This paper addresses some practical aspects of making Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) more accessible to design engineers and analysts. An interactive parametric design-through-analysis platform is proposed to help design engineers and analysts make more effective use of IGA to improve their product design and performance. We develop several Rhino 3D plug-ins with a user-friendly interface to take ...

Objectives This study sought to investigate the proportion of patients with suspected sinusitis referred for radiological examination who have radiologically verified sinusitis of odontogenic origin and to describe this type of sinusitis. Study Design This investigation is a retrospective study. Methods A total of 303 sinus examinations involving cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) perform...

The world today is going through a series of uncalled events, that has hindered the balance livelihood in current population. This due to emergence COVID-19 but along with that, accompanied several other rare and extremely fatal fungal infections under its shadows, such as Mucormycosis. Mucormycosis caused particularly immunocompromised hosts by saprophytic fungi Mucorales species. infection le...

INTRODUCTION Dental pain originating from the maxillary sinuses can pose a diagnostic problem. Periapical lesion development eliciting inflammatory changes in the mucosal lining can cause the development of a sinusitis. The purpose of this study was to describe the radiographic characteristics of odontogenic maxillary sinusitis as seen on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans and to determ...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate how clinical features such as sex, age, etiologic factors, and presenting symptoms of odontogenic sinusitis are differentiated from other types of sinusitis. Also, this study was designed to find methods for reducing the incidence of odontogenic sinusitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective chart analysis was completed on twenty-seven patien...

UNLABELLED Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) causes immunosuppression and predisposition to sinusitis. CT scans are complementary exams used in the diagnosis of sinusitis; however, its use in every patient is questionable. AIM to check the usefulness of ordering a CT scan prior to HSCT and to study the relationship between anatomical variations and sinusitis. METHOD prospective stud...

Immunotherapy is the only treatment for allergy that has the potential to alter the natural course of the disease. Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) for grass pollen-induced rhino-conjunctivitis has been developed to make immunotherapy available to a broader group of allergic patients. In the largest clinical programme ever conducted with allergen-specific immunotherapy, over 1,700 adults and 260...

OBJECTIVE To study the point prevalence of allergic rhinitis and sinusitis in childhood asthma and to examine the relationship among them. METHODS In 250 children (age <13 y) with mild-to-moderte asthma, allergic rhinitis was diagnosed by clinical plus nasal eosinophilia criteria, and sinusitis was diagnosed clinically plus confirmation by computerized tomography scan. RESULTS The point pre...
