PURPOSE Preparation of a one-piece dental implant abutment is often needed to achieve a proper emergence profile for a definitive restoration. However, this procedure may compromise osseointegration through the production of heat. The aim of this study was to measure heat production during implant abutment preparation with different volumes of water irrigation using a one-piece implant system. ...

UNLABELLED Continence disturbances, especially fecal soiling, are difficult to treat. Irrigation of the distal part of the large bowel might be considered as a nonsurgical alternative for patients with impaired continence. PURPOSE This study is aimed at evaluating the clinical value of colonic irrigation. METHODS Thirty-two patients (16 females; median age, 47 (range, 23-72) years) were off...

BACKGROUND Electrode cooling by circulating fluid within the electrode (closed loop) or open irrigation facilitates radiofrequency (RF) ablation. This study compared lesion parameters between closed loop and open irrigation with the use of a canine model. METHODS AND RESULTS In 8 anesthetized dogs, the skin over the thigh muscle was incised and raised, forming a cradle superfused with heparin...

BACKGROUND Intra-operative surgical site irrigation (lavage) is common practice in surgical procedures in general, with all disciplines advocating some form of irrigation before incision closure. This practice, however, has been neither standardized nor is there compelling evidence that it effectively reduces the risk of surgical site infection (SSI). This narrative review addresses the laborat...

INTRODUCTION Endodontic treatment removes all pathogens, such as Enterococcus faecalis from pulp and root canals. The aim of this study is to assess the usefulness of sodium hypo-chlorite (NaOCl) in removing E. faecalis from the root canal used with three different irrigation methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was conducted on freshly extracted maxillary incisors. After biomechanical p...

current study was carried out with aim to evaluate the effect of pressurized irrigation methods and furrow irrigation method with municipal effluent on distribution of salinity and moisture in the soil profile. the experimental study was designed by split plot layout with three irrigation methods including furrow, surface drip (sd) irrigation and subsurface drip irrigation (ssd) and two water q...

Objectives: We aimed to investigate the efficacy of intraabdominal irrigation with warm saline on pain management and gastrointestinal functions in the postoperative period among patients that underwent cesarean section under spinal anesthesia. Material and methods: Ninety-one women who underwent cesarean section under spinal anesthesia were enrolled in our study. Patients were allocated to eit...

in order to study the effects of pgpr application methods on proline and soluble sugars content of yarrow (achillea millefolium l.) under drought stress conditions an experiment was performed at islamic azad university, yadegar-e-imam khomeini (rah) shahre-rey branch. this experiment was carried out in a split plot arrangement with randomized complete block design in three replications. experim...

In a field experiment the effects of irrigation with saline drainage water (seasonal average of 4.5 dS/m) and non-saline water (0.55 dS/m) applied by two different water management strategies (cyclic or blended saline water with non-saline water in different ratios) and two different irrigation methods (drip or furrow) were studied on growth and productivity of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum M...

A simulation model was developed to estimate the effect of deficit irrigation upon crop yield. The model was designed to provide relative yield estimates for numerous combinations of irrigation system, crop growth and irrigation management parameters. A daily soil moisture balance was used to predict evaporation and transpiration from which crop yields were estimated. Gross irrigation water req...
