the beginning and end of treatment (the 12th day) were compared between the groups. RESULTS There was an increase in hearing levels on the 12th day of treatment compared to the beginning of treatment in all the study groups. This increase was significant between Group 1 and Group 2 and between Group 1 and Group 3 (p<0.05). The best hearing in audiometry was determined in the patients in Group 2. While a significant increase was observed in TEOAE (otoacoustic emission) measurements in Groups 1 and 2, a significant decrease was determined in Group 3 (p<0.05). Middle ear pressure and compliance measurements on the tympanogram tests were significantly lower in Group 3 compared to Groups 1 and 2 (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS During IVF treatment, as the estrogen level increases, it causes an increase in the level of hearing, but this increase does not continue after specific doses.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) anatomic stage groups have arguably been the most powerful method in predicting breast cancer outcomes. In the present study, we aimed to determine the differences between anatomical stage and clinical prognostic stage groups, which were obtained by adding biological markers such as histologic tumor grade, estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 status to patients diagnosed with breast cancer, the rate of change in stage, and the effect of stage change on survival. MATERIALS/METHODS The study protocol was sent to all radiation oncology centers in Türkiye. Four centers enrolled their patients to the study. A total of 1470 stage I-III breast cancer patients with complete information on biological markers (histologic tumor grade, hormone receptor, and c-erb B2 receptor status), haven't been treated with neoadjuvant therapy were included to the study and evaluated retrospectively. The 8th edition of AJCC consolidated biological markers in to clinical prognostic stage groups. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to estimate survival. The log-rank test was used to compare the difference between groups. The Cox proportional-hazards regression model was used to determine the association between anatomic-prognostic stage, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS). RESULTS The median follow-up time was 82 (6-237) months. Median age of the patients was 52 years (20-88) and 865 cases (58.8%) were in the postmenopausal period. The axillary lymph node status was negative (N0) in 765 patients (52.1%). Tumor grade was grade I in 200 patients (13.6%), grade II in 812 patients (55.2%) and grade III in 452 patients (30.7%). Estrogen receptor status was positive in 1247 patients (84.8%), PR status was positive in 1178 patients and Her2-neu status was positive in 207 patients (14.1%). A stage change has been identified in a total of 777 patients (52.9%). Compared with the anatomic stage groups, application of the clinical prognostic stage groups assigned 46.4% cases lower and 6.5% cases higher stage. Five- and ten-year OS and DFS rates of the patients are 73.7%, 44.3% and 91.9%, 86.3% respectively. Age (p<0.001), tumor grade (p<0.001), ER status (p<0.001), PR status (p<0.001), cerbB2 receptor status (p = 0.025) were found to be statistically significant variables in multivariable analysis for OS. For DFS, multivariable analysis showed that age (p = 0.027), tumor grade (p = 0.005), anatomical stage (p<0.001) and assigned to higher stage (p = .001) were statistically significant variables. CONCLUSION Hormone receptors and c-erb B2 receptor status are independent variables which impact OS and DFS in our patient group which is mostly consisted of early-stage cases according to anatomical stage. In prognostic staging, upstaging stands out as an independent prognostic factor for DFS. The 8th edition of AJCC prognostic stage groups determines the prognosis much better in our patient cohort.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) approach has been thoroughly researched with the aim of reducing radiation exposures to normal tissues in breast cancer patients. Although heart and lung toxicity are widely addressed in many literature, radiation-associated liver toxicity and dose constraints for the right coronary artery (RCA) are not well studied in relation to breast radiotherapy. Additionally, very few studies have investigated the relationship between doses to cardiac substructures. This study aimed to determine the effect of the DIBH technique on the right coronary artery (RCA) region, cardiac substructures, and liver dose in right breast cancer irradiation. MATERIALS/METHODS Between January 2022 and December 2022, thirty-five right breast cancer patients who previously received breast-surgery underwent computed tomography (CT) simulation with both free-breathing (FB) and DIBH techniques. Patients were contoured by a radiation oncologist on the scans using the Treatment Planning System. For cardiac substructures, reference atlas contours were used for accurate delineation and to reduce inter-observer variation. Each patient underwent two treatment plans for both the DIBH and FB datasets. The plan comprised the FB and DIBH techniques, and the doses to the cardiac substructures, ipsilateral lung, RCA region, and liver were compared using a two-tailed paired t-test. Radiotherapy was delivered with a Linac with the prescription dose of 50 Gy in 25 fractions. RESULTS For both FB and DIBH irradiation groups, the mean radiation doses to the ipsilateral lung, heart, and RCA region in patients with FB and DIBH techniques were; 14.67 Gy, 2.33 Gy, 4.88 Gy and 12.05 Gy, 1.34 Gy and 3.29 Gy respectively. The mean radiation doses to the cardiac substructures; for the left ventricle, right ventricle, left atrium, and right atrium for the FB were 1.08 Gy, 1.79 Gy, 4.11 Gy, and for DIBH, 0.49 Gy, 1.49 Gy, 0.95 Gy, and 2.61 Gy, respectively. For the DIBH group, the liver maximum dose (p<0.01), right lung mean dose (p = 0.001), heart maximum dose (p = 0.009), RCA mean dose (p = 0.020), RCA maximum dose (p = 0.008), RCA V5 dose (p = 0.035), right atrium maximum dose (p = 0.009) and right ventricle mean dose (p = 0.040) were significantly lower than in patients treated in the non-gated group. CONCLUSION DIBH resulted in considerable displacement of the liver away from the high-dose target region, such that the volume of liver in the high-dose region was reduced. Additionally, the use of the DIBH technique in right breast cancer irradiation effectively reduces the radiation doses to the cardiac substructures, such as the left ventricle, right ventricle, left atrium, right atrium, RCA region, and lungs. DIBH could lead to substantial sparing of these structures with the right breast cancer radiotherapy. Future prospective studies are required to determine whether improvements to dose-distribution will translate into improved toxicity outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Non-functioning pituitary neuroendocrine tumors are challengingly diagnosed tumors in the clinic. Transsphenoidal surgery remains the first-line treatment. Despite the development of state-of-the-art techniques, no drug therapy is currently approved for the treatment. There are also no randomized controlled trials comparing therapeutic strategies or drug therapy for the management after surgery. Therefore, novel therapeutic interventions for the therapeutically challenging NF-PitNETs are urgently needed. METHODS We integrated epigenome and transcriptome data (both coding and non-coding) that elucidate disease-specific signatures, in addition to biological and pharmacological data, to utilize rational pathway and drug prioritization in NF-PitNETs. We constructed an epigenome- and transcriptome-based PPI network and proposed hub genes. The signature-based drug repositioning based on the integration of multi-omics data was performed. RESULTS The construction of a disease-specific network based on three different biological levels revealed DCC, DLG5, ETS2, FOXO1, HBP1, HMGA2, PCGF3, PSME4, RBPMS, RREB1, SMAD1, SOCS1, SOX2, YAP1, ZFHX3 as hub proteins. Signature-based drug repositioning using hub proteins yielded repositioned drug candidates that were confirmed in silico via molecular docking. As a result of molecular docking simulations, palbociclib, linifanib, trametinib, eplerenone, niguldipine, and zuclopenthixol showed higher binding affinities with hub genes compared to their inhibitors and were proposed as potential repositioned therapeutics for the management of NF-PitNETs. CONCLUSION The proposed systems' biomedicine-oriented multi-omics data integration for drug repurposing to provide promising results for the construction of effective clinical therapeutics. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study reporting epigenome- and transcriptome-based drug repositioning for NF-PitNETs using in silico confirmations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) cases with a normal CT scanning account for the vast majority of all TBI patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the course of serum Phosphorylated Neurofilament Heavy Chain (pNF-H) levels in the first six hours after trauma in rats in experimental mTBI. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this experimental animal study, 32 female Sprague-Dawley rats were enrolled equally (n=8) into 3 experimental groups and 1 control group. In experimental groups, animals were exposed to a mTBI with a free fall of 50-gram metal disc from a height of 80 cm. We compared serum pNF-H levels at the 2nd, 4th, and 6th hours after traumatic brain injury in the experimental groups with the control group. RESULTS Serum pNF-H levels at the 2nd and 4th hours after traumatic brain injury were statistically significantly higher than the control group. Serum pNF-H levels gradually decreased at the 4th and 6th hours compared to the 2nd hour and decreased to a similar level to the control group at the 6th hour after injury. CONCLUSIONS A high serum pNF-H value, could be used in the diagnosis and management of mTBI patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
To examine the utility of a range of expanded screening panels for oocyte donors.
Summary answer
Expanded carrier screening with NGS data identified that 86% of gamete donors were carriers of at least one condition while 302 genes were tested.
What is known already
The level of genetic testing for oocyte donors is not regulated in most countries. The use of expanded carrier screening is recommended more widely. If the egg donor is a carrier, there is a 50% chance that the offspring will also be carriers. Expanded carrier screening is performed to determine the potential effects of positive carrier status, which guarantees safety for future pregnancy. From practical experience, more genes are tested for a donor, more potential mutations are detected.
Study design, size, duration
A cohort of 92 potential oocyte donor applicants aged 18-30 years old, who were qualified for oocyte donation after full screening, tested negative on an initial cystic fibrosis carrier test for 11 most common CFTR mutations (PCR panel), was further screened with expanded commercial carrier testing panel (302 genes) using next-generation sequencing (NGS) data.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
A cohort of 92 potential oocyte donor applicants aged 18-30 years old, who tested negative on an initial cystic fibrosis carrier test for 11 most common CFTR mutations (PCR panel), was further screened with expanded commercial carrier testing panel (302 genes) using next-generation sequencing (NGS) data.
Main results and the role of chance
Genotyping results for all donors were analyzed; 38% (35/92) of donors were identified as carriers for one condition, 34% (31/92)- for two conditions, 7% (6/92)- for three conditions and 7% (6/92)- for four conditions, including cystic fibrosis. Among the most prevalent conditions in our study were: Hemochromatosis: Type 1: HFE Related- 22%, Cystic Fibrosis: CFTR-related conditions 11%, Biotinidase deficiency– 7,6%, 21-Hydroxilase-Deficient Congenital Nonclassical Adrenal Hyperplasia- 6,5%, Krabbe disease – 6,5%, Usher syndrome: USH2A-related conditions – 6,5%, Nonsyndromic deafness: GJB2- related conditions- 5,4% and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (5,4%).
Limitations, reasons for caution
Each donor was consented for genetic testing
Wider implications of the findings
This study shows a need to provide the explicit requirement for oocyte donor genetic testing and guidelines to satisfy quality and safety and not reduce the number of donors carries of mutations, but to implement a practice of genetic matching.

Abstract
We should describe war as an attack maneuver by two countries or organizations against each other in line with their mutual interests when giving it significance. What is going on in Ukraine is more than a war; it is people's effort to defend their future, past from this genocide attacks which done by Russian Federation.
Russian Federation’s attacks not only damage all healthcare and scientific institutions but also make any future advancement in healthcare impossible. Millions of Ukrainians and foreigners residing, working, and living in the country were uprooted and forced to flee. While the strikes rendered general healthcare and fertility services inoperable, they also made protecting and maintaining all stored gametes and embryos challenging. Many infertility patients and thousands of IVF couples who have undergone oncofertility cryopreservation have been put at risk due to these attacks.
While what happened in Ukraine affects thousands of infertility patients worldwide, the horrific situations faced by hundreds of IVF specialists, embryologists, nurses, and other allied healthcare workers, along with the losses they have suffered and the uncertainty of their future, reveal that the situation is far more than a war and that it is a genocide situation that no one who values life should accept.
Embryologists were trying to freeze embryos and gametes at different developmental stages of dozens of patients in their incubators on February 24, when the Russian Federation’s attacks started, ignoring the vital risks, again, on the day of the war beginning, and IVF specialists who performed egg collection and embryo transfer procedures for all patients who were in that day before, as well as all the other healthcare workers who took part in this process — they all showed how professionally and willingly the IVF service in Ukraine is provided. When the attacks became more intense in the days ahead, hundreds of Ukrainian embryologists risked their lives and the lives of their families to transport frozen samples to secure regions within the country and even beyond, sending a powerful message to the entire world.
Expert embryologists moved all frozen components to secure locations, adhering to all safety regulations and regularly monitoring temperature and liquid nitrogen levels. It is impossible to say that this transportation method is not at risk from attacks. The transfer process was carried out fully to protect patients, with individual decisions made without acquiring patient consent forms or essential approvals due to the urgency of the decisions made from the moment the attacks had begun.
The samples obtained abroad, on the other hand, were transported to European countries after all of the necessary legal registrations and procedures were completed at customs, following long and exhausting land journeys. Storage tanks that can be transferred within Ukraine were moved to western cities and secured in clinics with medical licenses. Samples were also secured in clinics with medical licenses outside of Ukraine, and all essential legal documents and regulations were completed.
While over 70,000 frozen embryos have been carried abroad, over 10,000 frozen eggs have been transported for egg banking. Thousands of testicular tissue samples and hundreds of ovarian tissue samples were also transported. In Ukraine, thousands of frozen embryo and sperm samples are now successfully preserved. So far, no embryo harm or difficulties with liquid nitrogen delivery have been recorded. However, if Russian Federation’s attacks continue, the difficulties will inevitably worsen, putting hundreds of frozen patient samples in danger.
Hundreds of embryologists, IVF specialists, nurses, and paramedics were also laid off, and many were forced to flee the country. The Russian Federation’s attacks on the Ukrainian people have put human lives and the future prospects of countless infertility patients in jeopardy.

Abstract
Aim The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effectiveness of different irrigation techniques EndoVac, RinsEndo, Canal CleanMax (CCMax), SonicMax, Passive Ultrasonic Irrigation (PUI), and Manual Needle Irrigation (MNI) on dentin erosion and smear layer removal using Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Materials and Methods Seventy extracted single-rooted teeth were instrumented with ProTaper rotary instruments. The roots were randomly divided into six experimental groups (n = 10): EndoVac, RinsEndo, CCMax, SonicMax, PUI, and MNI. Final irrigation was performed with NaOCl followed by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and NaOCl. Six roots served as control and were irrigated with only NaOCl. Next, the roots were sectioned in a buccolingual direction and the halves were examined by SEM. Smear layer and erosion scores were recorded in the cervical, middle and apical third of the roots. Data analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U-tests with a level of significance α = 0.05. Results PUI had the greatest amount of smear layer compared to other groups (P < 0.001). However, SonicMax had the greatest degree of erosion compared to RinsEndo, MNI, PUI, and EndoVac groups (P < 0.001) and CCMax group (P < 0.05). Conclusions RinsEndo and EndoVac techniques left the least amount of smear layer while causing erosion the least compared to CCMax, PUI, and MNI techniques.

Abstract
The role of the host immune system in caries progression is mainly speculative, and it is believed that it entails the enzymatic degradation of the dentin organic matrix. The aim of this study was to evaluate the proteolytic effect of human neutrophil enzymes on root caries progression. For this, specimens of bovine root dentin were divided into 4 groups (n = 30): caries (C), caries + neutrophils (C + N), no caries (Control), and no caries + neutrophils (Control + N). Streptococcus mutans biofilm (105 CFU/mL) was grown on the root surface to artificially induce root carious lesions (C and C + N groups). Specimens were then exposed to neutrophils (5 × 106 cells/mL) for 48 h (C + N and Control + N groups). Caries development and neutrophil exposures were repeated a 2nd and 3rd time. Caries depth (CD) and dentin demineralization (DD) were assessed by infiltration of rhodamine B using fluorescence microscopy. Collagen fibril ultrastructure was characterized under a polarized microscope with Picrosirius red staining. There were no significant differences (p > 0.05) in CD and DD between the C and C + N groups for 1, 2, and 3 caries-neutrophil exposures. Immature collagen was significantly less present in the carious groups (C, p = 0.003; C + N, p = 0.01) than in the noncarious groups in the most superficial 200 µm. We thus concluded that human neutrophil enzymes did not influence short-term root caries progression, and immature collagen fibrils were more susceptible to degradation during S. mutans-induced root caries progression.

Abstract
A dentin biomodification strategy with selective proanthocyanidin (PAC)-enriched extracts reinforces dentin and dentin-resin interfaces. Enrichment of the extracts according to the degree of polymerization allows exploration of bioactive principles of PACs and structure-activity relationships. This study investigated the sustained dentin matrix biomodification and dentin-resin bioadhesion of 2 fractions consisting exclusively of B-type PAC dimers with or without a single galloyl motif (specifically, DIMERG and DIMERNG) and their precursor material, enriched grape seed extract (e-GSE; Vitis vinifera). The biomodification potential was determined by long-term evaluation of the apparent modulus of elasticity and collagen solubility (hydroxyproline release). Chemical characterization of the dentin matrix was performed by attenuated total reflectance-Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The bioadhesive properties were assessed by a microtensile bond strength test at different time points, and macro-hybrid layers were produced to verify the degree of conversion of the adhesive resin. Fractions consisting of DIMERG, DIMERNG, and their precursor, e-GSE, increased the modulus of elasticity at all time points and reduced collagen degradation. Specimens treated with DIMERNG remained stable throughout 12 mo of storage, whereas a significant drop in the modulus of elasticity was observed for the DIMERG and e-GSE groups at 6 mo. The fractions and precursor did not affect the degree of resin conversion at the hybrid layer. Changes in infrared resonances corresponding to collagen cross-links in the dentin matrix occurred for all treatments. Higher bond strength was observed for dentin treated with e-GSE as compared with DIMERG and DIMERNG; all biointerfaces remained stable after 12 mo. Nongalloylated PACs mediate stable dentin biomodification, which includes protective activity against collagen degradation and reinforcement of the anchoring dentin matrix. Collectively, PACs with a higher degree of oligomerization offer a robust bioadhesion between the hydrophilic dentin matrix and the hydrophobic adhesive.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The interactivity of proanthocyanidins (PACs) with collagen modulates dentin matrix biomechanics and biostability. Herein, PAC extracts selected based on structural diversity were investigated to determine key PAC features driving sustained effects on dentin matrices over a period of 18months. METHODS The chemical profiles of PAC-rich plant sources, Pinus massoniana (PM), Cinnamomum verum (CV) and Hamamelis virginiana (HV) barks, as well as Vitis vinifera (VV) seeds, were obtained by diol HPLC analysis after partitioning of the extracts between methyl acetate and water. Dentin matrices (n=15) were prepared from human molars to determine the apparent modulus of elasticity over 18months of aging. Susceptibility of the dentin matrix to degradation by endogenous and exogenous proteases was determined by presence of solubilized collagen in supernatant, and resistance to degradation by bacterial collagenase, respectively. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Games-Howell post hoc tests (α=0.05). RESULTS After 18months, dentin matrices modified by PM and CV extracts, containing only non-galloylated PACs, were highly stable mechanically (p<0.05). Dentin matrices treated with CV exhibited the lowest degradation by bacterial collagenase after 1h and 18months of aging (p<0.05), while dentin matrices treated with PM showed the least mass loss and collagen solubilization by endogenous enzymes over time (p<0.05). SIGNIFICANCE Resistance against long-term degradation was observed for all experimental groups; however, the most potent and long-lasting dentin biomodification resulted from non-galloylated PACs.

Abstract
As the popularity of the personal watercraft (PWC) or Jet Ski increases, injuries suffered from the usage of them become more common. Most severe injuries in this setting are typically related to blunt head trauma. Here we present an unusual case of hydrostatic injury to the rectum and sigmoid colon due to exposure to a high-pressure jet stream of water in a passenger thrown from the rear of a PWC. In addition, a review of the literature of similar cases is briefly discussed. (Hong Kong j.emerg.med. 2014;21:322-325)

Abstract
PURPOSE To establish a fluorescence-based method to simultaneously assess micro-permeability and collagen cross-linking induced by chemical agents at the resin-dentin interface. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three chemical agents were investigated (proanthocyanidin-rich grape seed extract: GSE; carbodiimide hydrochloride/N-hydroxysuccinimide: EDC/NHS; glutaraldehyde: GD) along with a control (distilled water) as primers applied on flat occlusal dentin surfaces of 48 teeth and restored with two commercially available etch-and-rinse adhesives. Resin-dentin interfaces were polished and infiltrated with rhodamine-B solution for confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis. Parameters were chosen that would allow acquisition of a simultaneous appearance of collagen and interfacial micro-permeability (rhodamine-B). Fluorescence emission intensity (FEI) was converted into numerals and values were calculated for each group. Data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA and post-hoc Scheffe's and multiple comparisons tests (α = 0.05). T-tests with Pearson correlations were used to investigate correlations between collagen cross-linking and micro-permeability. RESULTS The FEI of collagen was the highest for GD, followed by GSE, with no significant differences between EDC/ NHS and the control group (p > 0.05). Micro-permeability was significantly affected by the adhesives (p < 0.05). Micro- permeability was the lowest for GSE groups, regardless of the adhesives (p < 0.001). Weak correlations were found between micro-permeability and collagen auto-fluorescence. CONCLUSIONS Non-enzymatic collagen cross-linking induced by GSE and GD can be detected by increased collagen auto-fluorescence, and results in reduced interfacial micro-permeability. Increased collagen auto-fluorescence was correlated with fluorescent collagen cross-links and decreased micro-permeability at the resin-dentin interface. Collagen auto-fluorescence is a useful tool to detect auto-fluorescent exogenous cross links and their potential impact on the quality of the resin-dentin interface.

Abstract
PURPOSE To test the efficacy of debris removal of 5 in vitro irrigation protocols: conventional irrigation, irrigation activated by ultrasound, Er:YAG laser with photon-induced photoacoustic streaming (PIPS) tip, and 2 diode laser techniques. METHODS The root canals of 75 extracted human canine teeth were enlarged and bisected longitudinally. Standardized grooves were prepared 2-6 mm from the root apex and filled with 0.5 mm of dentine debris. The teeth were reassembled and irrigated using 1 of the following techniques (n = 15/technique): (1) conventional irrigation, (2) diode laser irrigation - tip placed 2 mm from working length, (3) diode laser irrigation - tip placed at root canal orifice, (4) Er:YAG laser - PIPS, and (5) ultrasonically activated irrigation. The root segments were disassembled, and the amount of remaining debris was evaluated by 3 examiners under a stereomicroscope at ×20 magnification using a 4-grade scoring system. The data were statistically analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's multiple comparison tests, with a 95% confidence level (p = 0.05). Cohen's kappa test was used to evaluate inter-observer and intra-observer agreement. RESULTS Ultrasonically activated irrigation removed significantly more dentinal debris than conventional irrigation (p = 0.016), but there were no significant differences between the other groups. CONCLUSIONS Ultrasonically activated irrigation was more effective than conventional irrigation in the removal of apically placed dentine debris.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To sustain the bioactivity of proanthocyanidins-rich plant-derived extracts via encapsulation within biodegradable polymer microcapsules. METHODS Polylactide microcapsules containing grape seed extract (GSE) were manufactured using a combination of double emulsion and solvent evaporation techniques. Microcapsule morphology, size distribution, and cross-section were examined via scanning electron microscopy. UV-vis measurements were carried out to evaluate the core loading and encapsulation efficiency of microcapsules. The bioactivity of extracts was evaluated after extraction from capsules via solvent partitioning one week or one year post-encapsulation process. Fifteen human molars were cut into 7mm×1.7mm×0.5mm thick mid-coronal dentin beams, demineralized, and treated with either encapsulated GSE, pristine GSE, or left untreated. The elastic modulus of dentin specimens was measured based on three-point bending experiments as an indirect assessment of the bioactivity of grape seed extracts. The effects of the encapsulation process and storage time on the bioactivity of extracts were analyzed. RESULTS Polynuclear microcapsules with average diameter of 1.38μm and core loading of up to 38wt% were successfully manufactured. There were no statistically significant differences in the mean fold increase of elastic modulus values among the samples treated with encapsulated or pristine GSE (p=0.333), or the storage time (one week versus one year storage at room temperature, p=0.967). SIGNIFICANCE Polynuclear microcapsules containing proanthocyanidins-rich plant-derived extracts were prepared. The bioactivity of extracts was preserved after microencapsulation.

Abstract
Oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPACs) are potent and renewable natural bioactives possible to be refined into chemically standardized mixtures for biological applications. Herein, we found that multiscale interactions of OPACs with the dentin matrix create tight biointerfaces with hydrophobic methacrylate adhesives on wet surfaces. An enriched mixture of OPACs, with a known phytochemical profile, was produced from grape seed crude extract ( Vitis vinifera; enriched grape seed extract [e-GSE]) and applied to dentin matrices to determine changes to the mechanical properties and biodegradability of the dentin matrix and favorable resin adhesion mechanisms. Methods included a 3-point flexural test, quantification of hydroxyproline (collagen solubilization), static and dynamic nanomechanical analyses, resin-dentin microtensile bond strength, and micropermeability at the adhesive interface. The e-GSE-modified dentin matrix exhibited remarkably low collagen solubilization and sustained the bulk elastic properties over 12 mo. Tan δ findings reveal a more elastic-like behavior of the e-GSE-modified dentin matrix, which was not affected by H-bond destabilization by urea. Dentin-methacrylate biointerfaces with robust and stable adhesion were created on e-GSE-primed dentin surfaces, leading to a dramatic decrease of the interfacial permeability. Standardized OPAC mixtures provide a new mechanism of adhesion to type I collagen-rich tissues that does not rely on hydrophilic monomers. The bioadhesion mechanism involves physicochemical modifications to the dentin matrix, reduced tissue biodegradation, and bridging to methacrylate resins.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Collagen cross-linkings are determinant of biological tissue stability and function. Plant-derived proanthocyanidins (PACs) mimic different hierarchical levels of collagen cross-links by non-enzymatic interactions resulting in the enhancement to the biomechanics and biostability of collagen-rich tissues such as dentin. This study investigated the interaction of PACs from Vitis vinifera grape seed extract with type I collagen in solubilized form and in the demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) by fluorescence spectral analysis; collagen-collagen binding forces in presence of cross-linking solutions by atomic force microscopy (AFM); and spectroscopic analysis of the DDM using attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). Glutaraldehyde (GA) and carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) with known cross-linking mechanisms were selected for comparative analyses. Changes in fluorescence upon interaction of solubilized type I collagen with PACs, EDC and GA reflected pronounced modifications in collagen conformation. PACs also promoted stronger collagen-collagen fibrils interaction than EDC and GA. A new feature was observed using ATR-FTIR spectroscopic analysis in PACs-treated collagen and DDM. The findings suggest covalent interactions between collagen and PACs. The mechanisms of interaction between PACs-collagen hold attractive and promising tissue-tailored biomedical applications and the binding forces that potentially drive such interaction were characterized. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Connective tissues such as skin, bone and dentin are mainly composed of type I collagen, which is cross-linked to promote tissue stability, strength and function. Novel therapies using substances that mimic cross-links have been proposed to promote repair of collagen-based-tissues. In dentistry, naturally occurring proanthocyanidins (PACs) have the potential to enhance dentin mechanical properties and reduce its enzymatic degradation, but their mechanisms of cross-linking are unclear. The present study investigated the specific interactions between PACs-type I collagen in purified and dentin collagen and compared to the well described cross-linking mechanisms promoted by synthetic chemical substances. Findings reveal that covalent-like bonds are induced by plant PACs in type I collagen as well as in complex dental native tissue, promoting strong collagen-collagen interactions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to evaluate the time-dependent effectiveness of the intracanal medicaments used in pulp revascularization on the dislocation resistance of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). METHODS One hundred ninety-two extracted human maxillary incisor teeth were sectioned apically 12 mm below and coronally 2 mm above the cemento-enamel junction. Roots were enlarged to size 40 (Protaper F4). Next, Peeso reamers from #1 to #5 were used sequentially. Sodium hypochlorite (2.5 %), EDTA (17 %), and distilled water were used in final irrigation. The specimens were randomly divided into four groups (n = 48): Group 1, in which triple antibiotic paste (TAP) (ciprofloxacin + metronidazole + minocycline) was prepared and delivered into the canals using a lentulo spiral; Group 2, in which double antibiotic paste (DAP) (ciprofloxacin + metronidazole) was placed into the canals; Group 3, in which calcium hydroxide paste (CH) (calcium hydroxide + distilled water) was introduced into the roots; and Group 4 (control), in which no medicament was applied into the root canals. Then, the samples were kept in saline solution for 2, 4, and 12 weeks, after which time 16 roots were selected randomly from each group, representing the samples of each time point. After removal of the medicaments, MTA was placed into the coronal third of the roots, and the samples were incubated for 7 days. A push-out test was used to measure the dislocation resistance (DR) of MTA. The data were analyzed using a two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's pairwise comparisons (p = 0.05). RESULTS The time factor displayed a significant effect on the DR of MTA (p < 0.05). All medicaments resulted in significantly smaller DR values after 12 weeks compared to after 1 week (p < 0.05). A significant unfavorable effect of TAP and DAP was observed as early as 2 weeks after the application, while 2 and 4 weeks after the application of CH there was no effect on the DR of MTA. No significant differences were found between the time points in the control group (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION The type and the intracanal duration of medicaments used for pulp revascularization should be chosen carefully to provide maximum antimicrobial effect while creating a favorable environment both for stem cell attachment and MTA adhesion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is an abdominal-vascular emergency which is rare and has high mortality rates (60-80 %) due to late diagnosis (1-3). Although it is known that extravascular reasons like intestinal intussusception, volvulus, strangulated hernias and obstructions can cause intestinal gangrene, these are rarely the cause of AMI (1). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, we used male Wistar-Albino rats weighing 250-300 grams obtained from Pamukkale University Experimental Research Laboratory. Animals were exposed to light-dark cycles for 12 hours and had free access to food and water. They were kept in cages for 7 days to stabilise their intestinal flora. In animals of group I, nothing was made other than taking 0.5 ml blood intracardially. In other animals, abdomen was reached with midline laparotomy and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) was located. In group II (operative control group), SMA was isolated and manipulated but was not ligated. In Group III (intestinal ischemia group), SMAwas isolated and ligated with 3/0 silk tie distally to the aorta. After this process, intestinal ischemia was achieved which was confirmed by paleness and pulselessness of intestines, caecum and right colon. Later on, abdomen was closed with double 3/0 polyglactin sutures. At postoperative 1st, 4th and 6th hours 0.5 ml blood was taken intracardially from the animals in groups II and III in order to quantify D-dimer and L-lactate levels. LABORATORY TESTS D-dimer: Blood samples which were put into tubes containing sodium citrate, were seperated from plasma with centrifugation at 4000 rpm for 7 minutes.L-lactate: Blood L-lactate levels were determined from blood taken into capillary tubes with the help of immobilised enzyme electrode technology using YSI 1500 Sport portative lactate analyzer (Yellow Springs Instruments Inc., Ohio-USA). HISTOPATHOLOGIC VERIFICATION Two cm long intestinal samples were taken from animals in which SMA was ligated in order to achieve mesenteric ischemia and these samples were fixed in 10 % formol. DISCUSSION As a result, in rats with SMA occlusion serum D-dimer levels were not increased significantly when compared either in the group or with the basal values of the control group and values in operative control group. Therefore, it is concluded that D-dimer is not a useful marker for early diagnosis of AMI. On the other hand, it is revealed that blood L-lactate levels began to increase significantly following 4th hour of mesenteric ischemia and it is shown that this increase continued at the 6th hour. In addition, considering the utmost importance of the early diagnosis in patients with the clinical suspicion of AMI, L-lactate seems to be a suitable marker to use in emergency departments because it is achieved with a portable device that gives fast and accurate results. Nevertheless, our results are need to be supported by clinical studies with larger patient series (Tab. 2, Fig. 11, Ref. 39).

Abstract
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 were not instrumented. Group 2 - Root canals were enlarged using the step-back technique to a #40 file and filled using cold lateral compaction (CLC) of gutta-percha (GP). Group 3 - During the filling procedure, the first spreader used was size 40. Group 4 - The first spreader used was size 35. Group 5 - The initial spreader used was size 25. The amount of leakage through the filled root canals was evaluated by computerized fluid filtration model. Statistical analyzes were done using Kruskal–Wallis test and Mann–Whitney test (P < 0.05). Results: There were statistically significant differences among the groups (P < 0.05). While the uninstrumented group (Group 1) had no leakage, instrumented but not filled roots (Group 2) demonstrated the highest leakage values. There were no differences between Group 3 and 4. Group 5 showed significantly less leakage than Group 3 and 4. Conclusion: Spreader size used during CLC of GP appeared to be a significant factor on apical leakage of roots. Using smaller size spreader during CLC may provide relatively less leakage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Serious health problems in humans are caused by arsenic (As) exposure, which is wide spread in the environment. Sodium arsenite (SAs), capable of inducing macromolecular damage is evaluated for its damaging effect in the blood vessels, liver and kidneys of Wistar rats. This study was undertaken to investigate the ameliorative effects of thymoquinone on SAs-induced oxidative and inflammatory damages in the serum of male Wistar rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Wistar Albino rats divided into three groups of nine rats each were administered to controls saline (10 mg/kg), SAs (10 mg/kg), and SAs plus thymoquinone (10 mg/kg/day) for two weeks orally. Biochemical tests were analyzed by a otoanalyzer; nitric oxide levels specthrophometrically, and cytokines were measured by ELISA method in the rat serum samples. RESULTS Inflammatory cytokines and some biochemical variables were found to be increased in the SAs group compared to control group. On the other hand, thymoquinone supressed these laboratory signs, which are thought to be the characteristic signs of SAs toxicity, most probably by its ameliorative effects including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. CONCLUSIONS From the results obtained, thymoquinone mitigates SAs-induced adverse effects in the serum of rats, which suggest that it may attenuate inflammation implicated in endotelial dysfunction.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to describe maternal and fetal characteristics associated with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) and to determine clinical and biochemical predictors of fetal complications. A total of 89 singleton pregnancies with ICP were analysed, retrospectively. All data concerning laboratory results, symptom onset time, treatment response, delivery time and infant information were recorded in the study protocol. The mean gestational age at diagnosis was 32.6 ± 3.4 weeks; mean time of delivery was 36.8 ± 1.9 weeks. Binary logistic regression revealed that gestational age at diagnosis was predictive of preterm delivery (OR = 2.3, 95% CI: 1.5-3.3, p = 0.001). The incidence of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), fetal growth restriction, fetal distress and preterm delivery were significantly higher in patients who were diagnosed before 30 weeks than after 34 weeks' gestation (p < 0.01). Gestational age at diagnosis is an important independent factor predicting adverse perinatal outcomes in patients with ICP.

Abstract
Defects in the corneal stroma caused by trauma or diseases such as macular corneal dystrophy and keratoconus can be detrimental for vision. Development of therapeutic methods to enhance corneal regeneration is essential for treatment of these defects. This paper describes a bioactive peptide nanofiber scaffold system for corneal tissue regeneration. These nanofibers are formed by self-assembling peptide amphiphile molecules containing laminin and fibronectin inspired sequences. Human corneal keratocyte cells cultured on laminin-mimetic peptide nanofibers retained their characteristic morphology, and their proliferation was enhanced compared with cells cultured on fibronectin-mimetic nanofibers. When these nanofibers were used for damaged rabbit corneas, laminin-mimetic peptide nanofibers increased keratocyte migration and supported stroma regeneration. These results suggest that laminin-mimetic peptide nanofibers provide a promising injectable, synthetic scaffold system for cornea stroma regeneration.

Abstract
Treacher Collins syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder of craniofacial development with an incidence of I in 40,000 to in 70,000 live births. It is characterized by abnormalities of the pinnae which are frequently associated with atresia of the external auditory canals and anomalies of the middle ear ossicles. Rarely congenital heart defects can be present. Prenatal paroxetine exposure may enhance the risks of major malformation, particularly cardiac defects. This article reports a newborn, whose mother used paroxetine during pregnancy, presenting with multiple congenital heart defects associated to typical physical characteristics of Treacher Collins syndrome.

Abstract
Crisponi syndrome (CS) is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder, characterized by hyperthermia, extensive muscular contractions in the face after even minimal stimuli or crying, hypertonia, opisthotonus, camptodactyly, and typical facial features. Recently, it has been demonstrated that CRLF1 (cytokine receptor-like factor 1) gene mutation is associated with CS. Here we report a case of CS with a new mutation in the CRLF1 gene associated with moderate clinical phenotype.

Abstract
Renal hypoplasia is a congenital anomaly, the etiology of which is not yet fully known. Genetic studies have shown that certain genes, in utero environmental factors and molecular mechanisms have a role in the identification ofnephron formation and kidney size. The coexistence of bilateral renal hypoplasia and optic disc coloboma is observed in papillorenal syndrome, which caused by the mutation of the PAX2 gene. In the case presented in this article, bilateral renal hypoplasia and optic disc coloboma have been detected to coexist. The analysis of the PAX2 gene, which was carried out with an eye to the papillorenal syndrome, did not reveal any mutations. However, de novo t(2;15) (q31; q26) (reciprocal translocation) was detected in chromosome analysis. As far as we know, there are not any publications focusing on the clinical importance of this type of translocation. In cases with renal hypoplasia and optic disc coloboma, the possibility of a de novo translocation between chromosomes 2 and 15 should be considered.

Abstract
Pierson syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder which is mainly characterized by congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS), diffuse mesangial sclerosis (DMS) and distinct ocular abnormalities, including microcoria. Most affected children exhibit early onset of chronic renal failure, neurodevelopmental deficits, and blindness. It is caused by a homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the gene encoding laminin beta2 (LAMB2) on chromosome 3p21. In this article, we report on a patient with CNS, bilateral megalocornea and microcoria. The patient had developed renal failure at very early postnatal period and died of septic shock. A novel homozygous donor splice mutation (IVS4 + 2T > C) in LAMB2 gene was identified in the patient.

Abstract
The heptapeptide ARHPHPH was identified from biofilms and planktonic cultures of two different strains of Enterococcus faecalis, V583 and ATCC 29212, using matrix assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). ARHPHPH was also imaged at the boundary of cocultured, adjacent E. faecalis and Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922) biofilms, appearing only on the E. faecalis side. ARHPHPH was proteolyzed from κ-casein, a component in the growth media, by E. faecalis microbes. Additionally, top down and bottom up proteomic approaches were combined to identify and spatially locate multiple proteins within intact E. faecalis V583 biofilms by MALDI-MS. The resultant tandem MS data were searched against the NCBInr E. faecalis V583 database to identify thirteen cytosolic and membrane proteins which have functional association with the cell surface. Two of these proteins, enolase and GAPDH, are glycolytic enzymes known to display multiple functions in bacterial virulence in related bacterial strains. This work illustrates a powerful approach for discovering and localizing multiple peptides and proteins within intact biofilms.

Abstract
The potential of laser desorption postionization mass spectrometry (LDPI-MS) imaging for small molecule quantification is demonstrated here. The N-methylpiperazine acetamide (MPA) of ampicillin was adsorbed into polyelectrolyte multilayer surface coatings composed of chitosan and alginate, both high molecular weight biopolymers. These MPA-ampicillin spiked multilayers were then shown to inhibit the growth of Enterococcus faecalis biofilms that play a role in early stage infection of implanted medical devices. Finally, LDPI-MS imaging using 7.87 eV single-photon ionization was found to detect MPA-ampicillin within the multilayers before and after biofilm growth with limits of quantification and detection of 0.6 and 0.3 nmol, respectively. The capabilities of LDPI-MS imaging for small molecule quantification are compared to those of MALDI-MS. Furthermore, these results indicate that 7.87 eV LDPI-MS imaging should be applicable to quantification of a range of small molecular species on a variety of complex organic and biological surfaces. Finally, while MS imaging for quantification was demonstrated here using LDPI, it is a generally useful strategy that can be applied to other methods.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the safety and efficacy of perioperative dexmedetomidine (Dex) sedation on patient comfort and surgeon satisfaction during cataract surgery under topical anesthesia. METHODS Forty-four patients having routine clear corneal phacoemulsification surgery under topical anesthesia were included in the study. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: Dex group (n=22) and control group (n=22). Patients in the Dex group were to receive intravenous Dex using an infusion pump and those in the control group were to receive 0.9% saline infusion. Primary outcome measures were patient comfort, surgeon satisfaction, and patient pain perception. RESULTS There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of baseline characteristics including age, sex, eye side, pupil diameter, and vital signs (p>0.05 for all). Patient comfort and surgeon satisfaction in Dex group was better than in control group (p=0.042 and p=0.003, respectively). The mean pain perception score was lesser in the Dex group (1.23+-.72) than control group (3.64+/-1.43), (p<0.001). The mean surgical time and intraoperative complications were similar in both groups (p>0.05). There was no significant effect of the Dex sedation on vital signs perioperatively (p>0.05 for all). CONCLUSIONS Dex sedation improved patient and surgeon satisfaction and decreased patients' pain perception while undergoing cataract surgery under topical anesthesia. It appears to be a safe and suitable choice of sedation for cataract surgery.
