Gui Based Health Monitoring System Using Raspberry Pi
Now-a-days health problems like cardiac failure, lungfailuresheart related diseases are arising day by day at a very high rate. Due to these problems time to time health monitoring is very essential. A modern concept is health monitoring of a patient wirelessly. It is a major development in medical arena. Thus paper based on the monitoring of the patient that is done by the doctor continuously without actually visiting the patient. Health professionals have developed a brilliantandinexpensive healthmonitoringsystem for providing more comfortable living to the people suffering from various diseases using leading technologies like wireless communications,wearable andportableremote health monitoring device. As a result, visits of doctors to the patients constantly are decreasedas the information regarding patient's health directly reaches to doctor's monitor screen from anywhere the patient resides. Also, based on this doctors can save many lives by imparting them a quick valuable service. In this, IoT is becoming a major platform for many services applications, also using Raspberry Pi not just as a sensor node but also a controller here. Paper propose a generic health monitoring system as astep forwardto the progress made in this department tillnow
Comparison of effect of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid solution and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid paste on canal transportation using cone beam computed tomography: An in vitro study
Aims: The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of saline, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) 17% solution and EDTA paste on root canal transportation.
Subjects and Methods: Moderately curved mesiobuccal roots of 24 maxillary molars were standardized in length and randomized into one control and two experimental groups. All teeth were scanned by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to determine the root canal shape and measure the parameters required for comparison before instrumentation. The canals were instrumented with 0.06 taper rotary files to size #25. All groups were irrigated with saline. Group 1 was prepared with RC-Prep (Premier Dental, Philadelphia, PA, USA) and in Group 2, EDTA 17% solution (Pulpdent Corp., Watertown, MA, USA) was used. After preparation, postinstrumentation scan was performed. Pre- and post-instrumentation images were obtained at three levels, 3 mm from the apical end of the root (apical level) and 3 mm below the orifice from the coronal level (15 mm from the apex) and the mid-root level (8 mm from the apex) were compared using CBCT software. The amount of canal transportation was assessed.
Statistical Analysis Used: The data were analyzed with one-way analysis of variance (α = 0.05) and the Tukey post hoc test.
Results: Less canal transportation was observed in experimental groups than the control group. Group 1 showed significantly less canal transportation than Group 2 and control group.
Conclusions: EDTA preparation had a significant effect on canal transportation
