RESUMEN
Sepsis is a complex syndrome caused by multiple pathogens and involves multiple organ failure, particularly spleen dysfunction. In 2017, the worldwide incidence was 48.9 million sepsis cases and 11 million sepsis-related deaths were reported (Rudd et al., 2020). Inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis are the most common pathologies seen in sepsis. Liensinine (LIE) is a bisbenzylisoquinoline-type alkaloid extracted from the seed embryo of Nelumbo nucifera. Lotus seed hearts have high content of LIE which mainly has antihypertensive and antiarrhythmic pharmacological effects. It can exert anti-carcinogenic activity by regulating cell, inflammation, and apoptosis signaling pathways (Manogaran et al., 2019). However, its protective effect from sepsis-induced spleen damage is unknown. In this research, we established a mouse sepsis model induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and investigated the protective effects of LIE on sepsis spleen injury in terms of inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and apoptosis.

Palatal radicular groove leads to severe endo-periodontal lesion in lateral incisors. The groove occurs on the labial and lingual root surfaces, while the localized periodontal pocket develops along the lingual groove length. The complicated root canal system, extensively destroyed bone lamella, and persistent fistula pose a challenge for root canal therapy, tooth retention, and thorough infection control inside and outside of the root canal. Combining microscopic root canal therapy with intentional replantation and nano-biomaterial application facilitates infection control, tooth retention, and formation of newly periodontal attachment.

RESUMEN
Pulpitis and periapical periodontitis is a type of bacterial infectious disease, and bacteria frequently plant in the entire root canal system during the terminal stage. Main clinical treatment strategy of the disease requires root canal therapy, a key and core procedure for the successful treatment by thoroughly removing the root canal infection. The premise and guarantee of thoroughly removing root canal infection is by determining the accurate root canal working length. However, introduction of the complexity of the apical root anatomical structure, the confusion in determining the position of apical stop, and the method to determine the root canal working length. methods of accurately determining root canal working length, especially determining the position of apical stop, has been a hot topic among endodontic specialists, frequently causing confusion among many clinicians. This review provides a brief

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of musculoskeletal disorders(MSDs)in dental postgraduates.Methods:271 dental postgraduates majoring in five different specialties(orthodontics,prosthodontics,endodontics,periodontics and alveolar surgery) with average (2.78 ±1 .57)years of clinical practice were recruited.254 age-matched non-dental postgraduates were served as the controls.The standardized Nordic questionnaire on MSDs and a self-report questionnaire regarding correlative factors were answered. Reliability of the responses was assessed by applying test-retest method.Results:The test-retest method revealed a high reliability of participants'answers with the intraclass correlation coefficient ranging from 0.89 to 0.96.Dental postgraduates had significantly higher incidence (85.6%)of MSDs than the controls(70.4%).In all included dental specialties,high prevalence of MSDs was reported at neck (47.5%-69.8%),followed by shoulders (50.8%-65.1 %),lowerback (27.1 %-51 .2%)and upper back (25.6%-46.5%).Meanwhile,the high prevalence of MSD varied in different specialties.Year of clinical work,clinical hours per week and desk hours per week were found to be the risk factors for MSDs,whereas physical exercise and rest were protective factors.Conclu-sion:MSDs with high prevelence and distinct specialty-related characteristics initiate at the early stage of dental career.Relevant measures to prevent and protect against MSDs should be taken during school-days.
