Calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] has been widely used as an intracanal medicament especially in treatment of periapical lesion. This case report will discuss about calcium hydroxide as intracanal medicament in a periapical lesion of an upper left central incisor. This case describes about treatment of periapical lesion with suspect of infected cyst with symptoms and root resorption. Root canal preparation was done by crown down technique using protaper hands universal from S1/27mm until F5/27mm. Calcium hydroxide paste was continuously applicated every 2 weeks as intracanal medicament until the periapical index (PAI) of lesion decrease, in this case PAI decreased from scale 5 until scale 2 during three months recall. Calcium hydroxide supports tissue repair, stimulates fibroblast formation and damage the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria, denature their proteins or damage the DNA by its alkaline property. As conclusion, the use of calcium hydroxide successfully decrease the periapical lesion index in the periapical radiograph examination and can be considered as a simple and effective medicament for endodontic infection.

J’ai 49 ans et je suis dialysée depuis que j’ai 36 ans, soit 13 ans de dialyse. J’écris ce témoignage en espérant qu’il trouve une certaine universalité et qu’il fasse écho bien qu’étant le récit d’une expérience de vie singulière. Le cœur du témoignage aborde essentiellement les quatre types de dialyses dont j’ai bénéficié. Je relate les points négatifs et les plus-values de chaque type de traitement. Je ne développe pas le sujet de ma double greffe rein/pancréas en 2003 qui n’aura tenu qu’une année pour le pancréas et un peu plus pour le rein. Désormais en hyper-immunité, je suis à nouveau en attente de greffe mais consciente de la faible probabilité de trouver un greffon compatible. C’est maintenant qu’il faut vivre en s’accommodant du traitement sous dialyse. Se préparer à une greffe tout en vivant pleinement le présent.C’est « mon petit témoignage », petit par rapport à ce que représente ma modeste expérience de dialysée, petit par rapport à l’histoire de chacun, à nos différences de vies et d’envies.

BACKGROUND: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are considered today a very important group of medication, with a wide variety of therapeutic use, in different areas of modern medicine. Despite their beneficial effects on the patient, these drugs show a high incidence of side effects, mainly in the gastrointestinal tract. The physiopathological mechanisms of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs induced lesions and the gastric mucosa defense mechanism became an important source for medical research, especially those which try to evaluate the role of nitric oxide as a cytoprotective agent. AIM: To define a possible cytoprotective effect of a nitric oxide donor, isosorbide dinitrate, on the gastric mucous of rats submitted to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ketoprofen treatment. METHODS: Adult male Wistar rats, previously submitted to starvation for 24 hours and divided in three groups: group I (standard): animals that received isotonic saline solution intragastric by gavage and intravenous. Group II (control-ketoprofen): animals that received isotonic saline solution intragastric by gavage and ketoprofen intravenous. Group III (nitrate/ketoprofen): animals that received 2mM solution of isosorbide dinitrate intragastric by gavage and ketoprofen intravenous. Later on, these animals were sacrificed and had their stomach removed and submitted to macroscopical, microscopical and biochemical studies. The evaluated parameters were: a) gastric lesion index; b) gastric mucous layer thickness; c) gastric tissue nitrate/nitrite (NOx) concentration and d) gastric tissue malondialdehyde concentration. RESULTS: a) Gastric lesion index evaluation showed a smaller statistically significant incidence on the animals of group III; b) group III showed a thicker mucous layer, which also was statistically significant, when compared to group II; c) the variation on tissue nitrate/nitrite concentration was similar in all three groups, without statistical significance when compared to each other. CONCLUSION: Isosorbide dinitrate has a cytoprotective activity on the gastric mucosa of rats submitted to ketoprofen action.
