Abstract:
Odontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS) is an inflammation of the epithelial lining of the maxillary sinus mucosa caused by an odontogenic infection. This study reports a case of OMS associated with an endodontic infection in an upper first molar. The patient reported severe headache and was referred by an otorhinolaryngologist. Clinical examination revealed a periapical fistula associated with tooth 26 and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) revealed mucositis in the left maxillary sinus and close proximity of the palatal root of tooth 26 to this sinus. The diagnosis was odontogenic sinusitis associated with tooth 26 with necrotic pulp and a chronic periapical abscess. The tooth was submitted to root canal treatment. After 6 months, follow-up showed no symptoms and regression of the periapical lesions and mucositis. Root canal treatment is an effective procedure for the management of OMS caused by the lesions of endodontic origin.

Sinus Node Arrhythmias
Sinus Bradycardia: Originating from the sinoatrial (SA) node, sinus bradycardia involves slower impulses, resulting in a heart rate of less than 60 beats per minute (bpm). Causes include sleep, vagal stimulation, beta-blockers, hypothyroidism,...

Construction of Root Locus
For positive gain values, the root locus exists on the real axis to the left of an odd number of finite open-loop poles or zeros. The root locus starts at the open-loop poles and traces the paths of the closed-loop poles as the gain...
Properties of the Root Locus
To determine if a point lies on the root locus, the criterion involves the sum of angles contributed by all poles and zeros to that point. Specifically, this sum must be an odd multiple of 180 degrees. The gain at any point on...
